/ About

Re-Roofing Overview

In some cases, new roofing can be installed over existing materials instead of complete tear-off.

Re-roofing (or overlay) can be a cost-effective option when your existing roof structure is still sound. New roofing material is installed directly over existing shingles.

Note: Full replacement is often better for long-term protection. We'll recommend the best option for your specific situation.

When Full Replacement Is Better

Full replacement (tear-off) is often the better choice for long-term value and protection.

Full replacement is recommended when:

  • Multiple layers of existing roofing
  • Underlying roof deck is damaged or weak
  • Structural issues need to be addressed
  • You want complete inspection of roof deck
  • You want extended roof lifespan

We'll assess your roof and recommend the best option.
