Using non-certified contractors and “lifetime” warranties

A lifetime warranty on a roof shingle typically means that the manufacturer guarantees the shingle against defects and premature failure for the expected lifetime of the product. However, it’s important to understand that the term “lifetime” can vary depending on the specific warranty terms and the manufacturer’s definition. In the context of roof shingles, a lifetime warranty typically refers to the expected lifespan of the product, which can range from 25 to 50 years, depending on the quality and type of shingle.

The exact coverage and conditions of a lifetime warranty can vary between manufacturers, so it’s important to review the specific warranty documentation provided by the shingle manufacturer. Some key points to consider may include:

Duration: Check the specific time frame or years that the warranty covers. It may vary based on the manufacturer and the type of shingle.
Coverage: Understand what aspects of the shingle are covered by the warranty. This may include defects in materials or workmanship, as well as premature failure or damage caused by specific events.
Exclusions: Pay attention to any exclusions or limitations mentioned in the warranty. Certain conditions, such as improper installation, natural disasters, or lack of proper maintenance, may void the warranty.
Transferability: Determine if the warranty is transferable to subsequent homeowners. Some warranties may be transferable, while others may only apply to the original purchaser.
Prorated vs. non-prorated: Prorated warranties provide decreasing coverage over time, while non-prorated warranties offer full coverage for the specified duration. Understand which type of warranty is being offered.

To ensure you fully understand the terms and conditions of the warranty, it’s recommended to read the warranty documentation carefully and consult with the manufacturer or a roofing professional if you have any specific questions or concerns.

Your roof installation must:

Have sufficient attic ventilation.
Have a qualifying underlayment.
Have the correct number of fasteners per shingle.

It is important to have a qualified installers install your roof. If your new roof is not correctly installed your warranty is voided as soon as they walk off the job.
