What You Need to Know About Roof Warranties

Installing a new roof is a big endeavor, often costing several thousand dollars. This cost would make you concerned about the warranty that’s available to protect your investment. At Tri County Roofing, we understand that ensuring your roof has a long, leak-free life is important both for your peace of mind and your bank account. Our standing as a GAF Master Elite Contractor allows us to provide the best roofing warranties available today. Here’s what you should know about GAF roof warranties.

GAF’s Master Elite Contractor Program

At Tri County Roofing, we work closely with GAF, one of the most trusted names in roofing materials. As a Master Elite Contractor, we can offer an extended protection roofing warranty called the GAF Golden Pledge warranty. It’s a comprehensive warranty that gives you 25 years of protection against leaks, “no questions asked.” With Charleston’s wind zone being 130 MPH, that’s a lot of peace of mind for any homeowner.

Golden Pledge and System Plus Roof Warranties

Typical roof warranties cover only the materials, and only for a very limited time – around 10 years. GAF’s warranties, both the Golden Pledge and System Plus, offer 50 years of protection (20 years for 3-tab shingles). The Golden Pledge warranty also offers:

• Coverage for the entire roofing system
• Lifetime installation labor costs (25 or 30 years for 3-tab shingles)
• 25 year period of total coverage
• Installation performed by a certified installer
• Tear-off and disposal costs included (material/workmanship defects)
• 40 point factory inspection of materials
• Free warranty transfer

The System Plus roofing warranty offers:

• Coverage for the entire roofing system
• Lifetime installation labor costs (25 or 30 years for 3-tab shingles)
• 2 year period of total coverage
• Installation performed by a certified installer
• Tear-off costs included (material defects)
• Free warranty transfer

As you can see, both roof warranties offer several benefits. The System Plus warranty is a good option, especially for budget-conscious homeowners. The Golden Pledge warranty, while requiring a larger initial investment, provides much more comprehensive coverage, especially during the first 25 year of your new roof’s life.
