In general, property insurers may make decisions on the nature of the materials to be used in making repairs, including roof repairs. The insurance policy will dictate the metes and bounds that generall have to be followed.

When it comes to roofs, an insurance policy may require that a replacement be made such that the new roof has to be brought up to current building code, and that may dictate the type of shingles to be used and how much of the roof must be replaced.
