Single-family homes make up 63% of West Hartford's housing; the rest is condos, two-families and apartments, which brings property managers and associations into the mix.

From our blog
Building in West Hartford
- Ledge
- Near the Talcott Mountain ridge, rock can sit close to the surface, which changes footing depths and where a patio can go.
- Right-of-way
- Most West Hartford streets have public sidewalks and curbs, so aprons and walks usually need a town permit.
- Permits
- Connecticut has one statewide building code, so footings go 42 inches deep in West Hartford like everywhere else. What's local is the paperwork: West Hartford's building department for structures, public works or engineering for the right-of-way, and the inland wetlands commission near water.
- Utilities
- We call 811 (Call Before You Dig) at least two full business days before every excavation.
