Roof inspections · Martin, St. Lucie & north Palm Beach

Got a letter about your roof's age?

Most roof inspections we do start one of three ways. Find yours below, see what Florida law says about it, then call — we'll look at the roof and tell you plainly what it has left.

Three reasons people call

Which one are you?

Insurer letter

"Your policy may not renew because of your roof's age"

If your roof is under 15 years old, an insurer can't refuse or drop you for its age alone. If it's older, you can have it inspected — and if it has at least 5 years of useful life left, age alone still isn't a reason to refuse.

Fla. Stat. §627.7011

Buying or selling

You need to know the roof's real condition

A roof inspection tells a buyer what they're taking on and tells a seller what a buyer's inspector is going to find — before it becomes a price negotiation.

Lower premiums

You want the insurance credits you're owed

Florida insurers must discount premiums for wind-resistant features: how the roof deck is attached, how the roof is tied to the walls, a secondary water barrier. They're documented on the state's wind-mitigation form, OIR-B1-1802, updated in April 2026.

More Florida rules worth knowing

Repair limits and state grants

The 25% rule

Normally no more than 25% of a roof can be repaired in a year before that whole section must meet current code. Roofs built to the 2007 Florida Building Code or later are the exception: only the repaired part has to.

Fla. Stat. §553.844

My Safe Florida Home

The state program offers a free wind-mitigation inspection and matching grants of up to $10,000 for hardening, including a new roof. Funding is limited and eligibility rules apply, so check the program first.
