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.

What Is a Roofing Warranty?

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

Not all warranties are created equal. Here's the difference:

  • Material-Only Coverage: 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.
  • Full Coverage Warranties: A labor/material warranty covers both the roofing materials and the installation work, offering protection against defects in either.

The Benefits of a Manufacturer-Backed Warranty

Manufacturer-backed warranties provide you with an extra layer of protection—if something goes wrong with the installation, the manufacturer steps in to help.
