Camp Hill Borough - Codes Enforcement

Camp Hill Borough's Codes Enforcement office, at 2145 Walnut Street, Camp Hill, issues building permits, with plan review and inspections by a third-party agency; its published permit guidance restates the Uniform Construction Code's general permit rule and names no roof work. The Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code applies statewide, but Act 45 section 104(b) lists "Repairs to residential buildings" and alterations that make no structural or egress change among work it does not apply to, "except as might be required by ordinances in effect pursuant to section 303(b)(1) or adopted pursuant to section 503."

Contractor registration required
Required
Registration details
  • state_level: Home Improvement Consumer Protection Act, Act 132 of 2008, 73 P.S. 517.1 et seq.: registration with the Attorney General's Bureau of Consumer Protection before performing any home improvement over $500 (section 2, section 3(a)); persons whose home improvements totalled less than $5,000 in the previous taxable year are not "contractors" (section 2). Section 12 precludes local registration or licensing of home improvement contractors, with carve-outs for building permits, pre-existing tested trade licences, and local insurance standards adopted before January 1, 2006.
  • city_level: Section 79-5 of the Camp Hill Borough Code, the "Borough of Camp Hill Registration of Contractors Ordinance" (added 2000), says "No building permit shall be issued with respect to any improvements requiring a building permit until the contractor therefor has first registered with the Borough," requires annual renewal, and asks for proof of workers' compensation insurance or an affidavit of exemption.
Permit process note
No Camp Hill Borough text read names reroofing as permit work or as exempt. The Codes Enforcement FAQ page (read October 9, 2026), under "Building Permits," says "For both residential and commercial property: An owner or authorized agent who intends to construct, enlarge, alter, repair, move, demolish or change the occupancy of a building, structure and facility or to erect, install, enlarge, alter, repair, remove, convert or replace any electrical, gas, mechanical, or plumbing system regulated by the Uniform Construction Code shall first apply to the building code official and obtain the required permit." It names no roof work, and neither does the Borough's residential building permit application, whose type-of-improvement boxes are new construction, addition, alteration, repair, demolition, relocation, foundation only and change of use. Chapter 90 of the Borough Code adopts the Uniform Construction Code by reference, names no roof work and adds no permit clause of its own, and the Borough's earlier building code article, Chapter 79, Article I, is repealed except for contractor registration. A search of the whole Borough Code for "roof" and for "reroofing" found no permit provision naming roof work on houses. The Borough's 2026 fee schedule, Resolution No. 2025-18, adopts the 2026 Fee Schedule as an attached exhibit, but the published copy, two pages, has no exhibit attached; the residential application prices the Borough's fee at "$90.00 + 1.2% of project value" with third-party fees separate. Under state law, Act 45 section 104(b)(5) and (6) list "Alterations to residential buildings which do not make structural changes or changes to means of egress" and "Repairs to residential buildings" among work the Act does not apply to, "except as might be required by ordinances in effect pursuant to section 303(b)(1) or adopted pursuant to section 503," and 34 Pa. Code 403.62(c) says "A permit is not required for the exceptions listed in § 403.1(b) (relating to scope) and the following, if the work does not violate a law or ordinance." The Borough's FAQ restates the code's general permit rule without saying whether an ordinary reroof is work it reaches, the code names no roof work, and the Borough's current fee schedule exhibit is not published, so this record does not decide whether the Borough requires a permit for an ordinary reroof. The FAQ says "If you are unsure of which permits are required, you may email the Code Officer or the general codes email." The residential application says "Working without a permit is a citable offense, and strictly enforced" and that third-party review and inspection fees are due when the permit is picked up. Section 79-5 of the Borough Code says "No building permit shall be issued with respect to any improvements requiring a building permit until the contractor therefor has first registered with the Borough." The office is open Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 4:30 pm, at 717-737-3457. Read for this answer: Chapter 90, Construction Codes, Uniform, and Chapter 79, Building Construction, of the Borough Code in full; every page of a search of the whole Borough Code for "roof" and for "reroofing"; the Codes Enforcement, FAQ and Building Permits pages; the residential building permit application; and the 2026 fee schedule resolution.
Adopted code
The 2021 International Residential Code, as adopted by the State in the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code (UCC). 34 Pa. Code 403.21(a)(7) adopts "The 'International Residential Code of 2021,' except that:" followed by the State's list of exclusions and modifications, effective January 1, 2026 (55 Pa.B. 7701). None of the State's changes touches Chapter 9, Roof Assemblies, or Section R803, Roof Sheathing, so those apply as the International Code Council publishes them. Work on existing buildings is also pointed to the State's existing-building code: "The repair, alteration, change of occupancy, addition and relocation of existing buildings must comply with Chapter 34 of the 'International Building Code of 2021' or with the 'International Existing Building Code of 2021'" (34 Pa. Code 403.21(f)). The UCC is the minimum everywhere in the state: "no municipality may propose or enact any ordinance which is less than the minimum requirement of the Uniform Construction Code" (Pennsylvania Construction Code Act, Act 45 of 1999, section 503(b)). The Act also lists work it "shall not apply to", including "Alterations to residential buildings which do not make structural changes or changes to means of egress" or to "Repairs to residential buildings," in each case "except as might be required by ordinances" kept in force under section 303(b)(1) or adopted under section 503 (Act 45 section 104(b)(5) and (6); 34 Pa. Code 