We’ve mentioned your roofing warranty in previous blogs and alluded to the fact that some gutter guard companies’ products could potentially void a roof warranty. This is because not all rain gutter covers are made the same way or attach to your roofing system in a manufacturer-approved manner. The last thing you want to do is inadvertently cause damage to your roof and simultaneously void your warranty!
Your Roof, Gutters & Gutter Covers
Ideally, your roof, gutters and gutter covers work together seamlessly to help the water run off your roof and into the downspouts, draining far away from your home’s foundation or basement. Gutters are an important part of your roofing system and when they clog, they can’t do their job. When you have quality rain gutter covers, your gutters should never become clogged and the rainwater should run into the gutters and out the downspoutsm while debris continues over the gutter covers to the ground. Debris shouldn’t collect on the gutter covers or at the end of the roofline. In fact, rain gutter covers shouldn’t negatively affect your roof at all.
Roof Warranty
There are two types of warranties you should have received with your new roof: the manufacturer’s warranty and the installation warranty. Let’s focus on the one from the manufacturer that covers the shingles (or other roofing material). Because some gutter guard companies haven’t met with all the major manufacturers to have their product’s installation approved, you can’t be assured that the installation of all products will not void your manufacturer’s warranty. When you choose Gutter Helmet®, you have the assurance that your roof’s warranty will not be impacted as we have approval for our installation and roofing manufacturers know that Gutter Helmet will never negatively impact the roofing material.
