Replacing a roof in Savannah
The City of Savannah lists a full roof replacement, including underlayment, as a project that needs a building permit. In the Historic Districts, exterior work also needs Historic Review Board approval.
Georgia has no roofing-specific state license. Re-roofing existing structures is listed as a limited-service specialty that can contract directly with an owner; work beyond that scope may need a residential or general contractor license.
Savannah's median home was built in 1971 (ACS 2024). Ask how decking repairs found during tear-off will be priced.
