## Roofs older than 25 or 50 years

A soft roof, such as shingle or similar, older than 25 years needs documentation showing at least five years of remaining useful life. A hard roof, such as tile, slate, clay, concrete or metal, older than 50 years needs the same. A roof with less than five years of remaining useful life needs proof of a full-roof replacement, given to the inspector, before the roof is verified in good condition.

## Wind mitigation features

This form does not verify loss mitigation features. The Uniform Mitigation Verification Inspection Form, OIR-B1-1802, is used for them.

## Current version

Citizens updated this form to RCF-1 03 25 so that its roof condition requirements mirror those of the updated [4-Point Inspection Form](/citizens-4-point-inspection-form/).
