Redwood City Roofing FAQ

Are roofing permits over-the-counter in Redwood City?

Many qualifying roofing permits are handled this way, but scope still determines the exact path.

City systems commonly expect inspection requests several business days in advance.

Do full replacements need permits?

Most full reroofs do. We confirm the needed permit scope before field work.

UV-stable materials with good ventilation are common in this climate.

Can gutters and drainage be replaced during reroof?

Deck moisture findings are documented and corrected under the same coordinated permit flow.

Can I add skylights during reroof?

Yes, but include skylight work in the same permit sequence to keep inspections aligned.
