Roofing permits & building code in Springfield

Roofing permit and contractor-licensing rules in Springfield are set locally by Town of Springfield. Colorado has no statewide roofing license, so registration is handled at the local level — always confirm the current requirements with the authority before starting work.

Adopted building code
No building code is currently adopted by ordinance: Ordinance No. 356 (July 13, 2023) repealed the town's building-code adoption (Municipal Code section 18-1), and the building-code sections of Chapter 18 are Reserved as of the code's Supplement 3 (codified through Ordinance No. 357, July 13, 2023; online content updated May 19, 2025). The 2006 International Fire Code remains adopted as the town's fire code.
Permit process
Springfield's Municipal Code Chapter 18 (Building Regulations) shows its building-code adoption sections repealed: the editor's note states "Ord. No. 356, adopted July 13, 2023, repealed section 18-1, which pertained to building code adopted and derived from Ord. No. 296 ... adopted July 10, 2008." Sections 18-1 through 18-24 are Reserved, so no locally adopted IRC/IBC edition is currently codified. The 2006 International Fire Code remains adopted (section 18-25), and electrical work requires a permit from the town electrical inspector under Chapter 18, Article III. The town's department list includes no building department; contact Town Hall to confirm current requirements before roofing work.
