Roofing System Concept

Roof Age

The age of the existing roof system — a key factor in determining whether repair or replacement is the appropriate solution.

What Is Roof Age?

Asphalt shingle roofs typically have a useful life of 20-30 years depending on material grade, installation quality, ventilation, and Texas climate conditions. As a roof approaches end of life, repair becomes less cost-effective. Insurance carriers also consider roof age when determining ACV vs RCV coverage and claim eligibility.
