Guilford at a glance
Half of Guilford's homes were built before 1973, which makes it a mid-century town at heart. Original driveways, patios and steps from that building boom are coming due at about the same time.
85% of Guilford's homes are single-family detached and 85% are owner-occupied, so most of the work is homeowners planning a project, or several.
The median home in Guilford was built in 1973, newer than the 1960s house that's typical statewide. That's newer than nearby North Haven, where the median is 1964.

By property
Building in Guilford
- Shoreline
- Near Long Island Sound, salt air speeds up surface wear, and FEMA flood zones can change what an addition's foundation has to look like.
- Permits
- Connecticut has one statewide building code, so footings go 42 inches deep in Guilford like everywhere else. What's local is the paperwork: Guilford'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.
