Building permits in Walnut Creek, CA
From Apr 27, 2026 to Oct 18, 2026, public permit records list 1,394 building permits with a Walnut Creek address. That's about 55.8 a week, and $271.5M in declared work.
Walnut Creek permits come from the City of Walnut Creek's report of the building permits it has issued, and we include every permit on it. That report only lists permits that are still open, so history before late October 2026 is partial: jobs that were already finished when we first pulled it are missing, and earlier weeks look smaller than they were. Of the 1,394 here, 931 are from the City of Walnut Creek and 463 are County permits for unincorporated land with a Walnut Creek address.
- Last 4 weeks: 92.8 a week, against 55.8 over 25 weeks.
- Most common work: remodel / general, then hvac.
- Median declared job: $17,000.
- 92% name a contractor. Most of the rest are owner-builder jobs.
- Biggest job in the period: $136.7M, the glen at heather farm project includes development of 302… (08/21/2026).
