re-roofing EPDM

I'm looking to replace my EPDM roof (with new EPDM material). I have often heard one of the steps is to replace the roof decking. Is this necessary if existing material can be removed and decking is in good condition.

Anyone do this??

Thanks,
Doug

    Dougrainer is the best source here. I have done two, the first required new decking. On the next one I was fortunate in that the remaining adhesive was easily scraped off leaving a smooth surface. That isn't something you can count on.

    I am curious, why are you replacing it?
