FAQs
What is a transferable workmanship warranty for roofing and how does it benefit me in Elizabethton?
A transferable workmanship warranty guarantees that the labor used to install, repair, or replace your roof meets professional standards. If any workmanship-related issue arises during the warranty period, we will correct it at no cost to you. In Elizabethton, where property values and weather conditions can vary, a transferable warranty adds resale value because the next homeowner receives the same protection, making your house more attractive on the market.
How long does your workmanship warranty last, and what happens after it expires?
Our standard workmanship warranty covers your roof for 10 years from the date of installation. During this period, any issue stemming from installation errors will be addressed free of charge. After the 10-year period, normal manufacturer warranties on roofing materials continue to protect you against material defects, but workmanship issues would no longer be covered by us unless you choose an extended service agreement.
What specific roofing services are covered under your workmanship warranty?
The warranty covers all labor aspects of roof installation and related services we perform, including shingle or metal panel installation, flashing, underlayment, ventilation components, and trim work. It also covers correction of leaks caused by workmanship errors and any interior or structural damage that results directly from those errors. Routine maintenance items (such as debris removal) and damage caused by storms, wildlife, or foot traffic are excluded.
How do I transfer the workmanship warranty if I sell my home in Elizabethton?
Transferring the warranty is simple. Within 60 days of closing, the new homeowner or real-estate agent must submit a Transfer Form along with a small administrative fee (currently $150) to our office. We then reissue the warranty certificate in the new owner’s name for the remainder of the original term. No inspection is usually required as long as the roof has not been altered.
Does the workmanship warranty also cover roofing materials, or do I need a separate warranty for that?
Workmanship and material warranties are separate but complementary. Our workmanship warranty covers labor-related defects, while your shingles or metal panels come with manufacturer warranties (typically 25–50 years) that protect against material defects. If a material fails, the manufacturer covers replacement product costs, and we handle the labor at a reduced or no cost under the manufacturer’s prorated terms.
What maintenance steps must I follow to keep the warranty in force?
To preserve your workmanship warranty, you must: (1) conduct a visual roof inspection at least once a year and after major storms; (2) keep gutters and downspouts clean to prevent water backup; (3) avoid walking on the roof unless absolutely necessary; (4) address any storm or animal damage promptly; and (5) notify us in writing within 30 days of discovering a leak or defect. Failure to follow these steps could void the warranty, so we also offer affordable annual maintenance plans if you prefer professional help.
