Tips

  • Aurora requires ice barrier underlayment on reroofs city-wide (per Form #A200 Engineering Design Criteria) — unlike some warmer/lower-elevation jurisdictions that only require it above a certain elevation.
  • A combined roof-and-siding flat-rate permit ($328) may be more economical than filing separate roofing ($254) and siding ($99) permits if both are being replaced together.
  • Ground snow load (40 psf) sets minimum roofing structural/attachment requirements per Aurora's amended Table R301.2(1).
