Loveland is about 32.5 miles north-west 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.
Loveland is a city of roughly 76,378, and Loveland sits in Larimer County. Loveland sits along the Big Thompson River, south of Fort Collins, at about 4,990 feet.
Below is what Loveland'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.
City of Loveland Building Division (Development Services). A building permit is required for new construction, additions or alterations; residential applications are emailed to eplan-res@cityofloveland.org. City pages also refer to the division as the Building Department.

A Minor Right-of-Way permit is required for concrete work such as driveway approaches and sidewalks, and a Major ROW permit for any other work in the right-of-way; applications go to Public Works (2525 W. 1st St. or engineering@cityofloveland.org) with a certificate of insurance and a traffic control plan. Working without a ROW permit costs double fees or $500, whichever is more.

No mandatory 2026 watering schedule is posted. Loveland Water and Power's June 1, 2026 summer guide recommends watering about three times a week during cooler hours, avoiding midday heat, windy days and watering right after rain, and checking its Water page or calling 970-962-3355 for current rules.

Dedicated irrigation backflow assemblies must be tested at least annually by a certified cross-connection control technician, and single-family homeowners are encouraged to test annually. Testers send reports to Loveland Water and Power (200 N. Wilson Ave.; questions 970-962-3721).

Concrete driveways, walkways, patios and repairs (concrete), new lawns and lawn repairs (sod installation), sprinkler repair and winterization (sprinkler repair), plus xeriscape and retaining walls, kitchen, bath and basement remodeling, flooring and interior painting. A job that spans more than one of those is still one crew and one point of contact.
Yes. Loveland is about 32.5 miles north-west of our home base in Brighton, a routine drive we make regularly. Loveland sits in Larimer County, and the permit question for your specific job gets answered before work starts, not after.
At about 4,990 feet, the Front Range gives a reasonably long season for concrete and landscape work, though the shoulder months swing hard. Interior work - remodeling, flooring, painting - runs year round, and winter is usually the easiest time to get it scheduled.
We work throughout these neighbouring communities as well: Johnstown (4.6 mi), Berthoud (5.5 mi), Windsor (10.3 mi). The full list is on our service area page.
