Warranty
Our roofing warranty
Every Capital T roof comes with two warranties: ours on the workmanship, and the manufacturer's on the shingles. Here's what each one covers, in plain words.
Warranty
Our workmanship warranty
- Name
- [e.g. "Capital T Workmanship Warranty"]
- Covers
- Leaks caused by our installation: flashing, nailing, underlayment, ventilation we installed
- Doesn't cover
- Storm damage, falling trees, other trades' work on the roof later, ice dams caused by attic insulation we didn't do
Warranty
Manufacturer shingle warranty
Shingle line: GAF Timberline (on our recent jobs).
Standard
Manufacturer warranty covers defects in the shingles themselves.
Enhanced system warranties
(covering more of the roof system and sometimes labor) are only available from certified installers.
Registration
We register your shingle warranty after the job and give you the paperwork.
How to keep your warranty valid
- Keep your contract and the warranty paperwork together.
- Don't let other trades (solar, satellite, HVAC) cut into the roof without telling us; we can flash their penetrations properly.
- Keep gutters clear so water doesn't back up under the first course.
FAQ
Questions homeowners ask us
Is the warranty in writing?
Yes, it's part of your contract.
What's the difference between your warranty and the shingle warranty?
Ours covers how the roof was installed. The manufacturer's covers the shingles themselves. Most roof leaks are installation problems, which is why the workmanship warranty matters more.
