City of Zachary to begin enforcing new roofing permit rules. What to know

BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) — Starting Aug. 1, the City of Zachary will issue permits for roof replacements. They will also conduct inspections for all re-roofing projects.

The move comes in response to House Bill 85, recently signed into law by Gov. Jeff Landry, which requires municipalities and parishes across Louisiana to regulate roofing work more closely.

Cities and parishes must make sure that all roof construction and re-roofing projects follow the new state building codes.

  • Commercial and non-residential buildings must follow the standards in Chapter 15 of the International Building Code.
  • One- and two-family homes need to follow Chapters 8 and 9 of the International Residential Code.

In Zachary, anyone who wants to replace or re-roof their roof must get a permit. They also need to pass an inspection to follow the new codes.
