What is your standard warranty that you give a customer on a reroof and a repair?

We do it until its the materials fault.

A "taillight" guarantee. When they can't see the tail-lights anymore, the guarantee is up.

Actually, we don't do that much roofing anymore. Usually we will fix anything that we did wrong, but we don't do anything wrong and therefore we don't have to fix anything.

---on all laminate shingles we offer 10 year warranties. Why not as we have never had one leak. On torch it varies depending upon the roof. 1 year for dead flat unless I can sell them 2 layers. Regular low pitch torch is 5 years. Shake is usually 10 years. And yes, the manufacturer will dance out of any claims...I do not specify transerable warranties unless the customer is selling and asks for one. Lanny

5 years workmanship on new installations (shingle, slate, tile, rubber) 30 days workmanship on shingle and rubber repair

When doing a slate leak repair we inform the customer that although there were offending slate in the area that we repaired, it is possible that the leak is coming from an area higher than where the leak shows.

Material warranty is what it is. We let the customer know what the manufacturer offers.

If the manufacturers won't honor the original warranty, what make you think they will honor an extended warranty? Why would you sell something that you know is worthless?

Would you sell an extended warranty to your customers if it increased their coverage and removed the libility from you?

5 yrs on new construction and reroofing for anything workmanship related.

No warranty on repairs or anything to do with skylights.

The manufacturer warranty applies to the materials, which changes all the time. I don't even try to keep up with it, since they try to get out of 99% of warranty claims anyway.

No i'm not copying Vaa! 5 yrs. on replacements and 1 yr. on repairs. The repair warranty has a money back guarantee within 1 yr. ( I personally sell the repairs and sometimes perform the work as well but not always )
