Do I tear off my old shingles?

[davislucy86]

I live in Miami South Florida. I would like to replace my roof. There is two layers of asphalt shingle on the house now, the roof is in really bad shape. I would like to install the new style shingles that look like slate or cedar.

 

Is it possible to install these over my

 

existing shingles?

 

Thanks Lucy

Yes Lucy you would need to remove the old shingles first if only to check the condition of the roof underneath. Over here there called tiles or slates.
