Easton Roofing

Navigating roofing responsibilities can be complex when living in an HOA community. Understanding who is responsible for what can save you from potential headaches and unexpected costs.

Understanding Your HOA Regulations

The HOA’s governing documents — the covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) — are your starting point. These documents define the homeowners’ and HOA’s obligations and responsibilities. They often outline who is responsible for maintaining, repairing or replacing roofs. Make sure you read and understand the contents of these documents to avoid surprises during your roof replacement project.

The Homeowner’s Responsibilities

Generally, homeowners are responsible for maintaining their property, including their roofs. If damage occurs beyond normal wear and tear — such as damage from a fallen tree or neglect — then the homeowner is responsible for the roof repair or replacement.

The HOA’s Responsibilities

In some cases, roofs are considered shared or common areas, particularly in condos or townhouses. The HOA would typically be responsible for roof maintenance and replacement in these types of properties. This may also be the arrangement in communities where uniformity of appearance is required. However, it all depends on the specific terms of your HOA’s governing documents.
