The Advantages And Disadvantages of Including a Layer of Shingles

Homeowners usually question whether it's affordable to add an additional layer of shingles as opposed to tearing off the old ones. While this could appear like a great way to conserve cash on labor and disposal prices, it can bring about more issues in the future. Placing a 2nd layer catches wetness, which can substantially decrease the lifespan of the tiles, inevitably setting you back extra over time. In addition, many insurance policies do not cover several layers, leaving the home owner at threat. Weathercraft recommends thinking about the lasting advantages of a proper tear-off to ensure your roofing system is structurally audio. While adding another layer could show up less costly upfront, the prospective damages and the minimized roof life might make it much less of a bargain than it seems.
