Below is a example of a roofing material We occasionally use Owens Corning
Roofing Material
When you make an important investment in your home - like installing a new
roof, you should understand the warranty protection that comes with it. In
addition to any warranty that may be provided by your contractor for the labor
and installation of the roof, Owens Corning provides you with a Limited
Warranty on the shingles.
In addition to the automatic Limited Shingle Warranty coverage you get when
installing our shingles, we now offer a new "system" warranty called the
Roofing System Advantage™ Warranty. Upon meeting the eligibility for this new
warranty, you get several added benefits, including an extended upfront
NON-prorated period of coverage. However, you must register for the Roofing
System Advantage Warranty - coverage is not automatic.
Owens Corning wants to ensure that you fully understand our Limited Shingle
Warranty, and if applicable to your roof, our new Roofing System Advantage
Warranty.
Standard Limited Shingle Warranty
1. Coverage begins automatically upon completion of the installation of the
shingles.
2. The Warranty covers any manufacturing defects that affect shingle
performance.
3. Defective shingles will be repaired or replaced, including labor
(excluding metal work, flashings, tear-off, or disposal costs), at Owens
Corning's cost.
4. After the first year of the Warranty Period, the amount of the cost to
be paid by Owens Corning will be prorated based upon the number of months
which have elapsed in the warranty period. That is, the cost covered by the
Warranty will be reduced according to the following forumula:
....
|
Shingle Repair or Replacement Cost |

5. No
registration of the Warranty is required, but proof of purchase will be
required at the time any claim is made.....
6. The Warranty is not transferable to subsequent purchasers of your home.
