Roofing in Boca Raton
Boca Raton's fee schedule has no separate roofing row. Item (4), additions, alterations and repairs, names roofing, re-roofing and storm shutters, at a $100.00 minimum for the first $500 of valuation and 1.60% of the remaining valuation. A re-roof that needs a Historic Preservation Board Certificate of Appropriateness is listed at $250.00 on that list. The city's Code in Effect page names the Florida Building Code's 8th Edition (2023) as current.
Applications, fee payment and inspections go through Boca eHub, and plan files through Boca ePlans (ProjectDox). An owner/builder permit covers only a single-family home the owner lives in, with sections 7 and 8 notarized. The city won't accept an application a contractor fills in for an owner/builder. The department at 200 NW 2nd Avenue answers 561-393-7930 Monday to Friday, 8am to 4:00pm, except Wednesday until 3pm. After a storm, its Post-Storm Permitting & Recovery Guide says fees may be waived or reduced under s. 553.7922, and emergency repairs that normally need a permit must be applied for by the next business day.
ACS figures for 2020-2024 date Boca Raton's median home to 1983. Boca Raton is in Palm Beach County, outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so its roofs aren't under the zone's Miami-Dade and Broward rules.
