Concrete, Landscaping & Remodeling in Kersey, Colorado
Kersey is about 30 miles north of our Brighton home base - a routine drive for us, and one we make regularly. Quote visits and scheduled work both fit our normal week here.
Working in Kersey
Kersey is a community of roughly 1,495 residents, and Kersey sits in Weld County. Kersey sits on the plains east of Greeley, at about 4,610 feet. There is open ground on most sides and very little natural shade or windbreak: lawns dry out from the edges in, irrigation coverage matters more than irrigation volume, and a patio or driveway takes sun and wind from every direction.
Below is what Kersey's own offices and water provider publish about permits, watering and backflow testing for the kind of work we do, checked October 13, 2026, with a link to each source.

Does a patio or driveway on private property need a building permit in Kersey?
Kersey's published rules don't say whether private flatwork needs a building permit; its IRC amendment requires exterior concrete flatwork (porches, patios, sidewalks, driveways and steps) at new dwellings, including warranty repair or replacement work, to be reinforced with at least 10-gauge welded wire mesh or other approved reinforcement (Code Sec. 18-45).
