Now that we are entering into a time of hot, sunny days, you may not be worried about whether your roof can be worked on when it is raining. If you live in Marin, Sonoma, Napa, or anywhere in California, you may want to think again. The devasting fires have started again and the supply chain delays for construction materials to rebuild homes are keeping contractors of all stripes very busy. That includes roofing contractors who employ experienced roofers to tackle your roofing installation.
The Bay Area, including Marin County, received more than its share of high wind advisories of late. That has homeowners wondering if their roofs are strong enough to withstand all that wind.
That depends. Roof repairs are part of the regular and timely work responsible homeowners are expected to complete to protect their overall investments. That is considered regular maintenance and not a deduction. An entire new roof for your residence is considered a home improvement but is also not a tax deductible expense.
