I had the roof repaired and a new sewer line installed in my home are there any deductions

[HelenaC · Accepted solution]

The new sewer line, no, that is not a tax deduction. That amount would be added to your home's basis upon sale.

Regarding the roof, it depends:

If the roof is not and does not have an Energy Star certification, that is not tax deductible. That amount would be added to your home's basis upon sale.
