An attorney I know sent me a copy of an Xactimate estimate from a major insurance carrier. The estimate calls for replacing a couple of slopes on the dwelling and reusing some of those shingles on a detached structure, so the detached structure can have a uniform appearance. This idea was surprising to both of us.
I have never heard of removing old asphalt comp shingles and reusing them. Am I missing something?
Anybody hear of this before?
Is it considered acceptable in the roofing trade?
Do building departments allow this?
I know it is done for clay tiles, concrete tiles, etc., but asphalt comp?
I would love to get some input from the community on this.
