Roof tear-offs are important to discover hidden damage that is not visible from an attic inspection or in some cases where there is no attic space; a visual inspection from the outside may produce some history of the structure that needs immediate attention. Also, most communities only allow for two (2) layers of shingles, which may necessitate a tear-off. Removing the old existing layer(s) of shingles will give the new roof a smoother surface for the shingles to lay flatter and potentially last longer.
If A Abel Roofing is a company located in the south suburbs of Chicago who sees when a roof tear-off is necessary, damaged roof boards or plywood decking will be found and replaced as necessary. An ice shield barrier is applied directly to the decking to help reduce the costly damages caused by ice dams.
