Exploring the Types of Roof Warranties

Investing in a new roof means also considering warranty options. Roof warranties typically fall into two primary categories:

  • Manufacturer Warranties: Offered by the manufacturer, these warranties cover material defects such as issues with shingles or underlayment.
  • Labor and Installation Warranties: These warranties are provided by contractors and cover issues arising from the installation process.

Some warranties cover both materials and labor, providing a more comprehensive protection plan for your roof.

A-Abel Roofing’s Warranty Plans

A-Abel Roofing offers solid warranty options to protect your roof. As certified installers of Owens Corning shingles, we provide access to premium warranties, such as:

  • Basic Material Warranty: A standard protection plan that covers material defects for a specified time.
  • Enhanced Warranty Options: Includes additional protection, such as wind damage or algae resistance.

In addition to these material warranties, we offer labor warranties to ensure proper installation and top-quality results.



The Importance of Registered Warranties

Homeowners often need to register their warranties after installation. This registration can bring additional perks, such as:

  • More Coverage: Extended coverage is often available once you register your warranty.
  • Proof of Ownership: Registration simplifies the claims process by verifying your eligibility.

Our team will guide you through the registration process to ensure you receive all available benefits.

Transferring Your Roof Warranty When Selling Your Home

If you’re selling your home, a transferable roof warranty can be a valuable selling point. Many warranties allow for a one-time transfer, giving the new owners peace of mind. However, there are often conditions, such as:

  • Some warranties may require a fee or a formal notification for the transfer.
  • Many warranties set a time limit for transfer, such as within one year.

Discussing these details with your contractor ensures a smooth transition and preserves the warranty’s value.
