Storm damage on an older roof gets contested as pre-existing wear unless the documentation clearly separates the two — dated photos before the tarp goes on matter here more than anywhere.
An older roof takes storm damage worse and gets contested harder; documentation is everything.
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.

How it works
Historic homes often have low-slope additions that take water first; that's where to look after a storm. Storm damage on an older roof gets contested as pre-existing wear unless the documentation clearly separates the two — dated photos before the tarp goes on matter here more than anywhere.
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.
If the repair is near your deductible, pay for it — a claim on your record costs you at renewal. If it's a full replacement, file. Get the inspection first so you know which situation you're in.
