How each fee is calculated

Roof replacement

Fee basis: Based on project value.

Project value for the formula: low $8,000, typical $12,000, high $22,000.

City of Chandler Citywide Fee Schedule, effective March 2, 2026, section 4.6 Building Safety, retrieved Sep 1, 2026. These totals are a City of Chandler permit from City of Chandler Development Services, Building Safety, not Phoenix and not Mesa.

For a residential roof replacement on this row, a permit is required. The official path is a valuation-based fee path.

The building permit fee comes from valuation table 4.6.1. Building plan review is 65% of the building permit fee under section 4.6.2(a).

The official fee band is $235.95 / $318.45 / $524.70. The official typical project value is $12,000.

Listed assumed valuations are $8,000 low, $12,000 typical, and $22,000 high. Like-for-like reroof still uses this building valuation table (no reroof flat).

Trades extra if pulled separately. This page does not quote any trade fee amounts.

The declared job valuation does drive the fee. A bigger, pricier roof job means a higher declared valuation and a higher permit plus plan review.

Roof square footage is not the lookup on this valuation-based fee path. Walk the typical first.

At a $12,000 valuation the building permit from valuation table 4.6.1 is $193.00. Plan review is 65% of that building permit fee under section 4.6.2(a), which is $125.45.

Then $193.00 plus $125.45 equals $318.45, so the typical fee is $318.45. The official lines at that typical are the building permit (valuation table 4.6.1) at $193.00 (included at the typical assumed valuation) and building plan review 65% at $125.45 (section 4.6.2(a); included).

  • Low $8,000 valuation: the building permit is $143.00 and 65% plan review is $92.95, so $143.00 plus $92.95 equals $235.95.
  • High $22,000 valuation: the building permit is $318.00 and 65% plan review is $206.70, so $318.00 plus $206.70 equals $524.70.

The $524.70 high is not added on top of the $318.45 typical. The $235.95 low is that same valuation-based fee path at the lower declared valuation, not a second charge.

This page records only three valuations: $8,000 and $12,000 and $22,000. This note does not invent a fee beyond the official $235.95, $318.45, and $524.70 totals.

City of Chandler, not Phoenix and not Mesa. Building permit from the March 2, 2026 valuation table plus 65% plan review. Like-for-like reroof still uses this building table (no reroof flat). Trades extra if pulled separately.
