For properties located in Southwest Jacksonville and surrounding county areas, permit applications are handled by the Building Inspection Division.
Permits are typically submitted online via the Jacksonville Building Inspection Division Portal.
Contractors will need to fill out the necessary sections (e.g., Section A, Section B for Roof Plan, and the specific material section) of the Seminole Tribe Uniform Roofing Application Form.
Be prepared to provide the roof system manufacturer name, Notice of Acceptance (NOA) or product approval numbers, and structural details.
Jacksonville Beach & Municipalities

Jacksonville Beach
Uses an electronic permitting system and has a specific Roof E-Permit Application. For detailed steps, you can also review the Jacksonville Beach Roof Permit Application Form PDF.
Tips for a Smooth Application
To avoid application rejection or delays:
The uniform roofing form contains strict instructions requiring you to fill out specific sections depending on your roofing type (e.g., A, B, and C for low slope, or A, B, and D for asphalt shingles). A handy guide like the Brava Roof Tile HVHZ Uniform Permit Application Guide can help with technical formatting.
Ensure all underlayments, coverings, and accessories have valid Florida Product Approvals attached.
Homeowners can pull a permit, but this usually voids insurance warranties and requires you to personally pass all inspections. Most residents hire licensed roofing contractors.
