See I never understood the people that wanted you to just shingle over the existing roof why do it that way?

Save on labor, happens when people "flip" houses and in low income areas where the resident owners don't have the $ or the slumlord owners don't give a shit. It's against code everywhere to do a 3rd roof, and in some locales a 2nd. But if you hire three chucks in a truck to do it on the weekend, no code enforcement.

Makes sense I guess, still not a good idea.

I agree, even though it is a source of work for us. Those multi-layer jobs often have a lot of bad wood, and that gets added to contract price at a cost plus basis.
