How each fee is calculated

Roof replacement

Fee basis: Flat fee.

Project value on this row: low $8,000, typical $12,000, high $22,000.

Pikes Peak Regional Building Department fee schedule (Table A / A.1 / C / individual residential mechanical), 2025 ICC valuation data effective June 30, 2025 (retrieved Sep 1, 2026). Pikes Peak Regional Building Department (PPRBD) issues Colorado Springs building permits; the city itself does not issue them.

For an asphalt shingle reroof on this path, a permit is required. The official fee band is $135 / $135 / $135.

The low fee, the typical fee, and the high fee are each $135. The typical project value on this row is $12,000.

The job values used for this fee are $8,000 low, $12,000 typical, and $22,000 high. Walk the typical first.

The $12,000 typical asphalt shingle reroof uses the Table A.1 flat line, so the permit fee is $135. That Table A.1 line covers 1 to 2 family homes and townhomes.

The line named Asphalt shingle reroof (Table A.1) is that same $135 and is included as the whole fee, not added on top. Its note says Included.

Low and high match because the $8,000 low job and the $22,000 high job use the same Table A.1 flat line, so the low fee is $135 and the high fee is $135. The $135 high is the same total as the $135 typical and is not a second charge.

Those job values of $8,000 and $12,000 and $22,000 do not change the fee. Roof area is not an input to this listed permit total.

Documented roof sizes of 1,000 / 1,500 / 1,800 sq ft do not change the $135. A roof of 1,000 sq ft, a roof of 1,500 sq ft, and a roof of 1,800 sq ft each stay on this flat asphalt shingle reroof, so those sizes do not change the $135.

Plan exam at 28% applies to Table A building permits, not this A.1 line, so no plan exam is added here. The official line is for asphalt shingle reroofs.

This page does not state a fee for other roofing materials. This page does not state a fee for structural roof work.

Structural roof work would fall under Table A valuation, which this page does not compute. This page does not invent plan-review add-ons.

This page does not invent technology fees. This page does not invent a fee beyond the official $135.

PPRBD issues Colorado Springs building permits. Table A.1 asphalt shingle reroof is a flat $135 and already covers the 1–2 family reroof path. Plan exam 28% is for Table A building permits, not this A.1 line.
