Exploring the Types of Roof Warranties

It’s essential to understand roof warranty options when installing a new roof. Typically, there are two main types of roof warranties to consider:

  • Product Warranties: These warranties are provided by the manufacturer to cover defects in roofing materials like shingles and underlayment.
  • Labor Warranties: Offered by roofing contractors, these cover issues related to the installation process.

In some cases, warranties combine both material and labor protection, giving you all-around coverage.

Why Choose A-Abel’s Roof Warranties?

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: A standard warranty that covers material defects over a defined time frame.
  • Premium Extended Protection: This warranty offers additional coverage, including wind damage and resistance to algae growth.

In addition to these material warranties, we offer labor warranties to ensure proper installation and top-quality results.



Why You Should Register Your Roof Warranty

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.
  • Registration Proof: Proof of ownership helps streamline the warranty claims process.

At A-Abel Roofing, we help you navigate the registration process to maximize your warranty benefits.

Transferring Your Roof Warranty When Selling Your Home

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:

  • Transfer fees and notification requirements are common when transferring warranties.
  • 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.
