Types of Roof Warranties

When investing in a new roof, understanding the warranty options available is crucial. There are two primary types of roof warranties:

  • Material Coverage Warranties: Provided by the manufacturer, these cover defects in the roofing materials, such as shingles or underlayment.
  • Labor Warranties: Labor warranties cover installation issues and are offered by the roofing professionals.

There are warranties that combine both types, offering complete protection for your roof and peace of mind.

Our Warranty Options at A-Abel Roofing

At A-Abel Roofing, we’re committed to providing peace of mind with our comprehensive warranty options. As certified installers of Owens Corning shingles, we offer premium material warranties, including:

  • Extended Protection Plans: Includes extra coverage, such as resistance to wind and algae damage.

Labor warranties ensure your roof is installed to the highest standard, complementing our material warranties.



The Importance of Registered Warranties

After installation, many manufacturers ask homeowners to register their warranties. This provides added benefits such as:

  • Extended Coverage: Many warranties offer extended protection once registered.
  • Ownership Confirmation: Registration provides proof of ownership, easing any potential claims.

We assist with the registration process to ensure you get the full benefit of your warranty.

Transferring Your Roof Warranty: What You Need to Know

Selling your home? A transferable warranty can be a great asset. Many warranties allow one transfer, offering security for the new owner. But be aware of conditions like:

  • There may be transfer fees or required notifications to complete the process.
  • Time restrictions, such as transferring within a year, may apply to your warranty.

Talking with your contractor about the transfer process will help protect your warranty’s value.
