Florida insurance premiums are not skyrocketing because roofs are simply getting older. They are rising because of widespread abuse in the roofing claims system.

Florida accounts for nearly 80 percent of all roofing-related lawsuits in the United States. For years, inflated and unnecessary claims were pushed by aggressive marketers, often out of state, driving billions in losses for insurers. Some roofers aren't innocent either.

As a result, carriers raised premiums statewide or left Florida entirely. The higher rates you see today are a response to claim volume and litigation, not storm forecasts or roof age.

Roof rejuvenation offers a middle ground.

Preserve the roof. Prove its condition. Avoid unnecessary replacement and insurance claims.

Possibly — but only if your roof qualifies.

Insurance companies do not approve or deny policies based on any service alone. They base decisions on documented roof condition from a licensed inspection.

That is why we inspect first. If rejuvenation makes sense and can help your roof meet inspection requirements, we proceed.

If a qualified inspector determines your roof will not qualify even after treatment, we will tell you upfront and recommend honest alternatives, including repairs or replacement. No wasted money. No false promises.

For homeowners who cannot find private insurance, Florida’s state-backed insurer, Citizens Property Insurance, is available as a last resort and also requires roofs to show at least five years of remaining life.

Florida law protects homeowners from automatic denial based on age alone.

If your shingle roof is over 15 years old, your insurance company cannot deny coverage solely because of age. You have the legal right to a professional inspection.

If that inspection shows at least five years of remaining useful life, the insurer may be required to honor or renew your policy.

We work with qualified inspectors to help certify roof condition. When appropriate, rejuvenation can help restore shingle performance so a roof meets inspection standards.

Roof rejuvenation is not a coating or sealant. 

Bright Green Roof’s Preservation Oil restores aging shingles at the material level by replenishing lost oils and restoring flexibility and weather resistance.

The results are real and measurable.

Backed by ASTM testing for pliability, granule adhesion, fire resistance, and weatherability.

When a roof qualifies, rejuvenation can extend its life 5 to 10 years and can be reapplied over time depending on condition. Each treatment comes with a 5 year warranty.

We have helped homeowners satisfy  insurance "non-renewal" notices by restoring roof condition and providing documentation through certified inspections. While no insurance outcome is guaranteed, properly maintained roofs consistently perform better during renewals.

We start with a free inspection.

If your roof does not qualify, we will tell you.

If it does, rejuvenation is one of the smartest ways to protect your roof, your insurance options, and your wallet.

We Only Rejuvenate When It Makes Sense

We don’t treat every roof. If shingles are less than 5 years old, or if they are too far gone, curled, or damaged, rejuvenation won’t help, and we’ll tell you that upfront.

But for thousands of aging roofs across Florida, rejuvenation:

• Saves thousands of dollars
• Delays premature replacement
• Supports insurance inspections
• Extends useful life with confidence

Think about your car.

You don’t skip maintenance and wait for an accident so insurance can buy you a new one. You service it to make it last as long as possible. That is just common sense.

Your roof works the same way.

For years, the roofing industry has pushed “get a new roof for just your deductible.” That thinking is why claim volumes exploded and why insurance rates are so high. It is not because carriers miscalculated hurricane impact forecasts.

If your shingles still have life left, replacing the entire roof is often unnecessary. Maintenance and restoration cost far less than replacement and help avoid filing avoidable insurance claims.

Replacing a roof is expensive, disruptive, and wasteful when the roof is still structurally sound. Smart homeowners maintain what they already own.

Roof Reuse > Roof Replacement

Every year, millions of perfectly restorable shingles are sent to landfills. Here's why rejuvenation is the better path:

• Shingles take 400+ years to break down
• Manufacturing replacements creates carbon emissions
• Most torn-off shingles still have multiple layers in good shape

When you rejuvenate:

♻️ You reduce landfill waste

🌍 You avoid premature material use

🌳 You plant a tree — one per treatment, through our sustainability initiative

No. But we understand the skepticism. 

Rejuvenation isn’t a scam, and it’s not a replacement. It’s smart, science-backed maintenance that extends roof life when applied responsibly.

At Bright Green Roof, we:

• Inspect every roof before treatment and make sure its a good fit. Some roofs are just fine, others need the treatment, and are not too far gone.
• Use our USDA Certified 100% Biobased product backed by ASTM-compliant lab testing
• Provide transparent, 5 year written warranties
• Rejuvenation doesn't make roofs last forever, just proven results on qualified roofs to extend its life and save thousands.
