In Florida, your roof age is now a primary risk factor for home insurance carriers. Reaching the 20-year mark often triggers automatic non-renewal. We provide the technical audit required to secure your property in Palm Beach County.
Critical data points for Palm Beach County insurance compliance.
Actuarial data shows that at 20 years, the risk of a total loss doubles. Carriers drop coverage to avoid Palm Beach exposure.
If your roof is 18+ years, carriers issue a "Notice of Non-Renewal." Finding new coverage at this stage is difficult and expensive.
We perform a Technical Roof Audit to provide documentation required to extend your policy or fast-track an insurance-funded replacement.
Granule loss and sealant failure on older shingles are the primary "red flags" used by insurance adjusters to deny renewals.

Critical answers for Palm Beach County homeowners facing the 20-Year Cliff.
While the "cliff" is most severe at 20 years, Florida Statute 627.7011(5) allows insurers to require professional inspections for any roof aged 15 years or older. If an inspection shows less than 5 years of useful life remaining, carriers can legally deny renewal.
It depends on your policy type. Replacement Cost Value (RCV) covers the full cost of a brand-new roof. However, many older roofs are switched to Actual Cash Value (ACV), which only pays the depreciated value, often leaving homeowners with thousands in out-of-pocket costs.
Yes. In the current Florida market, carriers often non-renew policies based purely on roof age, regardless of whether there is visible damage. They view older roofs as a "total loss" risk during major hurricane events.
Absolutely. Installing a new Hurricane-Rated roof typically qualifies you for significant Wind Mitigation credits. These discounts can often reduce your annual premiums by 20% to 40% in Palm Beach County.
