Warranty FAQ

What does "Limited Lifetime" actually mean?
A "Limited Lifetime" warranty means the warranty lasts for the life of the original homeowner on their property — but it is "limited" in what it covers and how. Coverage is typically non-prorated for a set number of years, then prorates over time. The warranty covers manufacturing defects in the shingles, not storm damage, improper installation, or normal wear. Always read the full warranty document — Ranlock will give you a copy for your project.
Does poor installation void the manufacturer warranty?
Yes — this is one of the most important reasons to choose a quality, experienced installer. Improper nail placement, wrong fastener type, incorrect overlap, inadequate ventilation, or missing system components can all void or significantly limit manufacturer warranty coverage. Ranlock installs to manufacturer specifications to ensure your warranty remains fully valid.
Can I transfer the warranty if I sell my home?
Owens Corning warranties are generally transferable to a subsequent homeowner, typically for a limited period (often 30–50 years from installation) with some reduction in coverage terms. Specific transferability rules depend on the product and warranty tier. This can be a meaningful selling point if you're ever listing your home. Ask Ranlock for the specific transfer terms on your product at project completion.
Does the warranty cover storm damage?
No — manufacturer warranties cover defects in materials, not damage caused by storms, hail, or acts of nature. That type of damage is covered by your homeowner's insurance policy, not the roofing warranty. If you've experienced storm damage, contact Ranlock for a free inspection and we'll help document the damage for your insurance claim.
Do I need to register my warranty?
For some Owens Corning warranty tiers, registration may be required to activate the full coverage period. Ranlock will advise you on registration requirements for your specific product and can assist you with the process. We'll also provide you with all documentation needed to make a future warranty claim.
