Do I need approval to re-roof?

Requirements can vary depending on the building type, location, roof design and whether the roof
structure or materials are changing. Changing from tile to metal, for example, may require further assessment because it can affect the building structure.

We review your project and explain the likely documentation, approvals and inspections required beforework begins.

Existing or unapproved roofing work

If re-roofing work has been completed without final records, we can help assess the situation and identify the next steps. This may involve reviewing documents, arranging inspections or obtaining further certification information.
