Roof replacement in Pinellas Park, FL

Why older Pinellas Park roofs need a closer look

About 56.7 percent of the city's homes were built before 1980, and 84.3 percent were built before 2000. Only 8.1 percent went up in 2010 or later. Most roofs on owner-occupied homes here are likely original or close to it.

Many homes in the city are single-family houses, and about 15.3 percent of housing units are mobile homes. Roof work on those two types can differ, so confirm the structure type with your building office before planning a job.

How a re-roof gets permitted and inspected in Pinellas Park

The city runs its own building department for permits, inspections and building threshold reports. Check the city's permit page before you start, because permits are not issued by the county for addresses inside city limits.

Under the 25 percent rule, no more than a quarter of a roof can be repaired or replaced in any 12-month period unless the whole roof covering is redone. If your existing roof was built or replaced to the 2007 Florida Building Code or later, only the repaired portion must meet the current code.

Questions

Roof replacement in Pinellas Park: questions

What is the 25% roof rule in Florida?

Under the 25 percent rule, no more than a quarter of a roof can be repaired or replaced within any single 12-month span. Not more than 25 percent of the roof area can be redone unless the entire roof covering is replaced. In Pinellas Park, check the city's permit office before starting, because a partial job can trigger a full re-roof requirement. For a roof built under the 2007 Florida Building Code or newer, the only section that has to satisfy current code is the part being repaired.

Who issues roofing permits in Pinellas Park?

The City of Pinellas Park issues its own roofing permits through its Permits, Inspections and BTRs office, so you do not apply to the county for an address inside city limits. Pinellas County Building Services handles unincorporated Pinellas and a few other cities, which is why the address matters. Confirm which office covers your property before you file, because submitting to the wrong office will delay the job.
