By understanding the benefits and drawbacks of each approach, you’ll be able to make an informed decision and ensure that your roof is up to the task of protecting your home for years to come. What Is Roof Replacement: Roof replacement involves completely removing the existing roof down to the decking and installing a brand-new roofing system. This is a more comprehensive and expensive solution than reroofing but is necessary when the roof has reached its end-of-life or has significant damage. What Is Reroofing: Reroofing is the process of laying new shingles over your existing roof. This method is often considered more cost-effective and quicker compared to a full roof replacement. Reroofing is a viable option if your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan but is still in relatively good condition. Keep in mind, if your roof has more serious issues, such as major leaks or multiple layers of shingles already, reroofing might not be the best option. Give T&M Roofing a call today.
