Roofing Warranties

Factory-backed protection from a dual-certified Northern Ohio roofer

A new roof is one of the biggest investments you’ll make in your home. The right manufacturer-backed warranty—tied to a properly installed roofing system—helps protect that investment if a covered manufacturing or installation issue shows up later.

North Coast Roofing of Ohio has served Sandusky, Fremont, and surrounding communities since 2005. Dual GAF Master Elite® and CertainTeed Select ShingleMaster™ credentials make enhanced factory warranties like GAF Golden Pledge® and CertainTeed 5-Star / SureStart PLUS available on qualifying full roof replacements.

Program names and terms can change. This page is a plain-English overview—not a substitute for your warranty certificate or the manufacturer’s legal terms.

Warranty FAQ

What warranties can I get with North Coast Roofing?

Qualifying full replacements can include manufacturer-backed warranties such as GAF Golden Pledge® and CertainTeed 5-Star / SureStart PLUS, depending on the system installed. (Source: NCR FAQ.)

Why do dual certifications matter?

Enhanced factory warranties like Golden Pledge and top-tier CertainTeed SureStart PLUS options are tied to manufacturer credential programs. NCR holds both GAF Master Elite® and CertainTeed Select ShingleMaster™.

Is every full roof replacement covered the same way?

Coverage depends on whether the installed system qualifies for an enhanced manufacturer program and is properly registered. We’ll spell out the warranty path on your proposal.

Do warranties transfer if I sell my home?

Our CertainTeed warranty page describes 5-Star / SureStart PLUS coverage as transferable to future homeowners, subject to CertainTeed’s rules. GAF also publishes transfer procedures for its limited warranties. Call us and we’ll help you navigate the manufacturer process for your documents.

Do repairs or metal roofs get Golden Pledge / 5-Star?

Enhanced Golden Pledge and 5-Star programs apply to qualifying full GAF or CertainTeed system replacements, not as a blanket for every service. Ask us what warranty applies to repairs, coatings, metal, or other products.
