How long is roof workmanship warranty?
I'm about to start getting quotes for a new roof and I'm keen to avoid the cowboys, even if it means I end up paying more. How long should the workmanship warranty be and how should it be backed? What else can I ask when getting quotes?
Expert Trade Answers
"It kind of depends on what the work actually entails.
It’s difficult to say what warranty should be available.
Is it a tiled roof? Flat EPDM RUBBER.
Go with a reputable local company would be my advice. Maybe look on federation of master builders web site or similar. Go to your local merchant they may be able to help you with a few companies so you can compare."