403.1(b)(8) and (9)). The Act defines a repair as "The reconstruction or renewal of any part of an existing building for the purpose of its maintenance." So whether the code's roofing rules reach a given house reroof depends on the municipality's own ordinances. Everything above is Pennsylvania state law, the same in every municipality. Locally, Camp Hill Borough administers the code itself: Section 90-1 of the Borough Code (Ord. No. 1011, May 12, 2004) says "Camp Hill Borough hereby elects to administer and enforce the provisions of the Pennsylvania Construction Code Act," and Section 90-2 adopts the Uniform Construction Code "as amended from time to time" as the municipal building code. Applications go to the Borough's Codes Enforcement office at 2145 Walnut Street, whose residential application says "Building permit plan reviews are conducted by a third-party inspection agency" and names Approved Code Services for third-party review and inspections, and "Work may not start until an official building permit has been issued by the Borough of Camp Hill." Chapter 90 changes nothing in the code's roofing provisions. The Borough's Building Permits page links reference sheets titled for Chapters 3 and 6 of the 2018 International Building Code and names no edition of the residential code; this record does not decide which residential edition the Borough applies.
Repair permit threshold
No Camp Hill Borough text read names reroofing as permit work or as exempt. The Codes Enforcement FAQ page (read October 9, 2026), under "Building Permits," says "For both residential and commercial property: An owner or authorized agent who intends to construct, enlarge, alter, repair, move, demolish or change the occupancy of a building, structure and facility or to erect, install, enlarge, alter, repair, remove, convert or replace any electrical, gas, mechanical, or plumbing system regulated by the Uniform Construction Code shall first apply to the building code official and obtain the required permit." It names no roof work, and neither does the Borough's residential building permit application, whose type-of-improvement boxes are new construction, addition, alteration, repair, demolition, relocation, foundation only and change of use. Chapter 90 of the Borough Code adopts the Uniform Construction Code by reference, names no roof work and adds no permit clause of its own, and the Borough's earlier building code article, Chapter 79, Article I, is repealed except for contractor registration. A search of the whole Borough Code for "roof" and for "reroofing" found no permit provision naming roof work on houses. The Borough's 2026 fee schedule, Resolution No. 2025-18, adopts the 2026 Fee Schedule as an attached exhibit, but the published copy, two pages, has no exhibit attached; the residential application prices the Borough's fee at "$90.00 + 1.2% of project value" with third-party fees separate. Under state law, Act 45 section 104(b)(5) and (6) list "Alterations to residential buildings which do not make structural changes or changes to means of egress" and "Repairs to residential buildings" among work the Act does not apply to, "except as might be required by ordinances in effect pursuant to section 303(b)(1) or adopted pursuant to section 503," and 34 Pa. Code 403.62(c) says "A permit is not required for the exceptions listed in § 403.1(b) (relating to scope) and the following, if the work does not violate a law or ordinance." State law sets no square-footage or percentage threshold for roof work; any threshold is set locally. The Uniform Construction Code "does not apply to" "Alterations to residential buildings which do not make structural changes or changes to means of egress, except as required by ordinances in effect under sections 303(b)(1) or 503 of the act" or to "Repairs to residential buildings, except as required by ordinances in effect under sections 303(b)(1) and 503 of the act" (34 Pa. Code 403.1(b)(8) and (9)), and "A permit is not required for the exceptions listed in § 403.1(b) (relating to scope) and the following, if the work does not violate a law or ordinance" (34 Pa. Code 403.62(c)). For houses the regulation adds: "An ordinary repair does not require a permit." Its list of work that is not an ordinary repair names cutting away a load-bearing wall, "The removal or cutting of any structural beam or load-bearing support," changes to a required means of egress, and new or relocated piping, wiring or mechanical work (34 Pa. Code 403.62(d)); roofing is not named. A municipality may require more: under Act 45 section 503(c) it "may enact ordinances pursuant to this section which adopt additional code requirements for alterations or repairs to residential buildings," after a public hearing and after filing the proposed ordinance with the Department of Labor and Industry. These rules concern a "Residential building," which the regulation defines as "Detached one-family and two-family dwellings and townhouses which are not more than three stories above grade plane in height with a separate means of egress and their accessory structures" (34 Pa. Code 401.1). Everything above is Pennsylvania state law, the same in every municipality. Locally, Camp Hill Borough administers the code itself: Section 90-1 of the Borough Code (Ord. No. 1011, May 12, 2004) says "Camp Hill Borough hereby elects to administer and enforce the provisions of the Pennsylvania Construction Code Act," and Section 90-2 adopts the Uniform Construction Code "as amended from time to time" as the municipal building code. Applications go to the Borough's Codes Enforcement office at 2145 Walnut Street, whose residential application says "Building permit plan reviews are conducted by a third-party inspection agency" and names Approved Code Services for third-party review and inspections, and "Work may not start until an official building permit has been issued by the Borough of Camp Hill." No Borough text read for this record sets a threshold for roof work.
Roof layer limit / recover
