Do You Need Roofing Materials That Come With a Warranty?

A warranty is a written guarantee from the manufacturer that says the manufacturer will repair or replace your roofing products within a certain period of time. While your GAF roof is likely to perform exceptionally well over its entire lifetime, it never hurts to get an added layer of protection, which can save you substantial amounts of money over time.
