How to use this page

Three checks before acting on a local result

Confirm the permit authority. This page is scoped to New York City, NY. 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.

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.
