Top 5 Things That Can Void Your Roof’s Warranty
Did you know that your roofing warranty can be voided if you don’t take the right steps to protect your roof? Things like doing DIY roof repair or hiring amateurs to work on your roof can void your warranty. Read on as Sprague Construction Roofing LLC shares advice on how to protect your warranty.
Installing Antennas
Installing new antennas on your roof can potentially void your warranty as this requires drilling into your roof, which can cause leaks. Before installing a new antenna, read your warranty closely to ensure that you’ll still be protected.
Pressure Washing
Most asphalt shingles cannot withstand high-pressure water cleaning. Though effective at cleaning moss and other debris from your roof, pressure washing loosens the shingles’ protective granules, which can eventually crumble under the onslaught, voiding your warranty. We offer restoration services as an alternative to help you clean your roof safely and effectively, while keeping your warranty intact.
Improper Insulation
Consult your warranty before applying spray foam onto your shingles. Spray foam can void your warranty due to discoloration and improper application. If you need to insulate your attic, allow us to handle the project; we’ll be sure to do it in a safe way that doesn’t affect your warranty.
Solar Panels
Installing solar panels can breach your warranty. Solar panels require proper installation from an experienced professional, as doing the job incorrectly can displace your shingles. When in doubt, call us to help you with solar panel installation.
Faulty Installation
Amateur roofers often perform shoddy repair work that may exacerbate the damage to your roof. Warranties provide strict guidelines that must be followed exactly to protect your roof’s service life. Never entrust roof repair to anyone but an experienced, licensed contractor with an excellent reputation.
