Roof replacement: Insurance deductions and taxation
I am getting my roof replaced on a rental property. The cost is divided as follows:
- Insurance is covering portion of it
- I am covering portion of it (as my insurance does not cover full replacement cost). I only get the non-depreciated cost of replacement
- I am also paying insurance deductible
Are all or some of my out of pocket spending, tax considered as repair expenses or capital improvement?
