Inspection process

  1. 1

    Mid-Roof

    Required only for solar shingles, tile, slate, stone-coated steel, EPDM, flat roofs, and similar reroofs — no more than 25-50% of the roof may be complete prior to this inspection. NOT required for standard residential asphalt shingle reroofs.

  2. 2

    Final

    Required for all roof permit applications; residential asphalt shingle applications only need to schedule this Final Inspection

Tips

  • Only 35 residential roof inspections are allowed per day Town-wide, and all occur between 8 a.m. and 12 p.m. — schedule early, especially after hailstorms when demand spikes.
  • Standard residential asphalt shingle reroofs only need a Final inspection — no mid-roof inspection required, unlike tile, slate, or flat/membrane roofs.
  • No same-day inspection requests are accepted; requests go through the eTrakit account.
  • A permit isn't required for minor repairs or less than 100 sq ft (one square) of roofing — but any partial replacement must still cover the entire roof plane.
