How to use this page

Three checks before acting on a local result

Confirm the permit authority. This page is scoped to Boston, MA. If a property is outside city limits or in a special district, confirm the local authority before using this as a planning path.

Keep permits and incentives separate. A rebate or utility incentive does not replace permit review, and an empty rebate section only means HomeReq has no approved local program record published for this project yet.

Open the official source before starting work. Use the source cards and verification dates as a trail back to the issuing department, utility, or program administrator.

Short-form permit for roof repair without structural changes

Boston's roof repair guide states that repairing a roof requires a short-form permit when no other structural changes are made. Roofing work should be checked with Inspectional Services before work starts, especially when the scope includes structural changes, roof deck work, solar attachments, insulation changes, landmark or historic-district review, or other work that could require long-form or additional agency review.
