Apply for an Orlando residential roof permit
For properties confirmed inside City of Orlando, the City's official residential re-roof page links a dedicated 3-page re-roof application (Rev 12/24) with a scope-of-work page. The form directs applicants to email it to [email protected] with 'New Permit' in the subject. Homeowners acting as owner-builders must sign the City's declaration in person. For work exceeding $5,000, the City requires a recorded Notice of Commencement before the first inspection. The City requires a roof dry-in/in-progress inspection (code 125) AND a final inspection (code 600), plus an inspection affidavit before final. The City's roof page still LINKS an outdated March 2022 affidavit quoting the 2020/7th Edition code. A separate newer City-hosted February 2024 affidavit quotes the 2023/8th Edition code, but the roof page does not link it and the City has not confirmed which affidavit it currently accepts. The previously listed January 2023 fee schedule is superseded as the latest City-hosted document by a schedule labeled effective January 2026; post-July 2026 adoption and the project's payable fee remain unconfirmed. Neither government PDF alone proves a sellable Permit Pack. This is official sourced guidance, NOT a certified sellable Permit Pack.
