Yes, roof replacement projects in North Great River require building permits from the Town of Islip. We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our service, ensuring your project meets local building codes and safety requirements.
The permit process typically takes 1-2 weeks and involves submitting detailed plans showing the roofing materials, installation methods, and structural considerations. Long Island’s coastal location means building codes include specific requirements for wind resistance and proper fastening that we incorporate into every installation.
Having proper permits protects you in several ways. It ensures the work meets safety standards, maintains your home’s insurance coverage, and prevents issues if you sell your home later. Some homeowners worry about permit costs, but they’re a small percentage of your total project cost and provide important legal protection. We include all permit fees in our written estimates so you know the complete investment upfront.
