This is for my brother in law and sister in law. Their home inspection pointed out some problems with the roofing, which led to some further investigation. Their house has what the roof inspector noted as light weight concrete tiles. It's definitely a concrete tile roof, similar to the Boral Split Shake. I'm trying to get a definitive manufacturer and model, but have not been able to as of right now.
The question is: Does Denver have an impact rating minimum for concrete tile roofs, or other types of roofs in general? The roof inspector said there is a good chance that the concrete tile roof that is on their house is no longer certified for use in Denver. Obviously, it's not a fire rating so it must be some type of impact rating or wind rating. Anyone familiar with what the roofing inspector is referring to? This doesn't come up down here, which means absolutely nothing. They are technically in Littleton, if that makes any difference.
