When you need this permit
- Building permit required for re-roofing (Casa Grande does not publish a like-for-like no-permit exemption comparable to some other Arizona cities; confirm scope-specific exemptions directly with the Development Center)
- Maximum of two layers of roof covering permitted; no more than two total layers of any roofing material may be applied
- Ice barrier underlayment is not required per the City's adopted design criteria (consistent with Casa Grande's desert climate — no ice-shield requirement)
- Applicant chooses between an in-person building inspection track or a drone building inspection track at time of permit application; both include plan review in the flat fee

Tips
- Casa Grande's fee schedule publishes two distinct re-roof permit tracks at different flat fees: standard in-person inspection ($125, includes plan review) versus drone inspection ($400, includes plan review) — the drone track costs more but may offer scheduling flexibility for hard-to-access roofs.
- Re-roofing is capped at a maximum of two layers of roof covering per the City's adopted design criteria; ice barrier underlayment is not required given the local desert climate (0 freezing index value).
- Review timeframe is drawn from the City's A.R.S. § 9-835 chart; re-roofing without other structural scope is treated as a residential building permit item, tracking the Single/Two-Family Residential 'Standard Plan' timeframe (2-business-day completeness + 20/20 business-day substantive review = 44 business days maximum) unless the Development Center processes it as a faster Miscellaneous/Single Trade item at the counter — confirm the specific track when applying, since the fee schedule treats it as a flat-fee Building Permit Fee line rather than a Miscellaneous single-trade line.
