Understanding Roof Depreciation

A roof is a significant investment that safeguards your home, but like all assets, it depreciates over time due to aging, wear, and exposure to weather elements. Accurately understanding your roof’s current value and depreciation is crucial, especially when you’re considering roof replacement, new roof installation, insurance claims, selling your home, or budgeting future repairs.
