Restoring a 1927 tile roof, Chicagoland.
Two questions,
I will be doing a total tear off and restoration of the original roof on the house and garage. Ludowici tile, green glazed, mostly original 1927.
I just refinanced to afford the work. Hand work of removal and replacement of the same tiles.
I have gotten prices in the past years, which range from $35K to $85K. I will ask the contractors to revise their quotes, due to the quotes I have being older.
1 Does anyone have any suggestions for good tile roof contractors?
2 I need suggestions for the new underlayment. I don’t want to re visit the roof for at least 20 years. I had a closed cell foam sprayed to the underside of the roof deck. So I assume the new underlayment needs to vapor permeable. Are there tested products that I can look at?
