Roofing Warranties: The 20-Year Promise That Depends on Specific Installation and Inspection
Commercial roofing warranties from manufacturers (20-30 year typical) transfer risk from owner to manufacturer — but only if installation follows specific manufacturer requirements, inspections happen at required points, and warranty registration completes properly. Missing any of these breaks the warranty. Understanding what manufacturers require, what GCs need to coordinate, and how to maintain warranty validity is essential on every commercial roofing project.
