Roofing Calculater: http://www.costhelper.com/cost/home-garden/roof.html Roof: http://www.thisoldhouse.com/toh/article/0,,198504,00.html LA law: In Los Angeles, since 1989, it has not been permissible to install any type of roofing material (including one that is Class-A fire-rated) over a wood roof on spaced-sheathing. Spaced sheathing is more seismically vulnerable and also can allow a fire to draft more rapidly, and the fasteners of the latest roof will have a tendency to split the old and often dry wood shakes/shingles, which means that the roofing material will also be vulnerable to wind-damage.
