Roof Permits Now Required See Who Applies (2-2007)

As per discussion at the January 2007 Board Meeting the Building Department is requiring Roofing Permits when installing a new roof or re-roofing when two or more layers exist. This is due to the fact that the Current Edition of the NYS Residential Code instituted new requirements for roof construction and even stricter installation instructions for roofs located in the 110 mph Windzone which is where we are located. As per Section R907.3 of the NYS Residential Code :

"New roof coverings shall not be installed without first removing the existing roof coverings where any of the following conditions occur:

  1. Where the eixsting roof of roof covering is water-soaked or had deteriorated to the poing that the existing roof or roof covering is not adequate as a base for additional roofing.
  2. Where the existing roof covering is wood shake, slate, clay, cement or asbestos-cement tile.
  3. Where the existing roof has TWO or MORE application os any type of roof covering.

Exceptions :

  1. Complete and separate roofing systems, such as standing-seam metal roof systems... In simple terms, any new roof or re-roofing where there are two or more layers present will now require a building permit from the Village of Port Washington North Building Department.
