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 Warranties vs. Comprehensive Warranties: What’s the Difference?
There are different types of roofing warranties. Here’s a quick guide to help you understand the key differences:
- Material-Only Warranties: Material-only warranties cover just the materials. If the shingles or tiles fail, they’ll replace them, but you’ll need to pay for the labor to install the new ones.
- Comprehensive Warranties: A labor/material warranty covers both the roofing materials and the installation work, offering protection against defects in either.
The Advantage of Manufacturer-Backed Warranties
Manufacturer-backed warranties provide you with an extra layer of protection—if something goes wrong with the installation, the manufacturer steps in to help.