Two layers at most where the state code reaches the job. Pennsylvania adopts the 2021 International Residential Code without changing its reroofing section, R908 (34 Pa. Code 403.21(a)(7); the State's list of changes names no Chapter 9 section). Section R908.3.1.1 says "A roof recover shall not be permitted where any of the following conditions occur," and the third condition is "Where the existing roof has two or more applications of any type of roof covering." So one existing layer may be covered once, and a roof that already has two layers is torn off to the deck. The same section also bars a recover "Where the existing roof or roof covering is water soaked or has deteriorated to the point that the existing roof or roof covering is not adequate as a base for additional roofing" and "Where the existing roof covering is slate, clay, cement or asbestos-cement tile." The existing-building code the State also adopts, the 2021 International Existing Building Code (34 Pa. Code 403.21(f)), carries the same three conditions in Section 705.2.1.1. These rules bind work the Uniform Construction Code reaches. The Act does not apply to "Repairs to residential buildings" or to alterations that make no structural change, "except as might be required by ordinances" (Act 45 section 104(b)(5) and (6)), so whether R908 binds a particular house reroof turns on that exclusion and on the municipality's own ordinances. Everything above is Pennsylvania state law, the same in every municipality. Locally, Camp Hill Borough administers the code itself: Section 90-1 of the Borough Code (Ord. No. 1011, May 12, 2004) says "Camp Hill Borough hereby elects to administer and enforce the provisions of the Pennsylvania Construction Code Act," and Section 90-2 adopts the Uniform Construction Code "as amended from time to time" as the municipal building code. Applications go to the Borough's Codes Enforcement office at 2145 Walnut Street, whose residential application says "Building permit plan reviews are conducted by a third-party inspection agency" and names Approved Code Services for third-party review and inspections, and "Work may not start until an official building permit has been issued by the Borough of Camp Hill." Chapter 90 changes nothing in the code's reroofing provisions, and the Borough's pages say nothing on roof layers. The Borough's Building Permits page links reference sheets titled for Chapters 3 and 6 of the 2018 International Building Code and names no edition of the residential code; this record does not decide which residential edition the Borough applies.
Deck & sheathing requirements
State rules from the base code, where the state code reaches the job. Pennsylvania adopts the 2021 International Residential Code without changing Section R803, Roof Sheathing (34 Pa. Code 403.21(a)(7); the State's changes to Chapter 8 are to ridge framing and attic ventilation). Lumber roof sheathing follows Table R803.1: over rafters or beams 24 inches apart it must be at least 5/8 inch net thick. Wood structural panels "shall be identified for grade, bond classification and performance category by a grade mark or certificate of inspection issued by an approved agency," and their spans "shall not exceed the values set forth in Table R503.2.1.1(1) or APA E30." For shingles, "Asphalt shingles shall be fastened to solidly sheathed decks" (R905.2.1), and on any reroof "The structural roof components shall be capable of supporting the roof covering system and the material and equipment loads that will be encountered during installation of the roof covering system" (R908.2). These rules bind work the Uniform Construction Code reaches; the Act does not apply to "Repairs to residential buildings" or to alterations that make no structural change, "except as might be required by ordinances" (Act 45 section 104(b)(5) and (6)). Act 45 section 104(b)(5) excludes alterations "which do not make structural changes or changes to means of egress" and says only that "a structural change does not include a minor framing change needed to replace existing windows or doors"; 34 Pa. Code 403.62(d)(2) lists "The removal or cutting of any structural beam or load-bearing support" as not an ordinary repair. Neither names roof sheathing; this record does not decide whether replacing it is either. Everything above is Pennsylvania state law, the same in every municipality. Locally, Camp Hill Borough administers the code itself: Section 90-1 of the Borough Code (Ord. No. 1011, May 12, 2004) says "Camp Hill Borough hereby elects to administer and enforce the provisions of the Pennsylvania Construction Code Act," and Section 90-2 adopts the Uniform Construction Code "as amended from time to time" as the municipal building code. Applications go to the Borough's Codes Enforcement office at 2145 Walnut Street, whose residential application says "Building permit plan reviews are conducted by a third-party inspection agency" and names Approved Code Services for third-party review and inspections, and "Work may not start until an official building permit has been issued by the Borough of Camp Hill." Chapter 90 changes nothing in the code's roof sheathing provisions, and the Borough's pages draw no separate line for roof sheathing. The Borough's Building Permits page links reference sheets titled for Chapters 3 and 6 of the 2018 International Building Code and names no edition of the residential code; this record does not decide which residential edition the Borough applies.
Sales & use tax
6% Pennsylvania sales and use tax, with a local tax added on purchases made in Allegheny County (1%) and Philadelphia (2%). On a reroof the roofer pays the tax on the materials and does not add it to the homeowner's bill. The Department of Revenue says: "The Pennsylvania sales tax rate is 6 percent. By law, a 1 percent local tax is added to purchases made in Allegheny County, and 2 percent local tax is added to purchases made in Philadelphia." Roof work is a construction activity: the rule's list of items "presumed to become a permanent part of real estate" includes "Roofing (repairs)" (61 Pa. Code 31.11). For construction activities, "A contractor shall pay tax upon the purchase price ... of all property, including materials, equipment, components and supplies, which he furnishes and installs" (61 Pa. Code 31.12(a)(1)), and the rule's example says the contractor "does not charge sales tax on this transaction to his customer. The contractor may include the tax he must pay in his bid proposal but not as a separately stated item." Apart from limited exceptions set out in the rule, the same holds on jobs for tax-exempt owners: "a contractor erecting a building, repairing a roof, replacing a door for a governmental agency, ... school district, charitable or religious organization, and the like, shall pay tax upon the property which he consumes" (61 Pa. Code 31.13(a)). Everything above is Pennsylvania state law, the same in every municipality. Camp Hill Borough is in Cumberland County. The Borough's permit pages and application say nothing on sales tax.

