Partial claims on a Temple City roof covering are common and should be priced as repairs rather than inflated into replacements. Realistically, policies covering Temple City properties generally pay for sudden damage and not for age, so the report has to separate the two clearly. Worth knowing before you sign anything. Matching provisions in a policy matter on Temple City tile roofs where the original profile is discontinued. We see it on Temple City roofs every week.
