Tips
- Residential (single-family, not commercial or multi-family) reroofing is a One-Stop Permit — no plan review, 1 business day, per the Building Permit Classifications page.
- Commercial and multi-family reroofs and stand-alone demolition permits share the same 5-business-day review track, per the Building Permit Review Schedule.
- The mid-roof inspection is non-negotiable — plan for it even on a simple residential reroof; the three fallback options exist specifically because it is commonly missed.
