Can a Wakefield roof be installed over an existing roof?

In many situations, a Wakefield metal roof can be installed over an existing roof, provided that the building structure and roof deck are in good condition. This method can sometimes eliminate the need to completely remove the old roofing material, which may reduce installation time and certain project costs. Metal roofing systems are relatively lightweight and can often be installed over existing structures when properly prepared.
