DOB permit check for roofing, with limited non-structural roof repair exemption

NYC DOB's permit guidance says most construction in New York City requires approval and permits, but lists non-structural roof repair among examples of work that does not need a permit. Roofing scopes should be confirmed with DOB because roof replacement, structural work, roof penetrations, solar or mechanical equipment support, facade or landmark issues, and work outside non-structural repair may need DOB or other agency approvals.
