Inspection & Home Condition
Roof Age
Roof age is among the most material condition factors in BC residential transactions. Typical service life: asphalt shingle 15–25 years; cedar shake 20–30; metal 40–60; concrete tile 50+. Insurers may decline coverage or apply surcharges for roofs older than approximately 20 years. Replacement costs commonly range from $10,000 to $40,000+ depending on size and material. Roof age, prior repair receipts, and a home inspector's remaining-life estimate are routinely documented during the inspection contingency period.
