SANTA CLARITA VALLEY ROOF REPAIRS / INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Below are some important facts you should know before you start your new home or commercial roof repair or installation project through building permits and inspections for Santa Clarita Valley (Canyon Country, Newhall, Saugus, and Valencia. Adjacent unincorporated communities include Castaic, Stevenson Ranch, Val Verde, and the master planned community of Newhall Ranch) for all roof repairs or installations:

Any new roofing or roof repair done in Santa Clarita Valley will require a permit from the city’s’ Building and Safety and will involve two building inspections. The first of the two inspections is a proper roof nailing inspection, where an inspector will inspect the nailing pattern of the roofing materials and then a final roof inspection, to ensure the job was done correctly. The city of Santa Clarita, as well as other cities that are located within the Santa Clarita Valley have no minimum roofing material requirements but do follow the State of California’s Uniform Building Code. Note that if you do belong to a homeowners association there may be restrictions on the particular roofing materials or roof color you are allowed to install. For additional home or commercial roofing project information, you may want to contact Building and Safety at 661-255-4935, or online at Santa Clarita Building and Safety, or Los Angeles County Building and Safety.
