Different Types of Roof Warranties

Before purchasing a new roof, it’s important to know the warranty options. Roof warranties generally come in two main types:

  • Warranties for Roofing Materials: Offered by the manufacturer, these warranties cover material defects such as issues with shingles or underlayment.
  • Installation Warranties: Labor warranties cover installation issues and are offered by the roofing professionals.

Certain warranties combine both material and labor coverage, offering full protection for homeowners.

A-Abel’s Warranty Options

We offer top-tier warranty options at A-Abel Roofing, with certified Owens Corning shingles. These warranties include:

  • Essential Warranty: This warranty covers material defects for a set period.
  • Comprehensive Warranties: This warranty offers additional coverage, including wind damage and resistance to algae growth.

Labor warranties ensure your roof is installed to the highest standard, complementing our material warranties.



The Importance of Registered Warranties

Registering your warranty is essential to unlock more benefits, including:

  • Longer Warranty Period: Many warranties offer extended protection once registered.
  • Proof of Ownership: Registration provides proof of ownership, easing any potential claims.

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

Transferring Your Roof Warranty: What You Need to Know

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 or required notification can apply when transferring the warranty.
  • Many warranties set a time limit for transfer, such as within one year.

Talking with your contractor about the transfer process will help protect your warranty’s value.
