Put simply, reclaimed tile can be matched on Ingleside heritage roofs, but the underlayment beneath it should always be new. We see it on Ingleside roofs every week.
Work in Ingleside is inspected as well as permitted — the San Francisco Department of Building Inspection signs off the finished assembly, not just the application. In practice, reroofing over existing layers in Ingleside is limited by code, and the layer count is checked at inspection. Permit fees in Ingleside are a small part of the job and a large part of what protects the homeowner at resale.
