RV Roof Warranty Explained for Florida Owners
A lifetime RV roof warranty can mean very different things from shop to shop. It may cover only materials and not labor, last only while you own the rig, or exclude storm damage. Before you buy any roof, get the terms in writing and ask the questions below. Total Rig spray-on roofs carry a lifetime warranty that transfers to new owners.
What a warranty usually covers
- Failure of the coating or membrane from defects in materials or workmanship
- Sometimes labor to repair the failure
- Sometimes only a replacement of materials
What is often excluded
- Storm, hail and impact damage (usually an insurance matter)
- Damage from neglect or standing debris
- Damage from other repairs or modifications
- Wear on roof items such as vents and skylights
Questions to ask any shop
- Whose lifetime is it: the roof, the rig or the owner?
- Does it transfer if I sell the RV?
- Does it cover labor, or only materials?
- What voids it?
- How do I file a claim and who answers?
- Who honors it if the shop closes?
