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 guarantees that the materials and labor used on your roof meet high standards, offering protection against unforeseen issues. It ensures that your roof’s performance is backed by the manufacturer or contractor.
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: A material-only warranty ensures your roofing materials are covered, but any installation issues remain your responsibility.
- Comprehensive 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.
