Affordable Roofing Solutions: Recover Your Existing Roof with New Materials
Roof recovering refers to the process of installing new roofing materials on top of an existing roof. This process is often also called re-roofing, roof-covering, roof-over, or roof-layering. Roof recovering is like giving your roof a makeover. Instead of tearing off the old roof entirely, we simply add a new layer of roofing material over the existing one. It’s a smart, cost-effective way to extend the life of your roof without the hassle of a complete replacement.
Comparing Roof Repair, Replacement, and Recovering
- Roof Repair – Roof repair involves fixing specific issues or damages on your existing roof, such as leaks, damaged shingles, or flashing, to restore its integrity and extend its lifespan.
- Roof Replacement – Roof replacement entails completely removing the old roofing system and installing a brand-new roof, providing a fresh start and long-lasting protection for your home or business.
- Roof Recovering – Roof recovering adds a new layer of roofing material over your existing roof. Instead of tearing off your old, worn-out roof, we simply add a new layer of roofing material on top of the existing one, restoring the look and performance of your roof.
Why Florida Property Owners Choose Roof Recovering
Cost-Effective: Avoid the higher costs associated with a full roof replacement by opting for roof recovery. Since we don’t have to tear off the old roof, you save on labor and disposal fees.
Quick and Convenient: Roof recovering is generally faster than a complete roof replacement, which means less disruption to your daily routine.
Environmentally Friendly: Reusing the existing roof structure reduces the amount of waste that ends up in landfills, making roof recovery a greener option.
Enhanced Protection: Adding a new layer of roofing material improves your roof’s ability to withstand the elements, protecting your home or business from leaks and other damage.
Improved Curb Appeal: A fresh layer of roofing material can dramatically improve the look of your property, boosting its curb appeal and potentially increasing its value.

How to If a Tell Reroof is Right for You
If you’re considering whether a reroof is the right choice for your home or business, there are several factors to consider. Roof-overs can be a cost-effective alternative to a full replacement, but they may not be suitable for all situations. Here are some key considerations to help you determine if a roof recovery is right for you:
- Inspection by a Professional: It’s essential to have a professional roofer inspect your roof to determine if a roof over is possible. We’ll assess the condition of your roof, decking, and more and provide our expert advice on the best course of action.
- Condition of Existing Roof: Assess the condition of your existing roof. A roof-over is typically only possible if your current roof is structurally sound and in good condition. If there are significant issues, such as uneven decking, rot, or the existing material is falling apart, a full replacement may be necessary.
- Building Codes: Check local building codes and regulations to see if a reroof is allowed in your area. Some cities have restrictions on roof-overs, particularly in coastal cities more prone to hurricane damage.
- Roof Material Compatibility: Consider the type of roofing material you have and whether it is suitable for a roof over. Some materials, such as asphalt shingles, are more conducive to roof overs than others like slate or concrete tiles.
- Cost Savings: One of the main benefits of a reroof is cost savings. Compared to a full roof replacement, a roof recovery is typically more affordable as it requires less labor and materials. This is particularly beneficial for high-rise buildings that require a more extensive replacement process.
- Warranty Limits: Some manufacturers won’t provide you with the highest level of material warranty when installing a new roof over an existing one. This will be worth considering if you are looking for the highest possible warranty coverage.
Ultimately, the decision to opt for a roof over should be based on a thorough assessment of your roof’s condition, local regulations, and your long-term plans for your home. When we meet with you to review your project, we’ll perform a full inspection of your roof and give you all the information needed for you to make the best decision for your property.

Local Florida Building Codes & Potential Limitations for Roof Recovering
When considering roof recovering in Florida, it’s essential to be aware of local building codes and potential limitations that may impact your project. Florida’s unique climate and weather patterns necessitate strict roofing regulations to ensure the safety and durability of roofing systems. Here are some of the limitations and considerations to keep in mind:
Existing Roof Condition: Roof recovering is only viable if the existing roof is in relatively good condition. Significant damage, such as extensive leaks or structural issues, may necessitate a full replacement.
Weight Considerations: Adding an additional layer of roofing material increases the weight on your roof. It’s crucial to ensure that the existing structure can support this additional weight without compromising safety.
Ventilation and Moisture: Proper ventilation is essential to prevent moisture buildup between the old and new roofing layers. Inadequate ventilation can lead to mold growth and other moisture-related problems.
Warranty Implications: Some roofing material manufacturers may have specific requirements for warranty coverage. It’s important to check whether roof recovering will affect the warranty on your roofing materials.
Wind Resistance: Roofs in Florida must be able to withstand high winds that are commonly associated with hurricanes. This means that the materials and installation methods used for roof recovering must meet specific wind resistance standards.
Building Permit Requirements: Most roofing projects, including roof recovering, require a building permit. This ensures that the work complies with local codes and is inspected for safety and quality.
Layer Limitations: Florida building codes typically limit the number of roofing layers allowed. In many cases, you cannot add a new layer if there are already two layers of roofing material in place. This is to prevent excessive weight on the roof structure

Metal Roofs
Metal roof recovery applies to low-slope metal roofs that are transitioned into a single-ply membrane roofing system. Insulation is applied to the roof to create a level surface, followed by a single-ply membrane such as TPO to restore the roof’s protective properties, seal leaks, and enhance its appearance, all without removing the existing metal panels. This approach is particularly effective for extending the life of a metal roof that is still structurally sound.
- Assessment: Inspect the existing metal roof for flashing details or loose panels.
- Create a Level Surface: Install insulation board and decking materials for a secure surface.
- New Roofing Material: Install new low-slope roofing materials over the existing roof.
Flat Roofs (EPDM, TPO, PVC, and Modified Bitumen)
Roof recovery for flat roofs can involve overlaying a new membrane over the existing one, provided it’s in adequate condition, or applying a roof coating to restore the waterproofing layer.
- Inspection: Identify areas with pooling water, leaks, punctures, or membrane damage.
- Surface Preparation: Clean the surface and repair small punctures or tears.
- New Membrane Layer: Install a new membrane over the existing one, ensuring compatibility and proper sealing.
Asphalt Shingle Roofs
Roof recovery for a shingle roof involves adding another layer of shingles on top of the existing roofing materials to extend the life of the roof without the full cost of a complete replacement.
- Inspection: Check the condition of the existing shingles and underlying structure.
- Preparation: Clean and prepare the existing shingle surface and protect against leaks.
- New Layer Application: Install a new layer of shingles over the existing ones, adhering to building codes that typically limit the roof to two layers of shingles.
