Ridge and soffit ventilation added during a replacement often does more for the roof's service life than upgrading the shingle line. Most housing is under 15 years old, so roofing here is about storm damage or an early-failing builder install rather than age.
What it costs in Winter Garden: uses your regular flat deductible, which is why many Florida homeowners with real damage from a tropical storm or squall line come out much better than under the hurricane deductible.
Many Florida carriers now offer policies that pay actual cash value on older roofs rather than full replacement cost — worth checking before you assume a claim will cover a new roof.

Only if the National Hurricane Center gave it a name and it was in effect for your area at the time of loss. A severe thunderstorm, derecho, or unnamed tropical system is a regular wind claim.
