Got a non-renewal notice over roof age? Read this first.

Many homeowners in Jacksonville are receiving letters from their insurance company threatening to drop coverage due to the age of their roof—even if it has never leaked and you've never filed a claim.

Florida Law (§ 627.7011(5))

Your insurer can't refuse to renew your homeowners policy solely because your roof is under 15 years old.

If your roof is 15+ years old, Florida law requires your insurer to let you get a roof inspection — at your own expense — before it can force a full replacement as a condition of renewal. If an authorized inspector finds 5 or more years of useful life remaining, your insurer can't refuse to renew solely because of roof age (if your insurer approves).

"Your insurance questions belong with your agent. Your roof belongs with me. I will assess its physical condition and tell you exactly how many years it has left." — Rick Newman

Residential roof assessment

Repair or replace?

We don't sell replacements to homes that just need a repair. We provide honest, plain-spoken assessments of your roof's physical condition.

Residential roof replacement

Full Replacement

When a roof is beyond its useful life. We specialize in asphalt shingle, flat, and metal residential roofs. Done right, by an owner-operator, using the $400–450/square Jacksonville benchmark so there are no surprises.

Meet Rick Newman

I've spent 29 years personally working on residential roofs. I built Dry Home Roofing to give Jacksonville homeowners an option that focuses on craft over flash.

There are no absentee owners here, and I don't employ high-pressure salespeople. The man who inspects your roof is the man who does the work. If your roof has years left, I will tell you. If it needs to be replaced, I will show you the exact price benchmark for this area so you know you're getting a fair, honest assessment.

Honesty isn't a slogan. We prove it by providing a Release of Lien unasked, in writing, before payment.
