Roofing Warranties
Three warranties protect every RoofX roof. Here's exactly what each one covers. And what most contractors don't tell you about them.
The Three Warranties
What it covers: Defects in the roofing material itself (shingles, underlayment, flashing). Provided by the manufacturer (GAF, Owens Corning, etc.). Typical length: 25–50 years on residential shingle systems, lifetime on premium systems.
What it does not: Improper installation, storm damage, normal wear. This is where the next two warranties matter.
What it covers: Anything that goes wrong because of how we installed the roof. Leaks at flashing, missed nail patterns, ventilation issues. If it's our work, we fix it. At no charge to you.
What it does not: Length: 10 years on most installs. Specifics confirmed in writing at job completion.
What it covers: Storm damage during the warranty period. Typically tied to the manufacturer's enhanced warranty programs (e.g., GAF Golden Pledge, Owens Corning Platinum Protection).
What it does not: How RoofX helps: we walk you through exactly which manufacturer warranty to elect at install. Most homeowners don't realize there are tiers. And the wrong tier could mean thousands in out-of-pocket later.
