What Is a Labor Warranty, and Why Does It Matter?

There are two parts to every roof warranty:

1. Material warranty — Covers the shingles and products themselves (usually from the manufacturer)
2. Labor warranty — Covers the installation and workmanship (usually from the contractor)

Most roofing companies in Maryland only offer 1 to 5 years of labor warranty. After that, if something goes wrong due to improper installation — you're on your own.

What Does a Lifetime Labor Warranty Cover?

A true lifetime labor warranty covers:

• Flashing failures
• Improper shingle installation
• Ventilation or ridge cap errors
• Leaks caused by installation — even years later

And most importantly, it gives you peace of mind that your roofer will stand behind the work — not just the materials.

Why Most Contractors Don't Offer It

Let's be honest — a lifetime labor warranty is a big commitment. Most roofing companies avoid offering it because:

• They use subcontractors and can't guarantee quality
• They plan to move on or rebrand
• They know they're cutting corners on install

Offering a strong labor warranty means confidence in your crews and your process. That's why Allied offers it — and others don't.

What Can Void a Roof Warranty?

Even the best warranties can be voided. Common issues include:

• Poor attic ventilation or insulation
• Improper repairs by unlicensed roofers
• Adding solar panels or skylights without notifying the roofer
• Failure to maintain gutters and flashing

That's why we educate every homeowner we work with — so your warranty stays in effect and your roof performs as expected.

Why Allied's Labor Warranty Is Different

At Allied Remodeling, we match the lifetime of the manufacturer's warranty with our own labor warranty. That means:

• If your shingles are warrantied for 30 years, so is our labor
• You deal directly with us — no middlemen or finger pointing
• We track every job, every detail, every customer

We don't take a deposit. We don't walk away. And we don't make excuses.
Your roof is our responsibility — for life.

Peace of Mind That Pays Off

A cheap roof can end up costing more when problems pop up after the labor warranty expires. With Allied's approach, you're not just getting a roof — you're getting protection, service, and a company that's been here for decades and isn't going anywhere.
