Can a Texas insurance company refuse to cover your home just because the roof is old?

The Texas Department of Insurance says no. Insurers can't decline or nonrenew a homeowners policy based on roof age alone. They can still look at the roof's actual condition.

But there's a catch many homeowners miss: an older roof may be covered at actual cash value, which can mean a much smaller check after a storm.

We break it all down here:

Can a Texas insurer drop you over an old roof? What TDI's roof age rule means, how condition is evaluated and why ACV roof coverage still matters.

🐿️ POV: You find a house you like and immediately move in.

Apparently, this little guy discovered our owl house and decided it was perfectly suitable housing. No application. No showing. No closing costs. Just vibes. 😂🏡

Honestly… we respect the hustle.

New build sewer lines can still have defects.

During sewer scope inspections, we often find issues in new builds such as construction debris, poor connections, low spots, and other installation related defects.

These problems are not always visible during a standard home inspection because the sewer line is underground.

Stonebriar Property Inspections offers sewer scope inspections as an additional way to evaluate the condition of the main drain line and document issues that may otherwise go unseen.

A sewer scope allows the interior of the line to be viewed so these conditions can be identified early.

Stonebriar Property Inspections now offers sewer scope inspections based on the growing number of costly sewer defects discovered after closing.

An outdoor fireplace can be a great feature on a patio, but its installation still needs to be inspected carefully.

In this video, Keith Boggs of Stonebriar Property Inspections examines an outdoor fireplace and points out a problem with the location of the fresh-air intake openings.

Fresh-air intakes provide combustion air for fireplaces, and their location is important. During this inspection, Keith found that the fresh-air intakes were positioned too high in relation to the top of the fireplace firebox.

This is a great example of why a professional home inspection involves more than simply looking for visible damage. Inspectors need to understand how components are installed and identify conditions that may affect the safe operation of a home’s systems.

If you’re buying a home with an outdoor fireplace, patio fireplace, or other built-in fireplace feature, make sure it gets a proper inspection.
