Re-Roofing

Re-roofing refers to installing a new layer of roofing material over an existing roof without full removal. It is typically used when the underlying structure is still in good condition. While cost-effective, it is not suitable for all roofs. In Vancouver’s climate, re-roofing must be carefully evaluated to ensure proper drainage and structural integrity.
