The person who wants to do it says he would like do get it done. I will strip the old roof as I had planned to do and use the 30 year shingles. I need a specific kind of any other material. It was built as a two bedroom ranch with a basement that was already inexpensively finished when I purchased the home. There is also an entrance breezeway that is the house on one side and a two car garage on the other side. There is also a roof over the small porch on the lake side.

1. Is it too cold now?
2. Need to know more about the "under the shingle material" and the ice dam or whatever. The house is extremely well insulated with double paned Anderson windows and there must be tons of insulation under the awful T1 eleven that is pulling apart at the bottom on the part that sits in the snow. I am paying for materials and some of the work. The rest is from a car that I am trading for work.

I would like to know what to look for as I am going to be there. He said there is a "dead strip" that would not be seen and I have some 30 year shingles that were not used when I did the roof here that he said could be used as nothing happens to shingles that are wrapped etc. He said the sun dries them out and makes the brittle but that material of the others would be fine for the "dead strip". Is this true? I had them in the garage here after having the roof done back near 2000. He seems like a nice fellow and did some fascia board and soffit work here. We used the new PVC material and so far I think it is OK. He wants to do the job now as he will get busy with the union soon? No idea?

I am having the roof stripped and he has been to the attic and looked at the plywood for any leaks etc. He did not want to strip it but I always said that I wanted it stripped. It only has the original layer but it is 30 years old and only regular material shingles on it that are not in good shape so best to get rid of those. They have done a good job for 30 years but are ready to go where old shingles go. How do I get rid of the old material?
