Roof Certification

This inspection is normally required by Citizens Insurance and other insurance companies on homes 25 years and older. The purpose of the inspection is to verify that the roof has a useful life of at least 3-5 years. There are times where a roof certification may be required on homes that are less than 25 years old as well.

While Citizens or your insurer knows the age of your home or the one you are about to purchase, they do not know if the roof covering has ever been updated. This is important as it will determine if the insurer will renew or write a new policy based on their insurability guidelines. When performing the Roof Certification Inspection the following information is obtained:

• Roof Covering Material
• Age of the Roof Covering
• Date the Roof was last updated
• Visible signs of damage/deterioration
• Signs of leaks

Once this information is obtained along with supporting photos, a Roof Condition Certification Form is completed and can be submitted to your insurance agent.
