Roof Warranties in Tampa: What Each One Covers
Three layers of protection: the manufacturer’s material warranty, our 10-year workmanship warranty, and storm coverage where it applies.
Three Layers of Protection
Manufacturer Material Warranty
Covers defects in the roofing material itself: shingles, underlayment and flashing. Provided by the manufacturer, such as GAF or Owens Corning. Length varies by product and system.
Does not cover improper installation, storm damage or normal wear. That is where the next two layers matter.
Roof X Workmanship Warranty
Covers anything that goes wrong because of how we installed the roof: leaks at flashing, fastening, ventilation. If it is our work, we fix it at no charge, backed by up to $25,000 in coverage.
Ten years on most installs. Specifics are confirmed in writing at job completion.
Storm Coverage (Where Applicable)
Covers storm damage during the warranty period. Typically tied to the manufacturer’s enhanced programs, such as GAF Golden Pledge or Owens Corning Platinum Protection.
We walk you through which manufacturer warranty to elect at install. There are tiers, and the wrong tier can mean thousands out of pocket later.
