Different 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: Manufacturers typically offer these warranties, covering defects in the materials like shingles and underlayment.
  • Labor and Installation Warranties: These warranties cover installation-related issues and are offered by roofing contractors.

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

The Importance of Registered Warranties

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

  • Extended Coverage: Registering your warranty can provide extended coverage and better terms.
  • Ownership Confirmation: 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.

How to Transfer Roof Warranties to New Owners

A transferable warranty can be a major benefit when selling your home. Many warranties allow a one-time transfer to the new owners, with conditions such as:

  • There may be transfer fees or required notifications to complete the process.
  • Time limits often apply, such as needing to transfer within the first year.

To ensure the warranty’s value is preserved, discuss transfer details with your contractor.
