OneClick Code Delivers Jurisdiction-Specific Data on Repair vs. Replace for Residential Roofing

Written by OneClick Code | 4/29/26 8:39 PM

New feature identifies permit requirements, repair thresholds, and shingle mandates for residential addresses nationwide.

DENVER, CO OneClick Data, Inc. (OneClick Code), the industry leader in automated building code data, today announced the nationwide beta release of jurisdiction-level permit and material requirement data for residential roofing. The new feature gives carriers, contractors, and partners the code data they need to scope jobs accurately from the start, delivering address-level data that previously required manual research into local code books and municipal ordinances.

An estimated 2.1 million residential roofing claims per year in the U.S. are influenced by these data points, which drive scoping, supplements, and settlement outcomes.

What it Delivers

For residential roofing addresses nationwide:

  • Roof Permit Required: Clear Yes/No indicators for re-roofing permits.
  • Roof Repairs Allowed: Whether repairs are permissible and the explicit threshold (e.g., up to 25% of roof area).
  • 3-Tab Shingle Allowance: Whether 3-tab shingles are permitted in the jurisdiction.
  • Class 4 Shingle Requirement: Whether impact-resistant shingles are mandated.
  • Code Narrative: Plain-language explanation of applicable code provisions.

Why It Matters

Repair thresholds and material minimums are among the most common drivers of supplements, scope rewrites, and cycle time delays. When discovered late, they create rework for adjusters, delays for contractors, and friction across managed repair programs. Making this data available early enables stakeholders to:

  • Scope claims more accurately, reducing rewrites and reinspections.
  • Align carriers, contractors, and homeowners around documented jurisdictional standards.
  • Strengthen file defensibility with embedded code narratives for QA, audit, and disputes.
  • Standardize decision logic across surge and remote teams during CAT events.

Also Available: Permit History

OneClick Code's Permit History feature provides address-level visibility into documented building activity, including recent roofing permits and prior structural, HVAC, and plumbing work. Together, these capabilities give professionals the context to scope jobs with confidence.

Availability

The feature is available now in beta for all residential properties nationwide within the OneClick Building Code Detail Report.

OneClick Code is collecting feedback from carriers, contractors, and partners to guide enhancements, including expansion into additional building components such as windows. Contact sales@oneclickcode.com for more info.
