Understanding the Different Roof Warranty Options

Investing in a new roof means also considering warranty options. Roof warranties typically fall into two primary categories:

  • Manufacturer Warranties: Issued by the manufacturer, these warranties cover defects in materials like shingles or underlayment.
  • Labor Warranties: These warranties are provided by contractors and cover issues arising from the installation process.

Some warranties cover both materials and labor, providing a more comprehensive protection plan for your roof.

Our Warranty Options at A-Abel Roofing

At A-Abel Roofing, we ensure you’re covered with reliable warranties. As certified installers of Owens Corning shingles, we offer premium material warranties, which include:

  • Standard Warranty: This warranty covers material defects for a set period.
  • Extended Protection Plans: Extended warranties offer extra protection, including resistance to wind damage and algae.

Our labor warranties complement these options, ensuring that your roof is expertly installed and backed by our commitment to quality.



Maximizing Your Roof Warranty Through Registration

Many manufacturers require homeowners to register their warranties after installation. Registered warranties offer additional benefits, including:

  • Extended Coverage: Some warranties provide enhanced terms upon registration.
  • Proof of Ownership: By registering, you streamline the claims process and prove ownership.

Let A-Abel Roofing help you navigate the registration process and unlock full warranty benefits.

Transferring Warranties to New Homeowners

If you’re selling your home, a transferable roof warranty can be a valuable selling point. Many warranties allow for a one-time transfer, giving the new owners peace of mind. However, there are often conditions, such as:

  • Some warranties may require a fee or a formal notification for the transfer.
  • Some warranties require that the transfer be completed within a specific time frame, such as the first year.

Work with your contractor to make sure the transfer process goes smoothly and the warranty holds its value.
