15 Aug Understanding Roof Warranties: What Do They Cover?

When investing in a new roof, one of the most important considerations is the warranty that comes with it. A roof warranty not only protects your financial investment but also provides peace of mind knowing that your home is safeguarded against potential issues. Universal Roof and Contracting offers some of the most comprehensive warranty options in the industry, ensuring that your roof stands the test of time. Here’s what you need to know about our roof warranties.

1. Owens Corning System Protection Warranty

The Owens Corning System Protection Warranty is one of the most robust options available, designed to provide lifelong coverage for your roof. Here are the key features:

• Lifetime Duration: This warranty ensures that your roof is protected for its entire lifespan, giving you long-term security.
• TRU PROtection® Period: For the first 10 years after installation, Universal Roof and Contracting covers all labor costs associated with any necessary repairs or replacements. This ensures that if any issues arise early on, you won’t be out of pocket.
• Material Coverage: After the initial 10 years, the warranty continues to protect the materials used in your roof for an additional 10 years.
• StreakGuard™ Algae Resistance: This feature provides protection against algae growth for the first 10 years, which is particularly important for homes in humid climates.
• Blow Off Coverage: For the first 15 years, your roof is covered against wind damage, offering added protection against Florida’s frequent storms.

2. Owens Corning Platinum Protection Warranty

For homeowners looking for the most extensive coverage, the Owens Corning Platinum Protection Warranty offers unrivaled protection:

• Extended Lifetime Duration: This warranty goes above and beyond, providing a total of 100 years of coverage when combining the TRU PROtection® and material protection periods.
• TRU PROtection® Period: Unlike the System Protection Warranty, the Platinum version extends this period to 50 years, covering all labor and materials costs for half a century.
• Algae and Wind Protection: Like the System Protection Warranty, it includes 10 years of algae resistance and 15 years of wind damage coverage.
• Workmanship Coverage: This warranty includes lifetime workmanship coverage, which reduces after 25 years but still provides significant protection for decades.

3. Additional Workmanship Guarantees

Beyond the manufacturer-backed warranties, Universal Roof and Contracting stands behind our work with these additional guarantees:

• 10-Year Workmanship Guarantee: This guarantee covers any issues arising from the installation process for the first decade.
• 25-Year Transferable Workmanship Warranty: This warranty is non-prorated, meaning it does not decrease in value over time, and can be transferred to a new homeowner if you decide to sell your home within the warranty period.
