Tips

Re-Roof does not have its own line on the Residential Construction section of the Review Times page; per the governing Review Times page (updated 2/12/2026), it falls under the catch-all 'Other Residential (Not listed above)' category, which targets 5 (prescreen) / 15 (1st department review) / 10 (2nd+ review) business days — confirmed as the governing figure for this permit type.
Contact Building Safety directly (buildingsafety@goodyearaz.gov) to confirm permit necessity for a specific re-roof scope, since the Homeowner Permit FAQs page states permit necessity for roofing repair/replacement is scope-dependent ('Further information is needed in order to determine if a permit is needed').
Siding is also generally plan-exempt per the Homeowner Permit FAQs page, similar to re-roofing.
