The New “What did you do with your Z today” (with off topic replies)

vtec to vvel

Are you looking at repairing the area of the leak or an entire re-roofing? How old is the roof?

If the leak is from a tornado, I don't see why the insurance company wouldn't cover repairs and may still be worth a shot on filing a claim.

They said it’s toast. Needs a new one. I believe it’s 20 years old but have no way of knowing.

I would get a 2nd opinion. Depending on the roofing material, shingles can last up to 30 years.

In terms of the age, not sure about GA, but FL requires a permit replace the entire roof, so it may be worthwhile to look up records. (If the work was done without a permit and was required, this can be another set of issues when it comes times to sell.) At the very least, a roofing expert should be able to give you a general idea on age.

If you have asphalt type shingles, the two biggest tells if they are done is if the ends are curling up on them and/or most of the granules are gone. The later is mostly from rain erosion and the former is caused by heat (in the attic that doesn’t have sufficient proper venting).

In Florida, most insurance companies require a new asphalt shingle style roof every 15 years to maintain coverage, 20 years iirc for a concrete tile roof.

It’s the heat here that kills the asphalt shingle roofs.
