Warranty & Insurance

What warranty comes with a new roof from Alpha Eagle?

Two warranties: the manufacturer covers the materials (typically 30–50 years on architectural shingles, lifetime on premium lines) and we cover the installation labor for 10 years. Both are written, transferable, and registered with the manufacturer at job completion.

Every full roof replacement comes with two separate, written warranties:

  • Manufacturer warranty (materials). Coverage depends on the product chosen — typically 30 years on architectural asphalt shingles, 40–50 years on premium designer shingles, 50 years on standing-seam metal, lifetime on most clay tile. We register the warranty with the manufacturer at job completion and provide you the documentation.
  • Alpha Eagle workmanship warranty (labor). 10 years from the certificate-of-completion date, covering installation defects. Fully transferable to a new owner if you sell the home (one transfer permitted).

The two warranties cover different failure modes: the manufacturer covers material defects (e.g., shingle granule loss before the rated life); we cover installation issues (e.g., a nail driven too high, a flashing detail done wrong). On certified-installer-grade systems (GAF Master Elite, CertainTeed SELECT), we can also issue an extended manufacturer-backed system warranty that covers both materials and our labor for 25–50 years.

What’s not covered (by anyone): storm damage, foot-traffic damage, modifications by other contractors, and acts of God. Those are insurance events — file with your homeowner’s policy, and we’ll handle the repair to insurance specifications.
