Roofing in Novi
Novi's Building Division sits at 45175 Ten Mile Road, (248) 347-0415, and it is the office to call about a roof. We did not find a roofing-specific permit rule on the city pages we read, so the building department decides whether your re-roof needs one. LARA's Statewide Jurisdiction List shows Novi running its own building-code enforcement. The city's fee schedule has a $40 non-refundable application fee for alterations and repairs, but the pages never mention roofing, so we do not treat that line as a roof fee.
Our permit guide explains how to ask. Only 27.7 percent of homes were built before 1980, and the median home value is $399,100. Novi has fewer older roofs than most cities in this set. Oakland County's ground snow load is 25 psf. NOAA's Storm Events database (Jul 2024 to Jun 2026) lists 5 hail reports of 1 inch or larger and 37 wind reports of 50 knots or more for the county.
Reports naming Novi itself number 2 for wind, a minimum. Nearby cities include Wixom and Farmington Hills; see county storm history for the full counts.

The statewide estimates are on each service page, and the Michigan page lists them with what roofers are paid (the Michigan median in BLS data for May 2025 is $28.62 an hour, which is pay, not price) and the permit fees we could read. How we estimate costs.
Permits for roofing work in Novi
Many cities run their own building department, so start by asking the City of Novi building department who issues roofing permits.
Whether a re-roof needs a permit is decided city by city. Most of the cities whose pages we read ask for one, and Portage does not for a shingle-only replacement, so the building department is the office to ask.
