Re-roof permit checklist — Tooele, Utah
Assembled from Tooele’s own published permit rules. Every line below is quoted from a city document and linked to it. Nothing here is generated, estimated, or inferred from another jurisdiction.
Do you need a permit?
Tooele requires a permit for a re-roof.
Tooele City publishes named re-roof permit fee lines, which is the City's own evidence that re-roof permits are issued, though the City never states the requirement in a sentence. No exemption of any kind is published - there is no single-layer allowance, no squares or square-footage threshold, and no repair-versus-replacement distinction anywhere on the City site. Any exemption would flow from the state-adopted 2021 IRC, which Tooele does not reproduce, so no numeric threshold can be attributed to the City. Roof-relevant design criteria the City does publish (Building Codes and Design Criteria, 08-27-2025): ground snow load determined via the Utah State University snow load resource, Exposure C, 105 MPH wind, Climate Zone 5B, and Weathering: Severe.
