How important is a roof warranty? With #RolfTheRoofingGuy
How important is your roof warranty?
It shouldn’t be. There, I said it.
How do you buy anything? Do you buy a car based upon the warranty?
Then why does anyone buy a roof based upon a warranty?
When you buy a Cars or Truck, don’t you buy what you need?
· If you haul construction materials you buy a truck, for people you buy a sedan.
· So, it’s the right vehicle for the need.
· How long will it last? They come with a 3 Years or 36K Miles Warranty.
· The warranty requires twice a year service/inspection.
· Do most people do it? Probably so.
· And cars typically last 11-12 years (or 400% of warranty)
When you buy a roof, do you buy what you need?:
· Is it a robust roof in an area with significant foot traffic?
· Do you select the right roof for the need?
· How long will it last? They come with a 20 Year Warranty.
· The warranty requires twice a year service/inspection.
· Do most building owners do it? Probably not.
· Roofs typically last 17 years (85% of the warranty)
How do you get to a roof that achieves its potential life?
· Buy the right roof for the need.
· Perform twice a year inspections and Preventative Maintenance (PM)
· Remember, it’s not the warranty (it’s only paper) that keeps you dry, the roof does.
· You can’t ignore the roof.
Imagine a roof that far outlives it’s intended lifespan, doesn’t that sound like #Sustainability?
Is getting a warranty important? Sure. Absolutely. But it shouldn’t be the only decision point.
