Roofing pushes building permits to upper floors

A surging in roofing activity brought on by spring hailstorms continues to send construction activity soaring.

According to the City of Plainviews July building report, 161 construction permits were issued during the month for construction totaling $3,325,978.74. By comparison, the city issued 146 permits from the first of January through the end of July 2016 for a total value of $3,414,185.

For the year-to-date through July 2017, construction values stand at $9,012,578.73.

The big difference comes from roofing activity, with 134 for the month for a value of $3,255,861.74, and 401 for the year with a value of $7,039,612.82. The City of Plainview began requiring building permits for roofing Jan. 1. As a result, there is no comparison data for 2016.
