Reroofing over existing layers in Hayes Valley is limited by code, and the layer count is checked at inspection.
Realistically, core samples settle the argument on a Hayes Valley low-slope roof when damp is suspected but not visible. As a rule, a correct Hayes Valley inspection starts at the flashings, not the field. Chimneys, vents, skylights and the swamp cooler curb fail long in advance of the covering does. We see it on Hayes Valley roofs every week. Put simply, infrared scanning on a Hayes Valley commercial roof locates wet insulation that no visual inspection would find.
