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:
- Material-Only Warranties: 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.
- 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
When your warranty is backed by the manufacturer, you’re not only getting superior material protection, but also a guarantee that installation issues are covered, even if the contractor disappears.
