Roofing in Saskatchewan
What Saskatchewan roofing contractors work under
The province sets one code for everywhere; municipalities run permits through their own bylaws; and anyone selling roofing at the door needs a direct seller’s licence.
One code, municipal bylaws
The National Building Code 2020 applies throughout Saskatchewan through The Building Code Regulations, in effect since January 1, 2024. Each local authority adopts a building bylaw and must appoint a licensed building official, so permit rules, including for re-roofing, come from the municipality.

Direct sellers need a licence
All door-to-door sellers must be licensed in Saskatchewan. Direct-sale contracts must be in writing unless the sale is under $100, the buyer has 10 days to cancel, and a seller of home renovation products or services cannot require more than 15% of the price during that period.

Falls and WCB Saskatchewan
Workers must use a fall protection system where they could fall 3 m or more, or less where a fall could injure them. Employers in covered industries who hire workers must register with WCB Saskatchewan within 30 days.
