Roofing permits in Highland Village
Know how the city reroof process fits the project.
A reroof follows the city permit process
Highland Village provides a specific reroof application for shingles and decking. The city's roofing instructions also require acknowledgment that a final inspection is needed. Those steps belong in the project plan before the old covering comes off.
The city's permit application page links to the roofing portal and reroof instructions. These sources were checked September 30, 2026. Use the current city process for the property's scope; older examples in the linked instructions should not be treated as current fees.
A permit concerns the municipal construction process. Any separate property restrictions on roof appearance or materials still need to be addressed for the home.
The Highland Village reroof application
The application connects the property, contractor and proposed work to the required city review.
- Confirm the address and scope
The city address and work being proposed determine the applicable application. Replacing shingles, repairing decking and altering roof structure should be described accurately rather than treated as the same project.
- Use the roofing permit process
The city's portal instructions identify a Re-Roof – Shingles/Decking permit. Its permit page says contractors must be registered with Highland Village. The application should follow the current portal requirements for the contractor and scope.
- Obtain the issued permit before work
The city's instructions require permits to be issued and paid for before work begins and available at the job site. Submitting an application is not the same as having the permit.
- Arrange the final inspection
The roofing application requires acknowledgment of a final inspection. Include that step in project closeout so it isn't mistaken for an optional part of the reroof.

One approval does not automatically provide the other.
