    A:  Thank you for your inquiry. Yes, this is an acceptable application. That is, assuming that the substrate is dry and debris free. We also recommend double width laps to help prevent water penetration on the side laps. Therefore, I would suggest 6’’ side laps if installing vertically.

        Q:I have seen horror stories that once this is used, when you need to replace shingles in future you cannot get it off for the dry inspection and have to replace the decking. Is there any solution for this?

        A:  Read their website. You do not need to remove existing ice and water shield membrane for a re-roof - just put another layer over top.
