What You Need to Know About Roof Warranties

Investing in a new roof means also considering warranty options. Roof warranties typically fall into two primary categories:

  • Material Coverage Warranties: Offered by the manufacturer, these warranties cover material defects such as issues with shingles or underlayment.
  • Labor and Installation Warranties: These warranties are provided by contractors and cover issues arising from the installation process.

Some warranties cover both materials and labor, providing a more comprehensive protection plan for your roof.

Maximizing Your Roof Warranty Through Registration

Many manufacturers require homeowners to register their warranties after installation. Registered warranties offer additional benefits, including:

  • More Coverage: Registration can extend coverage, offering enhanced terms.
  • Proof of Ownership: This process makes claims easier by proving your eligibility.

Our team will guide you through the registration process to ensure you receive all available benefits.

Transferring Your Roof Warranty: What You Need to Know

If you’re selling your home, a transferable roof warranty can be a valuable selling point. Many warranties allow for a one-time transfer, giving the new owners peace of mind. However, there are often conditions, such as:

  • There may be transfer fees or required notifications to complete the process.
  • Many warranties set a time limit for transfer, such as within one year.

To ensure the warranty’s value is preserved, discuss transfer details with your contractor.
