Warranty

Replacing your roof is an essential home repair. Generally speaking, a new shingled roof should last approximately 20+ years. Some visual signs that you need a new roof include: curling shingles, leaks, missing shingles, rotting, blistering, algae growth, and buckling. If you think it may be time to replace your roof, the best thing to do is to call a professional for an assessment and recommendations. When you are investing in your home, you want to ensure you are choosing the right company for the job. One big factor in choosing a company is the warranty that is provided for the work that is done on your home. Weather Tight and Owens Corning provide the best warranty in the Milwaukee Metropolitan area for roofing: The Platinum Promise.

What is included in the Platinum Promise Warranty?

The Platinum Promise warranty is only available to Platinum Preferred Contractors and their customers. This warranty covers the cost of labor, materials, all accessories, and installation defects for an entire TWENTY years! The shingles come with a separate warranty. The length of the shingle warranty varies depending upon which style of shingle you replace. The warranties vary from 25 to 50 years. These warranties set us apart from the average roofing contractor.

How does the Platinum Promise Warranty compare to the Standard Warranty?

When other contractors install an Owens Corning roof on your home, they can only offer you a five year warranty that covers labor and accessories. This warranty does not cover installation defects and the shingle warranty is shorter as well. Both of these standard warranties provided by Owens Corning can only be offered by a Preferred Contractor, which some companies have not achieved. Purchasing your roof through Weather Tight gives you the assurance that your roof is covered by the company that is installing your roof as well as the manufacturer for a full twenty years, and even longer for the shingles. No other company in the Milwaukee Metropolitan area can provide that to you.

How does Owens Corning’s warranty differ from other manufacturers?

Many manufacturers offer warranties but how can you tell if one is better than the other? Look for loopholes. Ask questions to help you understand the entirety of the warranty that is provided by the manufacturer as well as the company that installs your roof. Here are some questions that can help you differentiate the warranties:

• What is included in the warranty?
• Is labor included?
• Does it cover more than manufacturing defects?
• How long is the warranty?
• Is the warranty pro-rated?
• Does the warranty transfer to subsequent homeowners?
