Commercial Roof

Replacement, repair or re-cover a roof on an existing commercial or multifamily structure

Note: Roof repairs covering less than 100 sq. ft. (1 square) do not require a permit, provided the work does not involve repairing trusses or rafters; strictly for roof covering; any modifications to the roof system or structure requires a Commercial Remodel permit.