Roofing questions: Borough of Camp Hill, PA

When does a roof repair need a permit in Borough of Camp Hill, PA?

No Camp Hill Borough text read names reroofing as permit work or as exempt. The Codes Enforcement FAQ page (read October 9, 2026), under "Building Permits," says "For both residential and commercial property: An owner or authorized agent who intends to construct, enlarge, alter, repair, move, demolish or change the occupancy of a building, structure and facility or to erect, install, enlarge, alter, repair, remove, convert or replace any electrical, gas, mechanical, or plumbing system regulated by the Uniform Construction Code shall first apply to the building code official and obtain the required permit." It names no roof work, and neither does the Borough's residential building permit application, whose type-of-improvement boxes are new construction, addition, alteration, repair, demolition, relocation, foundation only and change of use. Chapter 90 of the Borough Code adopts the Uniform Construction Code by reference, names no roof work and adds no permit clause of its own, and the Borough's earlier building code article, Chapter 79, Article I, is repealed except for contractor registration. A search of the whole Borough Code for "roof" and for "reroofing" found no permit provision naming roof work on houses. The Borough's 2026 fee schedule, Resolution No. 2025-18, adopts the 2026 Fee Schedule as an attached exhibit, but the published copy, two pages, has no exhibit attached; the residential application prices the Borough's fee at "$90.00 + 1.2% of project value" with third-party fees separate. Under state law, Act 45 section 104(b)(5) and (6) list "Alterations to residential buildings which do not make structural changes or changes to means of egress" and "Repairs to residential buildings" among work the Act does not apply to, "except as might be required by ordinances in effect pursuant to section 303(b)(1) or adopted pursuant to section 503," and 34 Pa. Code 403.62(c) says "A permit is not required for the exceptions listed in § 403.1(b) (relating to scope) and the following, if the work does not violate a law or ordinance." State law sets no square-footage or percentage threshold for roof work; any threshold is set locally. The Uniform Construction Code "does not apply to" "Alterations to residential buildings which do not make structural changes or changes to means of egress, except as required by ordinances in effect under sections 303(b)(1) or 503 of the act" or to "Repairs to residential buildings, except as required by ordinances in effect under sections 303(b)(1) and 503 of the act" (34 Pa. Code 403.1(b)(8) and (9)), and "A permit is not required for the exceptions listed in § 403.1(b) (relating to scope) and the following, if the work does not violate a law or ordinance" (34 Pa. Code 403.62(c)). For houses the regulation adds: "An ordinary repair does not require a permit." Its list of work that is not an ordinary repair names cutting away a load-bearing wall, "The removal or cutting of any structural beam or load-bearing support," changes to a required means of egress, and new or relocated piping, wiring or mechanical work (34 Pa. Code 403.62(d)); roofing is not named. A municipality may require more: under Act 45 section 503(c) it "may enact ordinances pursuant to this section which adopt additional code requirements for alterations or repairs to residential buildings," after a public hearing and after filing the proposed ordinance with the Department of Labor and Industry. These rules concern a "Residential building," which the regulation defines as "Detached one-family and two-family dwellings and townhouses which are not more than three stories above grade plane in height with a separate means of egress and their accessory structures" (34 Pa.

