Roofing guide and inspections policy change

Thank you to all of the contractors, roofers, and homeowners who turned out last night for our "Roofing in Denver" educational session and Q&A.

One of the highlights was a discussion of the role of manufacturer's installation instructions. Manufacturer's instructions ARE included in both the International Building Code (IBC) and International Residential Code (IRC) in code sections  IBC 1503.1  or  IRC R903.1 .
