After the great fires of 1676 and 1679, the neighborhood rebuilt in the red brick that still defines its dense streets, and later became the heart of Boston’s Italian-American community. In climate zone 5A, our RESNET-accredited raters bring fast, accurate energy ratings to these closely packed historic buildings while keeping every project compliant with Boston’s energy code.
Whether you are converting an old walk-up tenement near Hanover Street or modernizing a unit a block from the Paul Revere House, our certified HERS raters in the North End supply every document the City of Boston Inspectional Services Department requires for permits and final inspections.
Boston has adopted the Specialized Opt-in Stretch Energy Code (225 CMR Ch. 22), built on IECC 2021, requiring new construction and major renovations to be verified by a certified HERS rater. North End projects must meet air-tightness targets confirmed by blower door testing and duct leakage testing — exacting work inside the neighborhood’s tight, party-wall masonry tenements. We provide all documentation required by the City of Boston Inspectional Services Department.
