Reroof Recover

Choosing between a reroof or recover depends on the situation, however, Wayne’s Roofing recommends that if you can uncover the deck and reroof, it is always more beneficial. It allows us to detect and correct underlying damage preventing unforeseen issues down the road.

What is the difference between a Reroof or Recover?

Reroof

A reroof is when the pre-existing roof is removed (torn off) from an existing building and a new roofing system is installed.

Things to consider:

• Comes with more performance reliability

• Underlying damage can be detected and corrected

• May require insulation upgrades

Recover

A recover is when a new roofing system is installed over the pre-existing roof with no tear off.

Things to consider:

• Underlying damage will not be found

• The roof will not be exposed to the elements

• Insulation upgrades may not be required
