What Affects Rates in Rock Hill
- April 2024 hail ranged from 2 inches to baseball size across Rock Hill, with wind gusts up to 90 mph driving hail into vertical roof surfaces and siding.
- September 2024 tropical storm winds downed thousands of trees across York County, with gusts to 70 mph causing widespread shingle loss and structural damage to older roofs.
- York County's median home was built in 1998, meaning many roofs approach the 20–25 year replacement threshold as storm frequency accelerates.
- Two tornado touchdowns since 2021 — one in December 2024 along Highway 161 and one in May 2021 near Highway 55 — underscore wind uplift concerns for aging roofs.
