Roof replacement permits in Louisville
Depends on the job
Reroofing generally doesn't need a building permit, so Louisville Metro doesn't inspect it. A permit is required if structural parts such as the roof deck or rafters are replaced, including damaged ones. A new layer can't go over a roof that already has two or more layers.

Kentucky rules that apply
Contractors can't pay your deductible or handle your claim
On insurance-paid home repairs, including roofs, a Kentucky contractor may not offer to pay or rebate your deductible, give discounts or gifts over $100, damage your property to expand a claim, or act as your public adjuster or 'insurance specialist'.
Kentucky Revised Statutes 367.628
Verified October 2026
5 days to cancel if insurance denies the claim
If you sign a contract for repairs expected to be paid by insurance, you can cancel it until midnight of the fifth business day after your insurer tells you in writing that all or part of the claim isn't covered. Written notice by hand, mail, fax or email is enough.
