Re: Take the old off or leave it on ,that's my question

As always,,,good information on here about what in the long run would be best.. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I will have the old taken off and new put on,, I come from old school and never did believe in using staples to fasten the asphalt shingles down , so I will hire a roofer who uses tacks.. other than that ,,you all have convinced me that it is best tear it off and then see if any of the roof needs replaced ,, thanks guys

There is one more question I have always wondered about,, when you put a new roof on with the same type and size roofing ,, wouldn't the new roof nailing hit in the same area as the old roof ,,therefore many nails in the old nail holes ? just had to ask,
