Public-record contractor profile
Legal record: DOWBUILT INC
Why this profile appears
Dowbuilt Inc. is included because 3 selected Seattle construction permits explicitly describe retaining-wall, rockery, slope, drainage, foundation, or closely related site work. The records span Mar 22, 2022 through May 7, 2024 and place the documented work in Harrison/Denny-Blaine, Stevens and Madison Park.
The most recent selected record is permit 6926334-CN, issued May 7, 2024 in Harrison/Denny-Blaine. Its public scope says: “Grading landscaping construction of retaining walls and stairs accessory to single family residence per plans.”
Across the current exact SDCI dataset responses and manually checked Seattle Services Portal records, 0 of 3 selected records have a matching legal name, listed L&I principal, or Portal contractor license. 2 records do not currently publish a contractor identity. 1 record has an identity that requires manual review. The status for every project is shown below.
Permit scope, dates, status, and cost come from the exact official rows. A permit without a reproducible contractor-name match should be treated as a research lead, not proof that DOWBUILT INC performed that work. The profile also does not establish current availability, design responsibility, workmanship, customer satisfaction, or suitability for another property.
