This is a roofing company scam. Roofs last 25 to 30 years with no issues. Many are warranted for that long. Yes you may have damage from hail or hurricane that can change that. If there is no damage it should last 25 years with no issues. The reason insurance companies are leery of insuring is they know these roofers are out here trying to scam seniors. Why else are they knocking on doors offer free inspections and a replacement at little cost to the home owner. They are ripping off the insurance company and putting an inferior product on your home.

Call any shingle manufacturer. They will guarantee their product for 25 plus years if installed correctly. Some will do 40 years with special shingles. If my shingles fail after 15 years. I am going after the manufacturer. This is the biggest roofing insurance scam going.
