Roof age across Jamul clusters around the decades when the area filled in, which means whole streets reach the end of their covering within a few years of each other.

A Jamul adjuster works from the scope in front of them, which is why the contractor's report has to be thorough. Realistically, policies covering Jamul properties generally pay for sudden deterioration and not for age, so the report has to separate the two clearly. Wind and storm deterioration on a Jamul roof covering is covered where it is documented; wear is not covered anywhere.
