Warranties

We make sure the right product is used for its environment

Most roofing companies offer a ‘warranty’ for their products. All warranties are not the same. Just because a company is willing to give you a warranty won’t make your roof or cladding any more durable or resistant to the elements.

If you don’t meet the demanding conditions, and the roof starts to quickly fail, the full replacement cost may be at your expense.

Maintenance

Basic maintenance will prolong your roof life.

All roofing and cladding products require regular maintenance to keep them looking good, to prolong their life and to meet the terms of any product warranty.

Choosing the right product for the environment is the best way to reduce maintenance time. Talk to your representative or roofing installer for the best advice on your roofs maintenance.
