There are various conditions about your roof that may limit your product choices or affect the cost of your roofing job. Here is a list of questions and answers relevant to the roofing process.

Some local ordinances require permits be obtained prior to the start of the roofing work in both new and repair jobs, depending on the location of the property.

There are advantages to tearing off the old roof before installing a new one. For example:

• If there are any defects in the roof deck, they will be revealed when the roof is torn off. These defects should be repaired before applying the new roof.
• If condensation problems exist in the attic, they too will be revealed when the roof is torn off. Properly designed attic ventilation can then be installed in order to help eliminate such problems.
• When the old roof is torn off, waterproofing shingle underlayment can be installed before applying the new roof. This will help protect against leaks created by cyclical ice damage and wind-driven rain.
• Tearing off the old roof and starting with a clean deck before reroofing may result in a smoother finished roof system.

Allowing a roof to breathe refers to the ventilation system beneath the roof deck.

An effective ventilation system will help:

Reduce attic heat buildup

• Reduce attic heat build-up;
• Reduce attic moisture and condensation;
• Prevent weather infiltration, i.e. drifting snow and wind-driven rain;
• Prevent ice dam build-up.

Some local building codes and UL standards require that a shingle underlayment (also known as roofing felt) be installed. Protection against ice dams can be obtained by using a waterproofing shingle underlayment at the eaves or lower edges of the roof, in addition to installing adequate ventilation and proper insulation in the attic floor.
