Roofing warranties play a vital role in protecting your home’s most significant investment. Learn why they matter and how to choose the best coverage for your needs.

What Are Roofing Warranties?

A roofing warranty is your assurance that the work done on your roof is backed by a commitment to quality. It protects you against potential issues, giving you peace of mind that your investment is secure.

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.
  • 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

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.
