What to Do When Your Home Insurance Wants to Cancel Because of an Old Roof
Over the past five years, we’ve seen a growing trend: insurance companies requiring homeowners and business owners to replace their roofs in order to maintain coverage. This can be incredibly stressful, especially when your roof seems to be in good condition. If you’re facing this situation, know that you’re not alone—and there are solutions.

Why Insurance Companies Are Concerned About Your Roof
Insurance companies see an aging roof as a potential risk. Older roofs are more likely to suffer from leaks, wind damage, or other issues that could lead to costly claims. To minimize their risk, they may ask you to replace your roof or face cancellation of your policy. While this is a frustrating situation, it’s important to understand that insurance companies are trying to protect themselves from potential losses.
