Things You Should Know About Your Roofing Warranty

Having a commercial or residential roofing warranty can provide you with the peace of mind that your roof is protected and that any issues or damage will be covered by your warranty. It’s important to understand what types of warranties are available as well as what is not covered so you know how to maximize their coverage. 

Types of Warranties for Roofing Services

When it comes to roofing warranties, there are two main types — manufacturers’ warranties and installation warranties. Manufacturers’ warranties cover defects in materials used in the construction or installation process, while an installation warranty covers workmanship errors related to improper installations or faulty repairs. 

These two different types of warranties often have different terms and conditions, so it’s crucial to read through them carefully before signing off on any contracts with a roof repair or replacement contractor. 

What Is Not Covered by the Warranty

In addition to understanding which services are covered under each type of warranty, it’s also essential to be aware that some things may not be included in either one. Natural wear and tear due to age aren’t  included in a roofing warranty, nor is damage caused by severe weather such as hail storms or high winds. Improper maintenance can also void certain parts of your coverage so make sure you follow all instructions given and maintain your roof correctly and according to the manufacturer’s guidelines.   

How to Maximize Your Warranty Coverage

To maximize the coverage of your roofing warranty, make sure to hire a licensed, experienced roofer for the installation. Ensure that you follow all manufacturer instructions during installation and regularly inspect and maintain your roof in order to identify any potential issues before they become more serious. Doing so can save you money down the line as well as help avoid costly repairs or replacements due to negligence or improper care.
