Reroofing Standards
2006 International Residential Code
Section R907
R907.1 General. Materials and methods of applications used for re-covering or replacing an existing roof covering shall
comply with the requirements of Chapter 9.
Exception: Reroofing shall not be required to meet the minimum design slope requirement of one-quarter unit vertical
in 12 units horizontal (2-percent slope) in Section R905 for roofs that provide positive roof drainage.
R 907.2 Structural and construction loads. The structural roof components shall be capable of supporting the roof covering
system and the material and equipment loads that will be encountered during installation of the roof covering system.
R907.3 Re-covering versus replacement. New roof coverings shall not be installed without first removing existing roof
coverings where any of the following conditions occur:
1. Where the existing roof or roof covering is water-soaked or has deteriorated to the point that the existing roof or roof
covering is not adequate as a base for additional roofing.
2. Where the existing roof covering is wood shake, slate, clay, cement or asbestos-cement tile.
3. Where the existing roof has two or more applications of any type of roof covering.
Exceptions:
1. Complete and separate roofing systems, such as standing-seam metal roof systems, that are designed to transmit
the roof loads directly to the building’s structural system and that do not rely on existing roofs and roof coverings
for support, shall not require the removal of existing roof coverings.
2. Installation of metal panel, metal shingle, and concrete and clay tile roof coverings over existing wood shake roofs
shall be permitted when the application is in accordance with Section R907.4
3. The application of new protective coating over existing spray polyurethane foam roofing systems shall be permitted
without tear-off of existing roof coverings.
R907.4 Roof Recovering. Where the application of a new roof covering over wood shingle or shake roofs creates a
combustible concealed space, the entire existing surface shall be covered with gypsum board, mineral fiber, glass fiber or other
approved materials securely fastened in place.
R907.5 Reinstallation of materials. Existing slate, clay or cement tile shall be permitted for reinstallation, except that
damaged, cracked or broken slate or tile shall not be reinstalled. Existing vent flashing, metal edgings, drains outlets, collars
and metal counterflashings shall not be reinstalled where rusted, damaged or deteriorated. Aggregate surfacing materials shall
not be reinstalled.
R907.6 Flashings. Flashings shall be reconstructed in accordance with approved manufacture’s installation instructions.
Metal flashing to which bituminous materials are to be adhered shall be primed prior to installation.
