Most homeowners and business owners generally understand the term “warranty.” They likely believe that a warranty offers some level of consumer protection on a purchased good or service. However, it is doubtful that most have actually read the fine print in their warranty. Unfortunately, these details matter when determining whether a warranty covers a particular situation. Warranty terms and conditions can be difficult to decipher. Part of the challenge depends on the type of warranty being reviewed. Part of it concerns the warranty’s issuer and how they approach coverage.
The Importance Of Warranties To Protect Your Roof
Typically, a roofing warranty comes in one of three types: (1) a manufacturer’s warranty, (2) a workmanship warranty, and (3) an extended manufacturer’s warranty (i.e., comprehensive coverage). Within this scope, many roofing manufacturers provide a standard limited lifetime warranty.
A roof warranty offers many benefits, including the following advantages:
1. Added Property Value
Major roofing manufacturers incorporate a valuable transferability element into a standard roof warranty. That way, the warranty’s initial possessor (“owner”) can pass the coverage terms to the subsequent purchaser of the home or building.
2. Financial Security
Unfortunate incidents can strike unexpectedly and at the most inopportune times. A roofing warranty acts like an insurance policy if a covered peril arises. The property owner can trust the roofing warranty as an economic safeguard against loss.
3. Long-Term Peace Of Mind
Owning a roof under warranty provides the possessor with peace of mind. They understand that a covered incident will result in a meaningful way to secure recovery from the warranty provider (i.e., the manufacturer/supplier or roofing contractor).
