ROOF EXPRESS | Roof Warranty Guide

More Than Just a Shingle Warranty

A roof is a complex system, not just a layer of shingles. At Roof Express, we believe in transparency. Understanding the difference between Manufacturer Coverage and Workmanship Guarantees is critical to protecting your home for decades, not just years.

Manufacturer Warranty

The Materials

Covers defects in the shingles themselves.
Typically ranges from 25 years to Lifetime.
Often prorated (loses value over time) unless upgraded.

Workmanship Warranty

The Labor & Installation

Covers installation errors (leaks, blow-offs).
Provided by Roof Express as your contractor.
Backed by our Diamond Certified status.

The "System" Advantage

Because Roof Express is a certified installer for major brands, we can offer System Warranties. This covers the entire roofing assembly—underlayment, starter strips, ventilation, and hip & ridge caps—non-prorated for up to 50 years.

Non-Prorated Transferable

The Fine Print: What to Watch For

Ventilation is Non-Negotiable

Manufacturer warranties can be voided if the attic is not properly ventilated. We calculate Net Free Area (NFA) on every project to ensure compliance.

Unauthorized Repairs

Allowing an unlicensed handyman or installing satellite dishes improperly can void your leak warranty. Always call us first.

Transferability Rules

Selling your home? Most premium warranties are transferable one time to a new owner, increasing your home's resale value. We handle the paperwork for you.

Have a Warranty Question?

Whether we installed your roof or not, we can inspect it and verify its current condition.
