Permits are required. Ballantyne pulls residential roof permits through Mecklenburg County Code Enforcement (Land Use and Environmental Services Agency / LUESA), 2145 Suttle Ave, Charlotte, NC 28208, phone 980-314-2633, portal code.mecknc.gov. Processing time is not publicly posted for residential roof permits, so we confirm current turnaround at time of application. The permit fee is built into your quote.
Roof assemblies follow the 2018 North Carolina Residential Code (based on the 2015 IRC), Chapter 9 / Section R905. (The 2024 NC Residential Code is delayed to at least March 1, 2027, so the 2018 code is current.)
Design wind: Mecklenburg County’s ultimate design wind speed is roughly 115 mph, and shingles must be rated to that wind zone (tested to ASTM D7158 / D3161). Ground snow load is low, roughly 10 to 15 psf, a minor factor here.
Water management: self-adhering membrane goes at the valleys and penetrations. An ice-dam ice barrier is not typically required in the Charlotte Piedmont.
