Tips

  • Marana's permit-exemption for re-roofing is narrower than it first appears: like-for-like material and underlayment-only work is exempt, but ANY sheathing/structural repair or a switch to tile roofing always requires a permit, regardless of the amount of roof area involved.
  • Re-roofing permits carry the flat $50 all-inclusive miscellaneous plan review fee.
  • Re-roofing is not one of the itemized Licensing Time Frames rows, so it falls under the Town's general 'Building permit (not listed elsewhere)' maximum time frame of 60/120/180 calendar days; simple miscellaneous permits typically process faster in practice.
