The roof warranty is a type of insurance policy for your roof, ensuring it’s given the coverage it needs should anything happen to affect its service life and performance. But a roof warranty comes with stipulations, and you’ll want to make sure that nothing can nullify its coverage. Here are the things you should avoid doing to ensure your roof warranty remains valid.
1. Working with another roofing company. The fact is that most, if not all, roofing manufacturers specify which contractors are authorized to install or repair their products. These contractors are usually trained and tested by the manufacturer to earn a certification, which proves their high level of knowledge regarding the product and work process, ensuring that it will be installed or repaired to specific requirements. Working with anyone other than the certified contractor can easily void your roof warranty.
2. Overlooking prompt repair and maintenance. Keeping your roof in good condition is your responsibility as a homeowner. If your roofing system has developed an issue and you put off its repair and succeeding maintenance, you may very well nullify the roof warranty due to inaction.
3. Installing unnecessary additions to the roofing system. Except for the chimney and vent pipes, nothing else should be protruding from the roof surface. This means you should avoid setting up satellite dishes or installing skylights on your roof since they create openings that make the system more vulnerable to leaks.
