Roofing in El Paso County — including Colorado Springs — runs through the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department, a regional authority serving the county and its cities. Reroofs are permitted and inspected by PPRBD: the contractor who pulls the permit schedules the inspection after installation, and PPRBD publishes its own reroof guidelines with fastening specifics.

Permit & inspection	Reroofs are permitted through PPRBD, with a roof inspection after installation (tile roofs also get a dry-in inspection). The contractor who obtained the permit must schedule the inspection — homeowners can't schedule it on a contractor's permit.
Fastening specifics	PPRBD's reroof guidelines call for 4 corrosion-resistant nails per shingle, penetrating at least 3/4 inch into the roof sheathing.
Timing	PPRBD notes reroof inspections sometimes back up several weeks after big hail events — build that into your schedule before the last invoice.
Contact	PPRBD, 2880 International Circle, Colorado Springs — (719) 327-2880.
