How much do you know about your commercial roofing warranty? Would you like to get the most out of your new roof by learning about warranty protection allowances? It’s important to familiarize yourself with warranty knowledge not only to protect the financial investment of a new roof but to keep a commercial property in tip-top shape. Here are the elements that affect a commercial roofing warranty you need to know to ensure you do not void a service contract.
- Roofing Material Warranty
Most roofing warranties provide consumer protections against manufacturer material defects as long as you utilize the services of a certified roofing contractor. This ensures your contractor has the knowledge of working with the manufacturer’s materials and has the experience to install them professionally. The roofing material warranty will also provide further consumer protections for a new roofing repair or replacement.
- Roof System Warranty
A roof system warranty provides consumers with additional protection. Not only will you receive system protection for material defects, but residential and commercial property owners will also not have to pay for labor costs of the repair or replacement. A roofing system warranty provides peace-of-mind to property owners who worry about unexpected expenditures or lack the resources to pay out-of-pocket for roofing repairs. Manufacturers often depend on professional contractors like North Shore Roofing to provide certified warranty-related inspections, installations, and repair or replacements.
- Quality of Workmanship Warranty
The quality of workmanship is a critical type of warranty that relates to the contractor you choose to install, repair, or replace a commercial or residential roof. If contractors are reputable, they tend to offer a warranty on their roof work. We want to stress the importance of choosing North Shore Roofing over another roofer because we honor our contractor warranty and provide quality workmanship meant to last a property owner long-term.

How Long Is The Warranty On A New Roof?
Commonly, a roof warranty comes with a manufacturer’s guarantee of its materials, which can last from anywhere between fifteen and fifty years. The warranty only protects material defects, but installation, low-maintenance, or preservation carelessness will also void the roof’s warranty.
What Is A Standard Roof Warranty?
A standard roof warranty typically lasts the shelf life of a roof unless an extended warranty is purchased for the roof. Standard warranties tend to simply cover shingle repairs or replacement, the damage caused by the material defect (such as leaks), and a contractor’s repair labor costs.
What Voids A Roof Warranty?
A roof warranty is voided if a property owner hires an unauthorized roofing contractor and material is installed incorrectly. If a property owner fails to provide annual maintenance and upkeep, it will also make a warranty invalid. If home or business owners cause damage when performing upkeep, the manufacturer will refuse warranty protection if actions are unapproved.
