Exploring the Types of Roof Warranties
It’s essential to understand roof warranty options when installing a new roof. Typically, there are two main types of roof warranties to consider:
- Manufacturer Warranties: These warranties are provided by the manufacturer to cover defects in roofing materials like shingles and underlayment.
- Workmanship Warranties: These warranties cover installation-related issues and are offered by roofing contractors.
There are warranties that combine both types, offering complete protection for your roof and peace of mind.
A-Abel’s Warranty Options
A-Abel Roofing offers solid warranty options to protect your roof. As certified installers of Owens Corning shingles, we provide access to premium warranties, such as:
- Basic Warranty: This warranty covers material defects for a set period.
- Extended Warranties: Extended warranties offer extra protection, including resistance to wind damage and algae.
Labor warranties ensure your roof is installed to the highest standard, complementing our material warranties.
The Importance of Registered Warranties
Many manufacturers require homeowners to register their warranties after installation. Registered warranties offer additional benefits, including:
- Extended Coverage: Registration can extend coverage, offering enhanced terms.
- Verification of Ownership: This process makes claims easier by proving your eligibility.
A-Abel Roofing helps you handle the registration process so you can maximize your warranty’s advantages.
Transferring Warranties to New Homeowners
A transferable roof warranty is a valuable selling point when moving homes. Many warranties offer a one-time transfer option, providing peace of mind for the new owner. However, there are conditions, including:
- Some warranties may require a fee or a formal notification for the transfer.
- Time limits, such as transferring within the first year of homeownership.
Consulting your contractor about the transfer process can ensure it goes smoothly and maintains the warranty’s value.
