I have a feeling lots of roofs are replaced when it is not required. A bloke comes round and tells them it needs to be done, or they do it as "we might as well" whilst doing some other work.
My roof and neighbours is fine (about 80 years old) with rosemarys, so no reason others in the street would not be, but quite a few replaced with profiled concrete jobs. Many of these have loft conversions !

I once overheard a roofer that had been asked to replace 4 slates - on
a roof with no other slates already replaced - saying ooh you need us
to reroof the whole thing. Its all about money, and screw the
customer.
