Warranty
Roofing Warranty Basics
Roof replacement is an expensive investment into your property. Most owners get distracted by finding the cheapest roofer near them or choosing the right color. However, quality workmanship and warranty should be at the forefront.
Roofing warranties are written in legal terms, which can be hard to comprehend. This detailed writing makes understanding all your coverage options highly important since you need to know what, and who is covered.
There are three main types of roofing warranties
- The standard manufacturer’s warranty covers the product, which is the roofing shingle, cedar shake, or slate.
- A workmanship warranty from your contractor that covers the installation which Paragon Roofing BC provides a 20-year warranty to all our roof replacements.
- An extended manufacturer’s warranty covers the whole roof, including the workmanship minus the disposal costs.
Standard Manufacturers’ Warranties
The industry standard for most roofing materials is a limited lifetime warranty. What is covered in the warranty, is defined by each manufacturer?
Most only cover the material and not any labor, disposal associated with removing, installing new shingles. Manufacturers usually cover the cost of replacing defective shingles and prorate the value according to their standards.
