Building Permit Fees in Jacksonville, FL (2026)

City of Jacksonville coj.net/fees implementing Ordinance Code §320.409(10) Roofing (source retrieved Sep 1, 2026). The official typical path is the BID roofing inspection path on the per-1,000-sf line.

The fee is based on square footage. A permit is required on that typical path.

The low fee is $167.50, the typical fee is $167.50, and the high fee is $167.50. The official typical project value is $12,000.

Listed assumed valuations are $8,000 low, $12,000 typical, and $22,000 high. Valuation is not the fee driver on this area schedule, so those project values are unused and do not change the $167.50 / $167.50 / $167.50 listed fees.

The published BID roofing line is $10 per 1,000 sf. With an inspection, that line has a $150 minimum.

The roofing C&D debris fee is $17.50. Documented roof surfaces are 1,000 sf low, 1,500 sf typical, and 1,800 sf high.

At 1,000 / 1,500 / 1,800 sf that is 1-2 squares ($10-$20), so the $150 inspection minimum applies on all three paths. ceil(sf/1000) x $10, minimum $150 with inspection, plus $17.50 C&D equals $167.50 at 1,000 / 1,500 / 1,800 sf.

• Low 1,000 sf: ceil(1000/1000) x $10 = $10, which is below the $150 inspection minimum, so the BID roofing minimum is $150. $150 plus the $17.50 C&D debris fee equals $167.50, which is the low fee of $167.50.

The $8,000 assumed project value is unused and does not change that fee.

• Typical 1,500 sf: ceil(1500/1000) x $10 = $20, which is below the $150 inspection minimum, so the BID roofing minimum is $150. $150 plus the $17.50 C&D debris fee equals $167.50, which is the typical fee of $167.50.

The $12,000 assumed project value is unused and does not change that fee. The $150 BID roofing minimum and the $17.50 C&D debris fee are included in the $167.50 and are not added again.

• High 1,800 sf: ceil(1800/1000) x $10 = $20, which is below the $150 inspection minimum, so the BID roofing minimum is $150. $150 plus the $17.50 C&D debris fee equals $167.50, which is the high fee of $167.50.

The $22,000 assumed project value is unused and does not change that fee. The $167.50 high is the same total as the $167.50 typical and is not added on top of it.

Repairs under 500 sf are $10 and are not this typical job. The F.S. 2.5% surcharge is not itemized on the COJ fee page and is not added.

This note does not invent a fee beyond the official $167.50 total.

City of Jacksonville Mechanical Permit Fees §320.409 (source retrieved Sep 1, 2026). The official typical path is the mechanical device schedule with the $60 mechanical minimum.

The fee follows a tiered schedule. A permit is required on that typical path.

The low fee is $60, the typical fee is $60, and the high fee is $94. The official typical project value is $7,500.

Listed assumed valuations are $5,000 low, $7,500 typical, and $16,000 high. Valuation is not the fee driver on this tiered schedule, so those project values are unused and do not change the $60 / $60 / $94 listed fees.

The published air conditioning line is $11 per ton for 1-10 tons. The furnace line is $22 for the first 200,000 BTU.

• Typical 80 kBTU and the 60 kBTU and 120 kBTU sizes all sit in that first 200,000 BTU step.

The mechanical minimum is $60 and applies when the device lines fall under $60. The air duct systems line is $17 for the first 2,000 CFM and is used on the high path only.

• Low 2-ton: $11 x 2 = $22, which is below the $60 mechanical minimum, so the official fee is the $60 minimum, which is the low fee of $60.

The $5,000 assumed project value is unused and does not change that fee.

• Typical 3-ton plus furnace: air conditioning $11 x 3 = $33, plus furnace first 200,000 BTU $22, equals $55.

That sum is below the $60 mechanical minimum, so the official fee is the $60 minimum, which is the typical fee of $60. The $7,500 assumed project value is unused and does not change that fee.

The $33 air conditioning line, the $22 furnace line, and the $60 mechanical minimum are included as typical and low and are not added again. The $60 minimum replaces the $55 device sum; it is not stacked on top of $55.

• High 5-ton plus furnace plus ducts: air conditioning $11 x 5 = $55, plus furnace first 200,000 BTU $22, plus air duct systems first 2,000 CFM $17, equals $94, which is the high fee of $94.

The $16,000 assumed project value is unused and does not change that fee. The $94 device sum is already above the $60 mechanical minimum, so the $60 minimum does not stack on top of the $94.

The $17 duct line is on the high path only and is not added to the $60 low or the $60 typical. An electrical extra is not dollarized and is not in these totals.

The Florida 2.5% surcharge is not on the COJ table and is not added. This note does not invent a fee beyond the official $60, $60, and $94 totals.

Low one-inspection accessory: $75 (includes plan review) + DS $25 + C&D $25 = $125. Typical/high more than one inspection: BID $112.50 + DS $37.50 + C&D $25 = $175.

Per $1,000: BID $3.00 (min $112.50), resource $0.65, landscape 12% of BID, DS $1.00, C&D $0.90; plan review 67% of BID or $75. $15,000=$239.63. $35,000=$290.63. $75,000=$594.
