Reclaimed tile can be matched on Ingleside heritage roofs, but the underlayment beneath it should always be new. Realistically, coatings suit Ingleside buildings with a in good order deck and a tired surface — they buy years, but they do not fix water already trapped in the insulation.
On most jobs, permit requirements in Ingleside run through the San Francisco Department of Building Inspection. Minor repairs generally do not need one; a tear-off and replacement does. Reroofing over existing layers in Ingleside is limited by code, and the layer count is checked at inspection. In practice, the project in Ingleside is inspected as well as permitted — the San Francisco Department of Building Inspection signs off the finished assembly, not just the application. This holds across San Francisco County.
