The GAF coverage period for materials, parts, and labor defects is 50 years non-prorated and applies exclusively to single-family detached residences. For all other structures, the coverage period is 20 years, non-prorated. Enhanced warranties are only available through GAF-certified contractors. Be sure to verify that your roofing professional holds the proper certification. Acres Roofing ensures exceptional quality by conducting a thorough roof inspection upon the completion of every project.
A new roof represents a significant investment, typically lasting 25 to 40 years or more. Understanding your warranty coverage beforehand can help safeguard this investment and potentially save you thousands in the event of any issues.
GAF’s cutting-edge manufacturing process significantly reduces the likelihood of issues with a new roof, with a probability of just 1 in 1,000. Nevertheless, should a problem arise, repair expenses can equal the cost of the initial installation. Despite the low risk, securing the appropriate warranty can offer essential protection and peace of mind.
Research indicates that more than two-thirds of roofing problems arise from inadequate workmanship rather than material defects. This highlights the importance of hiring a GAF-certified contractor like Acres Roofing, which guarantees expert installation and ensures long-lasting performance.
When discussing your roofing options with your contractor, it’s important to address two main types of coverage: protection against material defects and coverage for workmanship errors. Ensure that both types of coverage are documented in writing for your complete peace of mind.
GAF’s warranties feature the Smart Choice® Protection Period, offering comprehensive coverage against material defects during the crucial early years of your roof. If a covered component fails, GAF will provide 100% replacement materials and cover the reasonable installation labor costs. This is a significant benefit, as many warranties only include material coverage and exclude labor.
