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.

Understanding Roofing Warranties

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

There are different types of roofing warranties. Here’s a quick guide to help you understand the key differences:

  • Material-Only Warranties: Material-only warranties cover just the materials. If the shingles or tiles fail, they’ll replace them, but you’ll need to pay for the labor to install the new ones.
  • Comprehensive Warranties: Labor and material warranties provide complete coverage, ensuring that both the materials and the installation are protected.

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.
