West Virginia building codes for roof replacement
West Virginia has no mandatory statewide residential code. What applies depends on the jurisdiction that issues the permit.
The latest edition of the West Virginia State Building Code is based on the 2018 IBC & IRC as of 8/1/2022 but is not mandatory statewide as it is only effective where adopted by the local jurisdiction, and local jurisdictions are not required to adopt it.
Adopted editions across West Virginia
- 1 counties on the 2021 IRC
- 9 counties on the 2018 IRC
- 5 counties on the 2015 IRC
