Do Roof Permits and Snow Loads Change From Town to Town?
Yes. Each city with its own building department sets its own re-roof permit fee and the snow load homes are designed for, and homes outside city limits get permits from their county. Here's how four cities compare.
| City | Roof snow load for homes | Residential re-roof permit |
|---|---|---|
| Coeur d'Alene | 40 psf | $50 processing fee plus $100 to $250 by roof size |
| Post Falls | 40 psf | $155 flat fee |
| Hayden | 40 psf south of Miles Avenue, 50 psf north | Fee based on the contract value |
| Rathdrum | Not listed on the city's fee or permit pages | $150 with tear-off |
We pull the permit wherever you live. For how permits work across the area, including Kootenai County, see our guide to Idaho roofing permits in Kootenai County, and for what snow weighs on a roof, our North Idaho snow load guide explains it.
