Deductions & credits

I replaced it twice . Once as part of a major  remodel  and once as a result of wear and tear. I have seen one answer to the question on Bankrate which stated all repeated roof replacements were improvements because "These improvements provide continuing value by preserving the structure for future improvements." IRS may say the same thing  Pub 523 (2017) page 8 under Improvements Improvements......"prolong it's useful life."  Your opinion?
