Roofing Warranties Demystified: What You Need to Know

A roofing warranty is more than a guarantee—it's a protection plan for your home’s most important asset. Discover why roofing warranties are crucial and how to pick the best one for your roof.

What Is a Roofing Warranty?

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

Not all warranties are created equal. Here's the difference:

  • Warranties for Materials Only: 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.
