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
Think of a roofing warranty as your safety net—an assurance that the work done is covered in case something goes wrong, protecting your home investment for years to come.
Material-Only vs. Labor/Material Warranties
Not all warranties are created equal. Here's the difference:
- 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.
- Full Coverage Warranties: These comprehensive warranties cover both materials and workmanship, ensuring you don’t pay extra for errors during installation.
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.
