What to Ask About Warranties Before Hiring Roofer
First, there are four ways to look at a roof warranty. Ask your professional contractor about the details of your warranty. Get your self familiar with the following specifics:
#1 – The manufacturing warranty comes from the manufacturer.
Manufacturer warranties are the most common of warranties. Most shingle materials include
manufacturing warranties.
#2 – The workmanship warranty comes from your contractor.
When hiring a professional roofing company, they will provide you with a
“workmanship warranty.” For instance, the workmanship warranty protects the roof when problems arise from defective installation.
#3 – Never go with a warranty covering only roofing materials.
Exclusions apply with limited warranties and will not always cover:
- Flashing
- Metal Edging
- Adhesives
- Installation Errors
#4 – Ask your roofing professional about an “extended warranty
coverage.”
Normally, extended warranties do not miss the critical
factors that make a warranty worth getting.
