I have just bought a home around Lake Tahoe with a flat roof. I would like to remove that and replace with a normal peaked roof to cover an area of @1500 sq.ft. Is the removal difficult and expensive. And is building a normal roof on an existing structure difficult and expensive?

Gee, Bill, I guess nobody likes you. I've been accused of being a wise guy (I plead guilty), so since no one else will answer your question, I will:
