From the office of Code Enforcement.
Roofing Guidelines:
-Please use contractors that are registered and bonded with the City of Midland.
-It is recommended to have the contractor provide proof of general liability insurance.
-Permits are not required unless structural work or major sheathing/decking replacement is required.
-It is recommended that glass skylights have laminated glass on the lowest layer, when repaired.
Recovering of a roof:
-Is allowed when there are LESS than two layers of roofing already installed and the existing layers are not water soaked or deteriorated to the point of being adequate as a base.
-If there are MORE than two layers of roofing, the existing roof must be removed to the deck prior to the installation of new roofing.
-The deck is required to have an underlayment installed prior to the new shingle installation.
