Landscaping in Boston: what's different here
Boston's stock is old — triple-deckers, brick rowhouses and converted condos, much of it built between 1890 and 1930 with original wiring, boilers and drain lines.
What it costs here: Boston labor and permit costs run above the national average, and third-floor walk-ups, narrow one-way streets and scarce parking add hours to jobs that look routine.

Permits and rules in Boston
Inspectional Services issues the permits
Plumbing, gas, electrical and structural work is permitted through Boston's Inspectional Services Department. Condo work may also need building or board sign-off.
Historic districts and lead paint both apply
Exterior changes in a historic district need review, and pre-1978 buildings require lead-safe practices. Both add lead time, so plan them into the schedule.
