Insurance & Roof Age

Older Roofs Get Hard Questions at Renewal

Many Florida insurers look closely at roof age when they write or renew a homeowners policy, and some decline older roofs or add conditions for them. A new roof resets the roof's age, which can make a home easier to insure. Here is what Florida law actually says.

Florida's Roof-Age Rule

s. 627.7011(5), Florida Statutes (2022 law, policies issued or renewed on or after July 1, 2022)

  • Roof under 15 years old: an insurer may not refuse to write or renew your homeowners policy solely because of the roof's age.
  • Roof 15 years or older: before an insurer can require a new roof to write or renew your policy, it must let you have the roof inspected by an authorized inspector, at your expense. If that inspection shows 5 or more years of useful life left, the insurer may not refuse to write or renew solely because of the roof's age.
  • “Solely” matters: insurers can still weigh the roof's condition and their other underwriting rules, and some have added requirements for older roofs and older homes.

Wind Mitigation Credits

s. 627.0629, Florida Statutes

  • Florida law requires insurers to include actuarially reasonable discounts, credits or other rate differentials for features that reduce windstorm loss
  • A wind mitigation inspection on the state form (OIR-B1-1802) records features such as the roof covering, roof deck attachment, roof-to-wall attachment, roof shape and secondary water resistance
  • During a full tear-off the roof deck is exposed, so its attachment and the underlayment are handled in the permitted re-roof. We give you the permit and product details an inspector typically asks for
  • Credits, if any, vary by insurer and by home. Your agent can tell you what an inspection would change on your policy

We are roofers, not insurance agents. We make no promises about premiums, credits, coverage, or whether an insurer will write or renew your policy. Ask your agent how a new roof or a wind mitigation inspection would affect yours.

Metal Roofs

Rather Have Metal? We Install That Too.

Roof Wars installs metal roofs: 5V crimp and standing seam. One thing to know up front: WindProven™ is a GAF shingle warranty. It does not cover metal roofs.

5V Crimp

Exposed-fastener panels with the classic five-rib profile seen on homes across Florida.

Standing Seam

Concealed-fastener panels joined at raised seams, for a clean, modern line.

Metal panels carry their own manufacturer warranties, which vary by manufacturer, panel and paint finish. We put the written terms for the panel you choose in your quote, and every Roof Wars installation carries our own 5-year workmanship warranty.

Beyond Wind

Who Stands Behind the Install

GAF Silver Pledge™, on qualifying residential shingle projects: 10 years of GAF-backed workmanship (misapplication) coverage on GAF products and the flashings at valleys, dormers, chimneys and plumbing vents, plus System Plus coverage with tear-off and disposal included when necessary. GAF offers it only through GAF Certified Plus™ and Master Elite® contractors, and it must be registered.

On top of any manufacturer coverage, every Roof Wars installation carries our own 5-year workmanship warranty, shingle or metal.

Program details per GAF (gaf.com); additional requirements apply. Each GAF warranty is available on qualifying projects only and is subject to GAF's terms: see the Silver Pledge™ Limited Warranty and the GAF Roofing System Limited Warranty for complete coverage and restrictions. WindProven™ applies to GAF shingle roofs only, not to metal, tile or low-slope roofs. It requires GAF shingles with LayerLock® Technology, installed with 4 nails per shingle, plus GAF Starter Strips, Roof Deck Protection, Ridge Cap Shingles, and Leak Barrier or Attic Ventilation; it covers the shingles only, for 15 years. Roof Wars is an independent contractor, not an agent of GAF or any metal panel manufacturer.
