Warranty comparison: four separate promises
| Coverage | What it addresses | What to compare |
|---|---|---|
| Product defects | Manufacturing issues | Early protection, proration, labor and tear-off |
| Wind | Specified wind-related damage | Limits, duration, accessories and exclusions |
| Algae | Specified discoloration | Product variant, ridge requirements and remedy |
| Workmanship | Qualifying installation errors | Provider, term and contractor credentials |
A limited-lifetime product warranty is not a lifetime guarantee against leaks or storm damage. Enhanced coverage varies by contractor credentials, system components, property type and registration.
Compare early product protection
| Selected product or package | Published early protection |
|---|---|
| GAF System Plus and other qualifying enhanced packages | 50 years non-prorated for eligible single-family owners |
| IKO Dynasty / Nordic | 15-year Iron Clad |
| CertainTeed Landmark PRO | 10-year SureStart |
| Malarkey Highlander / Vista / Legacy | 10 / 15 / 20 years non-prorated |
| Owens Corning Standard / System / Preferred / Platinum | 10 / 50 / 50 / 50 years for single-family coverage |
| Atlas Pinnacle Pristine with Signature Select | 15 years Premium Protection |
| TAMKO Shield / ProShield / MasterShield / DiamondShield | 20 / 50 / 50 / 50 years Full Start for single-family structures |
These are manufacturer-defined periods, not equivalent promises. Enhanced packages have product, installation, registration and sometimes contractor-credential requirements. Read the exact warranty for covered costs, exclusions and what changes afterward.

Compare the quote, not just the shingle
| Include in every proposal | Keep the comparison fair |
|---|---|
| Roof preparation | Removal, decking and disposal |
| Water-management details | Underlayment, starter, flashing and penetrations |
| Finished system | Shingles, ridge and ventilation |
| Coverage and cost | Named warranties, registration and complete installed price |
Local supply, roof complexity and the included work affect price. We compare installed proposals rather than assigning a universal price or ranking every roof by brand alone.
