Construction hours in Englewood, CO — sometimes called construction noise rules or contractor work-hour ordinances — set when contractors can run power tools, hammers, and heavy equipment.
Englewood regulates construction noise through special limits in the noise ordinance. Under Colorado state law, construction activity is subject to industrial noise limits for the duration of the applicable construction permit. After-hours construction creating excessive noise may be cited.
Englewood's noise ordinance includes special limits for construction activity. Under Colorado's state noise statute CRS §25-12-103, construction is subject to noise levels specified for industrial zones during the permit period (or a reasonable period if no time limit is imposed). This effectively allows higher decibel levels during active construction hours compared to standard residential limits. However, construction occurring outside normal working hours that creates excessive noise in residential areas may still be cited under the city's general noise ordinance. Contact Community Development at 303-762-2342 or Code Compliance for specific construction hour restrictions.
