Wood stove permits in Roseville.
Get a mechanical permit from the Roseville Building Department.
Inside Roseville, the Building Department at City Hall, 29777 Gratiot Avenue (586-445-5450), issues mechanical permits. Its mechanical application, dated 7/2023, lists ‘Prefab Wood Fireplace w/chimney’ at $30, chimneys priced by flue size ($15 for 8 inches or less), and ‘Stacks, Liners or B-vents’ at $20, plus a $30 residential application fee and a $90 minimum permit fee. It has no line naming a wood stove or insert, so ask the department which items your stove, liner and chimney fall under. Inspections can be booked online through BS&A or by phone, and most cannot be scheduled for the next business day.
Roseville mechanical permit application (7/2023, PDF)Outdoor fires need a hose within five feet.
Roseville’s open burning handout from the Fire Department prohibits burning weeds, brush and garbage, and sets conditions for fires that are allowed: an adult at least 18 years old must attend at all times, a garden hose or other water source must be within five feet, and a fire pit, chiminea or outdoor fireplace may be no more than three feet across. Officers can order a fire put out after a complaint. These rules are for outdoor fires; an indoor stove goes through the mechanical permit.
Roseville Fire Department open burning ordinance handout (PDF)Installers must register with the city each year.
Roseville’s Building Department says contractor registration is good for one year from the date of registration. Contractors email the registration form with a copy of their contractor’s license and driver’s license. The form quotes Michigan’s rule that anyone required to hold a residential builder or mechanical contractor license may not work on a residential building without one, with civil fines of $100 to $500. Ask your installer whether its Roseville registration is current.
Roseville contractor registration form (updated 8/2023, PDF)Rentals need a city inspection and certificate.
Roseville’s Non-Owner Occupied Housing Ordinance requires landlords to register rental homes and pass an inspection before the city issues a Certificate of Compliance. The listed fee for a single-family home or duplex is $150, covering the initial inspection and first reinspection. With about a third of households renting, a landlord adding a stove should expect the unit to be looked at during that inspection and should keep the permit records.
