Roofing systems usually come with warranties that protect homeowners from additional costs arising from material defects and other specified issues. GAF, a leading manufacturer in the roofing industry, offers a range of warranties that cater to different needs and preferences. Continue reading to learn more about these warranties.
GAF warranties are designed to provide homeowners peace of mind, assuring them that their investment is protected. The warranties cover various aspects of roofing systems, from manufacturing defects to workmanship errors, depending on the level of warranty coverage you choose.
A notable feature of GAF warranties is the Lifetime warranty option, which is applicable as long as the original owner of a single-family detached residence owns the property. This coverage includes manufacturing defects on GAF shingles and specific accessories. It is important to note that for Lifetime coverage to apply, the installation must include GAF Lifetime shingles.
The GAF warranty system also includes several options, tailored to fit every homeowner’s needs.
GAF Shingle and Accessory Limited Warranty: It offers basic protection against manufacturing defects in GAF shingles and accessories for 10 years.
GAF Roofing System Limited Warranty: It provides more comprehensive coverage for the entire roofing system for up to 50 years.
System Plus Limited Warranty: This enhances the basic coverage to include the installation cost for the lifespan of the shingles.
Silver Pledge™ Limited Warranty: This adds another layer of protection by covering workmanship, including misapplication of shingles and accessories, for the first 10 years.
Golden Pledge® Limited Warranty: This is GAF’s most extensive option, covering workmanship (including misapplication of shingles, accessories, and flashings) for 25-30 years.
Selecting a GAF warranty should be based on several factors, including your long-term housing plans, local climate conditions, and budget. For homeowners planning to stay in their homes for many years, opting for comprehensive coverage like the Golden Pledge Warranty might be the best choice. It’s also crucial to work with a GAF-certified contractor to ensure quality installation and eligibility for enhanced warranty options.
Choosing a GAF-certified contractor is not just a recommendation but a necessity for homeowners looking to make the most out of their roofing warranties. Certified contractors are trained to meet GAF’s high standards, ensuring your roof is installed properly and qualifies for the enhanced warranty options. They provide the expertise needed to navigate the warranty’s benefits, making them valuable partners in your roofing project.
