Rogers County's FAQ "Do I need a building permit?" states: "Building permits are required for all areas of Rogers County for residential and commercial permanent structures." Appendix G (Building Codes, Licensing & Responsibilities) to the City of Claremore-Rogers County Metropolitan Zoning Ordinance states, under "Permit Required": "Any owner or authorized agent who intends to construct, enlarge, alter, repair, move, demolish or change the occupancy of a building or structure, or to erect, install, enlarge, alter, repair, remove, convert or replace any electrical, gas, mechanical or plumbing system, the installation of which is regulated by this ordinance, or to cause any such work to be done, shall first make application to the City/County building office and obtain the required permit," noting "Some work maybe exempt for the building permit as provided by adopted code." Applications are submitted through the county's GovWell permit portal. The Building & Code Enforcement page lists Randy Jones as Deputy Director of Building Safety & Inspection Services.

Appendix G states, under "Inspection Required": "Work shall not be done beyond the point indicated in each successive inspection within the adopted code without first obtaining the approval of the building official. The building official, upon notification, shall make the requested inspections and shall either indicate the portion of the construction that is satisfactory as completed, or shall notify the permit holder or an agent of the permit holder wherein the same fails to comply with this code. Any portions that do not comply shall be corrected and such portion shall not be covered or concealed until authorized by the building official."
