What Makes a Good Roofing Warranty Coverage?

Replacing a roof can involve substantial costs. Working with professionals who offer comprehensive warranties can protect your investment. Reputable manufacturers and contractors will usually offer you good coverage because they are confident about the quality of their products and services.

A local roof installation and snow dam removal expert shares the essential characteristics of a good roofing warranty.

Manufacturer’s and Workmanship Warranties

Your contractor should offer both manufacturer’s and workmanship warranties. Manufacturer’s warranties protect you from defective materials. On the other hand, workmanship warranties cover issues resulting from improper installation.

Long Duration Warranty

The validity of your roofing warranty often depends on the kind of roof you have and your preferred material. You can expect lengthy and comprehensive warranty coverage from a GAF roofer. If you invest in high-quality materials and hire an experienced installer, your roof will likely outlast the duration of its warranty.

Transferable Warranty

Are you listing your house in a few years? A new roof can improve your home’s curb appeal and marketability. You can attract even more people to your property if it has a transferable warranty. It will assure buyers that the roof will remain protected after they buy the property.

Non-Prorated

Proration is another factor to consider when assessing roofing warranties. Your manufacturer will lower the value they will pay for repairs if you have a pro-rated warranty. You want to choose roofing products that come with a non-prorated warranty. Its coverage won’t change throughout its validity period.
