Roofing in Mission, Texas
Hail beltYes, a permit is required to replace a roof in Mission, TX, issued by City of Mission - Inspections Division. Mission has published no re-roofing rule of its own: neither its building regulations (Code of Ordinances Chapter 18), its fee schedule, its permit applications nor the Inspections Division's page names roof work as either needing or not needing a permit. The permit requirement comes from the general permit provision of the residential code the City enforces, which nothing in Chapter 18 amends. The Residential Permit Application states "NO BUILDING SHOULD COMMENCE WITHOUT A BUILDING PERMIT" and that "Construction work (including sub-trades) requiring City permits that are initiated without such permits shall be subject to a double permit fee & the possibility of citations to the municipal court and/or the revocation of his/her City registration." The same form says "A residential building permit must be obtained by the general contractor prior to permits being issued for any sub-trades" and "Please allow 3-5 business days to pick up permit or you may inquire at (956) 580-8691 or (956) 580-8687." Inspections are requested at (956) 584-5161; "A $50 re-inspection fee (per trade) is due prior to any re-inspection being conducted.". Mission, Texas sits in one of the country's most hail-prone regions.
