ROOF WARRANTY
Not all roofing warranties are equal. There is much confusion on exactly what types of warranties are out there and what they actually cover.
The term
No Dollar Limit refers to the fact that the warranty coverage is not restricted to the original purchase price and allows for price increases due to inflation and other cost factors. This warranty is seldom exercised due to the need for catastrophic failure to occur in conjunction with increased roofing prices.
The
Non Pro-Rated Warranty is a warranty that holds its value throughout the life of the warranty term. This type warranty is not discounted as the roof ages. The warranty holds the same value in the first year of the warranted term as it does the last year.
Total System Warranties are warranties that cover every aspect of the roof system. This varies from a material warranty that may only cover replacement materials and not the labor to install the new material.
A
Single Source Warranty is structured in a way that there is one party responsible for both workmanship and material of the entire roof system. This covers all aspects of the roof system and the related workmanship required making any needed repairs.
As a final note, the buyer should determine what it is they would like to accomplish with a warranty. This should take into consideration the reasons why the previous roof has failed; how long the building will be owned; what the current use and potential future use of the building may be; and who they want covering potential future needs.
Remember, all roofs leak. The question is will it be inside or outside of the warranty period. With this in mind a buyer needs to determine how important it is to have the original installer who is most familiar with the roof, do the repair work.
Not all roofers are approved by the roofing manufacturer will be approved by the manufacture when both labor and material warranty is required by the owner. Castro Roofing of Texas is approved by the majority of all major roofing manufactures. We are proud to be associated with the following top roofing manufacturers. |
