Roofing warranties are more than just paperwork—they're your safety net for one of the biggest investments in your home. Let's dive into why they're essential and how to choose the right one.
Understanding Roofing Warranties
A roofing warranty is your assurance that the work done on your roof is backed by a commitment to quality. It protects you against potential issues, giving you peace of mind that your investment is secure.
Material-Only vs. Labor/Material Warranties
Warranties vary in scope and coverage. Here’s a breakdown of what each type offers:
- Warranties for Materials Only: These cover the roofing materials but not installation errors. If your shingles fail, the replacement materials are provided, but you're responsible for labor costs.
- Full Coverage Warranties: A labor/material warranty covers both the roofing materials and the installation work, offering protection against defects in either.
Why a Manufacturer-Backed Warranty Matters
Manufacturer-backed warranties are a game changer. They combine robust material protection with vetted contractors for installation. Even if your contractor goes out of business, the manufacturer steps in to honor the warranty. This ensures you're never left stranded with a roofing issue.
