Realistically, matching provisions in a policy matter on Crocker-Amazon tile roofs where the original profile is discontinued. Code upgrade cover decides whether a Crocker-Amazon claim pays for bringing the assembly current or only for like-for-like. This holds across San Francisco County. Actual cash value and replacement cost behave very differently on an older Crocker-Amazon roof, and the policy wording decides which applies. In practice, deductibles on Crocker-Amazon policies vary enough that the claim decision changes case by case. Put simply, photographs taken before any tarping on a Crocker-Amazon property are the most valuable evidence in the whole claim.
A Crocker-Amazon roofer who will not put the assembly in writing is not quoting the same project as the one who will. It is the same story on most Crocker-Amazon streets. Put simply, ask any Crocker-Amazon roofer what happens if the deck is worse than expected, and get the answer before the covering comes off. Worth knowing before you sign anything. Two warranties apply on Crocker-Amazon work: the manufacturer's on the material and the installer's on the workmanship. Ask for both.
