Roofing Warranties in Clarksville, TN

Roofing warranties can be confusing. There are manufacturer warranties. There are workmanship warranties. There are prorated and non-prorated. There are transferable and nontransferable. It is easy to get lost.

We have been navigating roofing warranties in Clarksville since 2003. We know what is covered. What is not. And how to make sure you are protected.

This article covers roofing warranties for Clarksville homeowners. The different types. What they cover. And what voids them. Call (931) 666-1469 to discuss your warranty options.

The Two Types of Roofing Warranties

Let us start with the manufacturer warranty. This covers defects in the shingles themselves. If the shingles crack, curl, or lose granules prematurely, the manufacturer pays for replacement shingles. They may also pay for labor, depending on the warranty level.

Standard manufacturer warranties are prorated. That means in year one, they cover 100 percent. In year ten, they cover 50 percent. In year twenty, they cover 20 percent. You pay the rest. Also, standard warranties only cover materials, not labor. You pay the roofer to install the replacement shingles.

Upgraded manufacturer warranties (like GAF Golden Pledge or Owens Corning Platinum) are non-prorated. They cover 100 percent of materials and labor for the full warranty period (typically 25 to 50 years). But they require the roofer to be certified. We are certified for both GAF and Owens Corning.

Now the workmanship warranty. This covers installation errors. If the roofer nails incorrectly, or fails to seal a flashing, or leaves a gap, the workmanship warranty covers the repair. Our workmanship warranty is ten years. That is longer than most local roofers. If a leak appears because of our installation, we fix it for free.

Some roofers offer no workmanship warranty. Some offer one year. Some offer ve. We offer ten. That is how con dent we are in our crews.
