If you would be so kind as to tell your agent she needs to pull her head out of her----- Well you know what. Workmanship and tensil strength are bigger issues than guage. About ten years ago my father passed away, and mom was set on good quality of a casket. The undertaker stressed the heavy guage metal. OK here we go--I asked the differance between the 26 and 28 guage as he understood it. His reply was about twice as strong. I informed him that in a vault made of concrete it was perhaps not a issue. So I had to break it down in undertaker or in this case insurance know it all terms. If you stack 28 pc of steel (28 guage)in a pile or 26 pc of steel in a pile (26 guage)you get a inch high pile. Another words about the thickness of a thin coat of paint differance. I would also reasure her that a roof that has lasted since 1980 must indeed be to thin and a uninsurable steel. I would be questioning her on how many shingled roofs she has insured, and the life projections of our new shingles we get these days. When they say a 50 year shingle I tell the salesman to bite me. They are a joke. You may also remind her she could get her GED for $25.00 over the internet.
