The Building Department page states: "The Larkspur Building Department reviews Land Use Applications and processes Building Permits within the Larkspur Town Limits only," and directs applicants to a Street Names and Addresses list to confirm whether a property is inside Town limits. "Building Permits are required for all new construction and most building projects both inside and outside of the building." "Our Building Permits and Inspections are provided by SAFEbuilt. You can schedule an inspection with SAFEbuilt at this number: 720-641-1956." Applicants are told to "check with the building department on any type of construction or remodeling you are planning to see if it requires a permit," referencing a "Do I Need a Permit?" quick-reference list. Contractor questions are directed to SAFEbuilt contact Tom Pitchford at 303-941-4429. Building Permits can be submitted to the Building Department for review, and "many permits can be processed in a day for minor projects," with a stated time-of-performance review table for projects needing more time. The Town's "Do I Need A Permit" list ("Permits are required on the following types of projects") explicitly includes "Re-roof over 100 square feet" among outside projects, alongside siding, room additions, and decks; the list notes "This is not a complete list of all types of projects."

The Town's Building Codes page ("The Town of Larkspur has adopted building codes and design criteria that are required to be followed") links Ordinance No. 2022-11 and a "Building Codes at a Glance" summary listing the adopted codes: the International Building, Residential, Mechanical, Fuel Gas, Plumbing, Fire, Energy Conservation, Property Maintenance, Existing Building, and Swimming Pool and Spa Codes, all 2018 Edition.
