Home / Roofing by City / Plymouth, Indiana

Yes — a permit is required to replace a roof in Plymouth, IN, issued by City of Plymouth Building Commissioner. WHERE. The Building Commissioner's office is at 111 N Center St, Plymouth, IN 46563, on (574) 936-2824, fax (574) 936-5256, with Dennis Manuwal Jr. as Building Commissioner. The Commissioner is also the City's Zoning Administrator and Floodplain Manager, so the building permit and the Improvement Location Permit come from the same office. Applications and contractor registration are online through the City's GovWell portal. BEFORE APPLYING. The City's checklist says its items "must be completed, submitted, and approved prior to applying for any permit": a site plan with dimensions to lot lines, an assigned address, the list of contractors and subcontractors, and their City registration, among others. FEES. Under the codified schedule from Ord. 2024-2238 a residential roof permit is $75 and a commercial one $100. Ord. 2026-2261, passed and signed June 8, 2026 with its own stated effective date of October 1, 2026, replaces both with .05 percent of project valuation, with minimums of $75 residential and $100 commercial. INSPECTIONS. Section 153.10 has the Commissioner designate, permit by permit, the stage at which each inspection must be requested, with 24 hours' notice. The only stages the ordinance itself fixes are foundations before concrete and electrical, mechanical, plumbing or insulation work before it is covered. No roofing stage is fixed, so ask when the permit issues whether the deck must be seen. A re-inspection caused by non-compliance costs $30, and so does a late inspection request.
