I’ve been told that there’s no roof in Texas more than five years old.

That’s mostly true. I’m in Tarrant county, the hail capital of the world. I have a 40-year-old concrete tile roof, which is almost impossible to crack with brute force. Any other types like composition, slate, clay, metal, etc. are new.

Mine made it more than 20. The hail storms a few weeks ago mean that I’ll have a new one by summer. Pretty much everyone in the neighborhood is having to replace.

On the other hand, I haven’t had to water yet, and the lawn hasn’t looked this good in years following what we got last year.

I’m not surprised they jacked up my insurance. Mine’s at least 6 or 7. But you’re basically in the ballpark.
