Central California’s Roofing Experts

What is a 2 year Certification?

While we cannot predict with certainty how long the roof covering will remain in serviceable condition, this roof covering should remain in serviceable condition for a minimum period of two (2) years. This warranty is not an insurance policy and therefore does not include any pest/fungus/dry rot conditions or roof leaks that may exist but was not revealed at the time of the original repair. This is a visual inspection of the roof cover only. We have not undertaken to remove roofing material and/or conduct an inspection of inaccessible areas of the roof, including inside the eaves or by the interior areas. Should you desire such an inspection, this service is more extensive and must be by separate contract. Cosmetic or ‘curb appeal’ items were not addressed and are not included in this certification/warranty. It was a visual inspection of the roof surface only, and the roofing material was not removed to examine the underlayment or nailing unless specified below. The interior of the house, including the attic was not inspected, and this inspection does not cover the structure, electrical, plumbing, or gutters.

Please note that this inspection report is not a guarantee that the existing roof is free of defects. The sole purpose of this report is to determine the expected service life of the roof under typical weather conditions with proper maintenance.

We assume no liability for roof leaks that have not been disclosed to us or reported to us at the time of our inspection.

After these repairs have been completed, this roof should meet the minimum two year life expectancy requirement, which is the expected standard

Please not that this inspection is not a guarantee against leakage, but an opinion on the serviceable life of the roof. Our company assumes no liability for any damages resulting from leakage. This roof should be periodically inspected, repairs made when needed, and kept clean of debris. This would be considered normal homeowner maintenance.

This Inspection and report are not an appraisal of the property or a recommendation to purchase or not to purchase the property. Our company assumes no liability for actions taken or not taken resulting from the opinions expressed in this report.

The sole purpose of this inspection was to determine the remaining life expectancy of the roof material. Due to the multitude of manufacturer’s, this report does not guarantee that the roofing materials were installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions unless the instructions were provided at the inspection site.

Warranty :

This roof covering will be warranted for a period of TWO years from the completion date of the above-described repairs. The contractor agrees to repair any leaks, which occur within a period of two (2) years. Except those caused by deliberate abuse, neglect, severe weather, and other unforeseen problems (previous leaks not disclosed by others at the time of inspection) Leakage caused by excessive foot traffic on the roof cover, debris build-up, building additions, natural disasters, application of surface roof treatments, wind damage, mold of any kind, pressure washing, Instillation of exterior decorations, and/or sports equipment, installation of television antennas and/or satellite dishes, new or existing skylights and frames, solar panels, alarm systems, air conditioning units and/or other types of heating/cooling units are not covered by this warranty.

Damage to interior spaces due to roof leaks undiscovered/undisclosed at the time of this inspection, due to the limitation of a visual inspection only, are not covered under this warranty. Intentional disturbing of the roof cover will void this warranty. In addition, it does not apply to patio covers, chimney, or separate fixtures attached to the home unless otherwise specified but only those livable areas specifically covered by the roof are included in this warranty. Moss/growth/mold is not covered under this warranty. There is not a guaranty against future leaks but certification states that the roof should remain in serviceable condition for the stated time period.

Care and Maintenance

Maintenance is required on all roofs by the homeowner to prevent leaks and damage to the roof system. This maintenance should include but is not limited to, the trimming of trees back off the roof, cleaning of debris from the gutters, chimney area, valley and flashings, and keeping foot traffic on the roof to a minimum to name a few. Each roof system will vary determined by the materials used and the different surroundings. Exposure to the sun is a major factor in the deterioration of a roof.
