Am I required to use insurance money to replace roof?

Insurance companies grant money to correct issues from claims. If a person receives money to replace a roof from an insurance company, the money should be used for the repair. If a person decides to not use the money to replace the roof, there could be issues selling the home. The value of the home could decrease. Another issue a person may encounter is the risk of other damages resulting from the roof not being repaired. The insurance company may not cover damages to the home as a result of the roof not being replaced.


If insurance company sends a check for roof replacement and one get it 'fixed' does he has to send the money back to insurance company?

Most policies will pay for roof damage on an "Actual cash value" basis until the roof is replaced. Then, IF you have replacement cost coverage they will make up the difference of the amount paid under actual cash value and actual replacement cost, LESS the amount of your deductible. If you elect not to repair or replace the roof, your insurance company could exclude your roof from further damage or additional payments until you show the monies paid to you were used to repair or replace as indicated by their estimate and claim payment. Otherwise, the money is yours unless the home is mortgaged. If it is mortgaged, the check should have been made to you and the mortgagee, and if the mortgagee endorses it it is yours.

You have insurance on your home but no replacement insurance What does this mean?

HOAIt means our policy is based on actual value rather than replacement cost. It means that the insurance company is not guaranteeing you the replacement of your home if it burns down. For example, your insurance policy limit is $200,000, but the cost of replacing your home is $210,000, if you had a replacement policy, the insurance would pay for the replacement of your home despite the fact that your insurance limit is only $200,000. However, the insured value at the time of the loss is usually required to be at least 80% of the replacement cost before your policy is covered on a replacement cost basis.
