Roofing Warranty Basics: What You Should Know

Roof warranties are essential for protecting against unexpected costs and issues. Many types of warranties and coverage options are available, making it difficult to choose the best one. Continue reading as Advanced Roofing Inc. breaks down the basics of roofing warranties to help you make an informed decision.

Manufacturer Warranties

This type of warranty covers the materials used in a roofing system, providing coverage for a specific period. It is essential to be aware of any applicable limitations and exclusions. Additionally, some warranties are transferable to new property owners.

Workmanship Warranties

These warranties are provided by the contractor who installs the roof. The coverage period of workmanship warranties ranges from a few years to a lifetime. Professional local roof repair contractors must honor the warranty.

Residential Roofing Systems

Residential roofing systems include asphalt shingles, metal roofing, and tile roofing. Each system has different warranty considerations, with asphalt shingle warranties based on the manufacturer’s quality. In contrast, metal and tile roofing systems may offer more extended coverage due to their durability.

Commercial Flat Roof Repair

Commercial flat roof repair requires different roofing systems than residential properties, with options such as built-up roofing, modified bitumen and single-ply membranes. Warranty considerations vary, with built-up roofing typically covering materials and workmanship. Modified bitumen and single-ply membrane warranties can offer coverage for different periods.

Tips for Choosing a Roofing Contractor

Research local contractors and compare their offerings to find the best roofing contractor and warranty. Check references and reviews to gauge customer satisfaction and ensure contractors stand by their work. Ask for clarification and compare warranties from different contractors to make an informed decision.