Can you roof over an existing roof in Borough of Camp Hill, PA?

Two layers at most where the state code reaches the job. Pennsylvania adopts the 2021 International Residential Code without changing its reroofing section, R908 (34 Pa. Code 403.21(a)(7); the State's list of changes names no Chapter 9 section). Section R908.3.1.1 says "A roof recover shall not be permitted where any of the following conditions occur," and the third condition is "Where the existing roof has two or more applications of any type of roof covering." So one existing layer may be covered once, and a roof that already has two layers is torn off to the deck. The same section also bars a recover "Where the existing roof or roof covering is water soaked or has deteriorated to the point that the existing roof or roof covering is not adequate as a base for additional roofing" and "Where the existing roof covering is slate, clay, cement or asbestos-cement tile." The existing-building code the State also adopts, the 2021 International Existing Building Code (34 Pa. Code 403.21(f)), carries the same three conditions in Section 705.2.1.1. These rules bind work the Uniform Construction Code reaches. The Act does not apply to "Repairs to residential buildings" or to alterations that make no structural change, "except as might be required by ordinances" (Act 45 section 104(b)(5) and (6)), so whether R908 binds a particular house reroof turns on that exclusion and on the municipality's own ordinances. Everything above is Pennsylvania state law, the same in every municipality. Locally, Camp Hill Borough administers the code itself: Section 90-1 of the Borough Code (Ord.

Chapter 90 changes nothing in the code's reroofing provisions, and the Borough's pages say nothing on roof layers. The Borough's Building Permits page links reference sheets titled for Chapters 3 and 6 of the 2018 International Building Code and names no edition of the residential code; this record does not decide which residential edition the Borough applies.

Do roofing contractors need a license or registration in Borough of Camp Hill, PA?

Yes.

What building code does Borough of Camp Hill, PA use?

The 2021 International Residential Code, as adopted by the State in the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code (UCC). 34 Pa. Code 403.21(a)(7) adopts "The 'International Residential Code of 2021,' except that:" followed by the State's list of exclusions and modifications, effective January 1, 2026 (55 Pa.B. 7701).

Work on existing buildings is also pointed to the State's existing-building code: "The repair, alteration, change of occupancy, addition and relocation of existing buildings must comply with Chapter 34 of the 'International Building Code of 2021' or with the 'International Existing Building Code of 2021'" (34 Pa. Code 403.21(f)). The UCC is the minimum everywhere in the state: "no municipality may propose or enact any ordinance which is less than the minimum requirement of the Uniform Construction Code" (Pennsylvania Construction Code Act, Act 45 of 1999, section 503(b)). The Act also lists work it "shall not apply to", including "Alterations to residential buildings which do not make structural changes or changes to means of egress" or to "Repairs to residential buildings," in each case "except as might be required by ordinances" kept in force under section 303(b)(1) or adopted under section 503 (Act 45 section 104(b)(5) and (6); 34 Pa. Code 403.1(b)(8) and (9)). The Act defines a repair as "The reconstruction or renewal of any part of an existing building for the purpose of its maintenance." So whether the code's roofing rules reach a given house reroof depends on the municipality's own ordinances. Everything above is Pennsylvania state law, the same in every municipality.
