Property owners typically question whether it's economical to add one more layer of shingles instead than detaching the old ones. While this may appear like a great way to save money on labor and disposal prices, it can bring about more problems down the roadway. Placing a 2nd layer traps moisture, which can substantially lower the life expectancy of the tiles, eventually costing more over time. Additionally, several insurance plan do not cover multiple layers, leaving the homeowner in jeopardy.

While adding one more layer might show up more affordable upfront, the prospective damage and the reduced roofing system life might make it less of a deal than it appears.
