Do I Need to Tear Off Existing Shingles for a New Metal Roof?

Are you looking for reliable roofers in Erie, PA or the surrounding areas? We can help. Upon request, Neill and Son Roofing will give their expert opinion if your roof needs to be torn off before laying down the metal roof. The most commonly used and recommended technique is laying purlins on top of the existing roof. Purlins are traditionally used in timber framing to be a support for a roof. When this technique is used on an existing roof, the roofers lay down wooden purlin strips to allow for your metal roof to be laid down more straight and even. This results in a number of benefits:

1. WE STILL REPAIR ANY DAMAGED OR WEAKENED AREAS OF YOUR ROOF, UNLIKE MANY OTHER CONTRACTORS!!!
