Areas These Guides Cover Around Wichita
Hail doesn’t stop at the city limits, and neither does the need for good roofing information. These guides cover Wichita and the surrounding Sedgwick County towns.
Which areas around Wichita do these guides cover?
These guides cover Wichita and nearby towns, including Andover, Derby, Maize, Goddard, Haysville, Park City, Bel Aire and Valley Center. Roofing rules and permit offices vary by town, so check yours before you hire a roofer.
| Area | County | Roofing permits issued by |
|---|---|---|
| Wichita | Sedgwick | MABCD (Wichita–Sedgwick County building department) |
| Unincorporated Sedgwick County | Sedgwick | MABCD |
Which parts of Wichita do the guides cover?
All of Wichita, from east to west and north to south, including neighborhoods like College Hill, Delano, Riverside, Old Town and Crown Heights.
Why does it matter which city you live in?
Your city decides who issues the roofing permit and inspects the finished job. In Wichita and unincorporated Sedgwick County, that’s MABCD. Nearby cities can run their own permit offices. A good local roofer knows which office handles your address and pulls the permit for you.
That’s one more reason to hire local. An out-of-town crew that’s never pulled a permit in Andover or Derby is learning on your roof.
Your roofer should also be registered with the Kansas Attorney General, no matter which town you’re in. The state registration covers every Kansas city.
