Kaysville Re-Roof Permits, Gutter Drainage, and City Power Solar Rules
Kaysville publishes its own roofing rules, and its city-owned utility sets the terms for rooftop solar. We check each item before work starts.
Re-roof permit
2 inspections
A permit is required for every tear-off, with dry-in and final inspections and no plan review fee. Apply on the city portal with a $25 deposit.
Ice barrier and drip edge
24 in / 36 in
Self-adhering membrane 24 inches inside the wall line, 36 inches up the slope on 8:12 or steeper. Drip edge at all eaves and rakes, over solid plywood or OSB.
Gutters and downspouts
East bench runoff
In 2023, snowmelt overwhelmed storm drains near Orchard Ridge Lane and Mountain Road. We extend downspouts away from foundations and slopes.
Tree canopy
Tree City USA
With a city-owned tree farm and mature street trees, gutters fill with leaves and needles. We check debris and hangers at every inspection.
Solar on City Power
Written consent
The net-metering agreement bars changes to a system without the city’s written consent. Ask Kaysville City Power before panels come off. New arrays need an engineer’s roof check.
Old Town homes
No material rules
The Historic Preservation Commission is advisory only. Many homes use Kaysville Brickyard yellow brick, so chimney and wall flashing gets extra care.

Roof Replacement Cost Factors for Kaysville Homes
Two Kaysville homes on the same street can receive very different estimates. These four factors account for most of the difference:
Square Footage and Roof Pitch
Steeper roofs need more safety equipment and labor, and roofs of 8:12 or steeper need a wider ice barrier at the eaves.
Layers and Decking
Older homes may hide a second layer or gapped board decking that must be replaced with solid sheathing at a set per-sheet price.
Shingle, Metal, or Tile Selection
Architectural shingles, standing seam metal, and tile each carry different material and labor costs.
Gutters and Solar
New seamless gutters and the removal and reset of solar panels add scope to the project.
We measure your roof and review its structure in person, then provide an itemized written estimate after the free inspection.
Kaysville Roofing, Gutter, and Permit Questions
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Kaysville?
Yes, when the old roofing is torn off. Kaysville requires a building permit for every tear-off re-roof, with a dry-in inspection and a final inspection and no plan review fee. Some cities require a permit depending on the scope of work. We’ll let you know if yours does.
What wind speed does a Kaysville roof need to meet?
Kaysville designs homes for 140 mph winds under ASCE 7-22, Exposure B. East canyon winds and summer thunderstorms both reach the city, with gusts of 59 and 67 mph measured in 2024 and 2025. We fasten shingles to the manufacturer’s high-wind pattern, with added attention at eaves, rakes, and ridge caps.
How much snow load does a Kaysville roof carry?
It depends on the address. The city uses the USU snow load calculator, which shows about 33 psf on the west side, 35 psf at City Hall, and 44 psf on the upper east bench. We look up the figure for your home and check the framing and decking against it.
Does hail damage roofs in Kaysville?
Yes. Hail measuring 1.75 inches was reported at the Kaysville post office in August 2018, and hail estimated at 1.5 inches fell west of I-15 on September 18, 2026. Hail that size can crack shingles and bruise the fiberglass mat beneath the granules, so a photo inspection after a storm is worthwhile.
Roofers knocked on my door after the September hail. What should I do?
Ask for the contractor’s Utah license number and check it with the Division of Professional Licensing before you sign anything. Request dated photos of the damage on your own roof. Rooval Roofing provides a free inspection with photos, and you keep them whether or not you hire us.
What happens to solar panels on Kaysville City Power during a re-roof?
The panels are disconnected and removed before tear-off, then reinstalled on the new roof. Kaysville’s net-metering agreement requires the city’s written consent for any modification to the system, so ask Kaysville City Power whether a removal and reset needs approval before the work is scheduled.
Do you provide gutter services in Kaysville?
Yes. We install seamless aluminum gutters, repair sagging or leaking runs, and route downspouts away from foundations and slopes. Kaysville requires drip edge at the eaves, and we set it so roof water lands in the gutter. Gutter work can be done on its own or with a roof replacement.
Is my Kaysville home in Utah’s high-risk wildfire fee area?
Based on the state’s current map, no. Our October 2026 check of the state high-risk wildland-urban interface layer found no Kaysville properties in the fee area created by House Bill 48. The nearest mapped areas are several miles north. Class A shingles remain a sound choice for homes near the foothills.
Are there roofing rules for historic homes in Old Town Kaysville?
No material rules apply. Kaysville’s Historic Preservation Commission is advisory, and it can delay a demolition permit for up to 30 days. Older brick and adobe homes often need careful flashing at chimneys and walls, and some carry board decking that must be replaced with solid sheathing.
My Kaysville home was built in the 1990s. Is it time for a new roof?
Usually, yes. The median Kaysville home was built in 1994, and original shingles from that period are near the end of their service life. Granules in the gutters, curling edges, and brittle tabs indicate the roof is due for replacement. A free inspection confirms the condition of the shingles and the deck.
