Get a written quoteClaims on older roofs turn on the wear-versus-damage distinction, and the best evidence is an inspection report dated before the storm — or a very careful one dated right after. Code-upgrade coverage (ordinance-or-law) matters most on historic homes, where bringing the roof to current code adds real cost the base claim won't cover.
Ordinance-or-law coverage is where the money is on an older home; bringing the roof to current code costs real money the base claim won't cover.
Insurers can no longer refuse to write a policy solely because a roof is under 15 years old, and roofs older than that can qualify with a passing inspection showing at least five years of remaining life.

Code-upgrade coverage (ordinance-or-law) matters most on historic homes, where bringing the roof to current code adds real cost the base claim won't cover.
From aerial measurement of your specific roof, the home's age (built before 1980), and what you tell us. It's a number for your house, not an average for the neighborhood.
The hurricane deductible applies only during a named storm declared by the National Hurricane Center and is a percentage of your dwelling coverage. On a home insured for a mid-six-figure amount, that can be five figures. Every other wind event uses the regular flat deductible.
