Roofover

Would appreciate Steped Guide for doing a fiberglass shingle roofover of existing asphalt 3 tab shingle.
Also, on curled shingles, would it be better to cement them down or cut the curled edge off.

New shingles over old

Roofing professionals tend not to recommend applying new shingles over old.

You can usually put one layover, but be aware that it usually voids the new shingle warranty.
Good luck!
