The insurance industry response to increased storm-related roof claims is having a major impact on Florida condominium owners. Insurers are inspecting multi-family building roofs and requiring replacement or major repairs before policies are renewed. We have seen this with roofs that are just 18-20 years old, or even newer in the case of damage to the roof. Insurance premiums can be significantly increased while the association is getting financing, bids, and permits, which can take months.
If You are a Board Member or Property Manager
- You Need to Know!
- Failure to do so can be deemed negligent.
- Facilitate insurance claims following a major storm.
Owners that have an annual maintenance log documenting the pre-storm condition of their roofs have a much easier time in the claim process than those without inspection and maintenance records. Property managers and association boards should have a trained person inspect the roof annually, and especially following a hurricane, hailstorm, or strong thunderstorm.
- Roof damage can be difficult for untrained people to detect.
Check and take care of this before any storm:
- Blocked Drains
- Overhanging and Dead Trees
- Rusty or Loose Air Conditioning Stands
- Loose Gutters
- Missing Gutters and Downspouts
- Improperly Stored Building Materials
How We Work with Condo Associations:
It is important to know the steps involved while working with a trusted roofing company.
- Find a trusted roofer you can work with - you will be dealing with them for many months and through some potentially stressful moments.
- Meet the project manager who will be delivering your project and take time to speak with actual, recent customers of the company.
- Determine if the roof should be repaired, recoated, or replaced.
- Communicate to unit owners the need for action.
- Decide on a roof system that is within your budget - there are many systems available, and even within the same type of system (BUR, TPO, Tile) the pricing can vary by 20% or more.
- Obtain bids on exactly the same system, for comparison.
- Work with your trusted roofer to determine the best price/quality offer.
- Finalize owner approval, financing, permits and GO!
Insurance in Florida - Learn the pitfalls
Florida law requires that:
- HOA property insurance is equal to the replacement cost of the property (a number determined every 36 months by an independent appraisal). COAs can also provide adequate property insurance through a self-insurance fund.
- Property insurance must cover "all portions of the condominium property as originally installed or replacement of like kind and quality, in accordance with the original plans and specifications.
Florida Condo Insurance Requirements
Florida law states that a condo association should “use its best efforts” to maintain a master insurance policy “to protect the association, the association property, the common elements, and the condominium property.”
It is also required that the condo association evaluate its replacement cost every 36 months, and the master insurance policy should cover this replacement cost.

Roof Inspections
A key aspect of maintaining the integrity of your roof is through thorough inspections.
Periodic inspections will identify and pinpoint any potential problems or damage that may exist, before they become more serious. These inspections typically encompass an assessment of the roof's overall condition, an examination of critical areas such as flashings and seams, as well as an analysis of other elements such as drainage systems, ventilation, and insulation. Weaknesses are addressed and remedial actions are documented. This creates an insurance record of the good condition of your roof in the event of future storm-related damage.
Ultimately, a proactive and diligent approach towards inspecting and maintaining your roof is crucial to protecting the overall integrity of the building and its occupants.
