What does a roofing estimate include?

Does re-roofing require a permit in Philadelphia?
Philadelphia's Department of Licenses and Inspections publishes a specific EZ permit standard for qualifying re-roofing projects, while other roofing work may require a different permit process depending on scope. Contractors should verify the requirements for the specific project.
