Do Roof Warranties Actually Protect Homeowners?

Our Workmanship Guarantee
At Dolan Roofing & Construction, our workmanship warranty is more than a guarantee; it’s a commitment to our homeowners. While the industry average workmanship warranty is one to two years, we offer a 5-year warranty. We believe in treating every customer like a member of our own family, and that means keeping our promises.
Workmanship warranties are designed to address mistakes made during installation, which can include improperly installed flashing, underlayment, or other components that could lead to leaks or long-term damage. By offering this coverage, we ensure homeowners don’t have to worry about these types of issues and that repairs or corrections will be handled professionally and efficiently.
The value of a workmanship guarantee extends beyond protection. It reflects our philosophy of accountability. Dolan Roofing & Construction is family-owned and deeply rooted in the San Antonio community, and we understand the importance of trust when it comes to something as critical as a roof.

What's in a Warranty?
A warranty is only as strong as the company behind it. Since many roofing businesses close within their first few years, your coverage could vanish when you need it most. At Dolan Roofing & Construction, our long-standing history in San Antonio means we’ll be here to honor our promises, protecting your home and your wallet from unexpected repairs. If you need roof repair or replacement, our team is ready to spring into action, providing professional service and peace of mind.
Why Roofing Warranties Confuse So Many Homeowners
Roofing paperwork can be a maze of fine print. Here is a simple breakdown of the five factors that usually cause the most confusion:
- Who actually backs the warranty: Is it the contractor, the manufacturer (like Owens Corning®), or both?
- Workmanship vs Materials: Workmanship warranties cover installation errors, while manufacturer warranties cover defects in materials. Certain events, like storm damage or lack of maintenance, may be excluded.
- The “Vanish” Risk: If a small company goes out of business, their 10-year guarantee goes with them. A manufacturer-backed warranty stays active.
- Contractor certifications: Some elite warranties, like Platinum Protection, are only valid if installed by a certified Preferred Contractor.
- Transferability: Homeowners selling their house may find that some warranties don’t transfer to the new owner, limiting long-term protection.
At Dolan Roofing & Construction, our goal is to educate homeowners in San Antonio so they know exactly what protection they have and how it works.

FAQs About Roofing Warranties
Check out these frequently asked questions. Don’t hesitate to contact us if you still need answers.
Yes, Dolan Roofing & Construction offers a 5-year workmanship warranty on all roofs we replace. There may be manufacturer warranties for the roof’s components, depending on the product and certification. Understanding each timeline helps homeowners plan inspections and maintenance.
A manufacturer’s warranty (like those from Owens Corning®) covers defects in the shingles themselves, such as premature fading or cracking. A workmanship warranty covers the labor, ensuring that if a leak occurs due to how the roof was installed. Dolan Roofing & Construction provides both for total protection.
A workmanship warranty protects against installation errors, such as improperly installed flashing, underlayment, or shingles that could lead to leaks. It does not cover storm damage, normal wear, or neglect. Dolan Roofing & Construction will promptly correct any workmanship-related issue during the warranty period.

Common actions that void warranties include improper attic ventilation, installing a new roof over old shingles (nail-over), or having unauthorized repairs performed by non-certified contractors.
