Certifications & Warranties

Our certifications are not just logos on a website. They determine the warranty protection your roof receives.

Here is something most roofing companies will not tell you: the warranty you get depends on who installs your roof, not just what products are used. A shingle purchased from any supply house comes with a basic manufacturer warranty. But the extended coverage that protects you for 30 to 50 years? That only comes through a contractor who has earned the manufacturer's highest certifications.

Bob Harvey Roofing holds the top-tier credentials from the manufacturers we install. That is not marketing talk. It is the difference between standard coverage and the most comprehensive warranty protection available.

CertainTeed ShingleMaster Premier

CertainTeed ShingleMaster Premier

The Highest Credential CertainTeed Offers

ShingleMaster Premier is CertainTeed's top-tier contractor credential. It replaced what was previously called SELECT ShingleMaster in January 2026, and Bob Harvey Roofing was among the first contractors in Utah to receive this designation. It recognizes companies with the most experienced, best-trained installation teams in the industry.

Earning ShingleMaster Premier is not a matter of paying a fee or signing up for a program. CertainTeed requires that 75% of our shingle installation workforce plus all job supervisors hold individual Master Craftsman certifications. We must also have employees who have passed advanced Shingle Quality Specialist testing, maintain customer satisfaction scores of 4 out of 5 or higher, carry full insurance, pass a Business Fiscal Responsibility exam, and commit to ongoing continuing education. CertainTeed audits these requirements and can revoke the credential at any time.

What does this mean for your warranty? When we install a CertainTeed Integrity Roof System (which includes specific underlayment, starter strips, shingles, ridge caps, and ventilation components from CertainTeed), you become eligible for SureStart PLUS extended warranty protection. This is not available through non-certified contractors, period.

We install CertainTeed's 4-STAR SureStart PLUS as our standard warranty tier. This covers materials, labor, tear-off, and disposal for manufacturing defects for up to 50 years on a single-family home. That means if CertainTeed finds a manufacturing defect 25 or 35 years from now, they cover the full cost of fixing it. No proration, no declining coverage.

For homeowners who want the absolute maximum protection, we also offer the 5-STAR SureStart PLUS upgrade. The 5-STAR adds a 30-year workmanship warranty backed directly by CertainTeed (not by us as the contractor) and extends transferability to 25 years. If something happened to any roofing company, the manufacturer-backed workmanship warranty would still be in force. That is a level of protection very few roofing contractors in Utah can offer.

CertainTeed's standard limited warranty (what you get with any contractor) provides 10 years of SureStart coverage for materials. After year 10, coverage becomes prorated and declines every year. With our 4-STAR coverage, that protection stays at full value for up to 50 years. The difference in long-term value is significant.

A few other things our Premier status unlocks that are worth knowing about: CertainTeed's standard wind warranty covers up to 110 mph. As a Premier contractor, your roof qualifies for an upgraded 130 mph wind warranty for the first 15 years when we install the complete Integrity Roof System with matching starter strips and ridge caps. CertainTeed also sends homeowners a Customer TrackRecord survey after every job to verify customer satisfaction, and they periodically conduct their own roof inspections to confirm our installations meet Integrity Roof System standards. We welcome that accountability.

As a Premier contractor, we also receive $8,000 in SureStart PLUS extended warranty funds annually through CertainTeed's Roofer's Rewards program. That is not a cost we pass on to you. It is part of how CertainTeed invests in their credentialed contractors and ensures warranty registrations stay active.

Duro-Last Certified

Duro-Last Authorized Contractor

Award-Winning Commercial Roofing

Duro-Last is the world's largest manufacturer of custom-fabricated single-ply roofing systems. Bob Harvey Roofing has been an authorized Duro-Last contractor for decades and has been consistently recognized at the Elite and Platinum contractor award levels for installation quality and volume.

Read moreShow less

What makes Duro-Last different from other commercial roofing systems is their approach to quality control. Every membrane is custom-fabricated in a factory to fit your building's exact dimensions, which eliminates up to 85% of the field seams that typically cause leaks. Flashings, stacks, drains, and curb details are all prefabricated under controlled conditions rather than hand-cut on a rooftop.

Here is the part most building owners do not know: every Duro-Last commercial installation is independently inspected by a Duro-Last Quality Assurance Technical Representative before a warranty is issued. That is not our foreman checking our own work. It is a Duro-Last employee who inspects every seam, every flashing, every detail. The installation gets graded, and that grade follows the contractor's record. Duro-Last has over 80 QA Tech Representatives across the country dedicated to this process.

Duro-Last contractor awards are based on installation volume and QA inspection scores. To achieve Elite status, a contractor must install over 150,000 square feet of Duro-Last systems while maintaining high quality grades. Platinum requires 500,000 square feet with an average QA score of 95 or above out of 100. These are not participation trophies.

Duro-Last warranty options include:

Supreme Warranties cover materials, labor, and consequential damage (damage to the building contents caused by a roof failure). Duro-Last was the first manufacturer to offer consequential damage coverage. These are available with the custom-fabricated Duro-Last and Duro-Last X membranes.

Ultra Warranties cover materials and labor with optional high wind and hail coverage. Basic Warranties provide long-term material coverage. Standard options range from 15 to 20 years with No Dollar Limit (NDL) terms, and Duro-Last does not exclude ponding water, something many other manufacturers use as a warranty exclusion.

With 45 years of proven performance since 1978 and over 2 billion square feet of membrane installed across North America, Duro-Last has the track record to back up their warranty promises. Learn more about our commercial roofing services.

Waterproof Vinyl Decking

Bob Harvey Roofing is an authorized dealer and installer of TufDek waterproof vinyl decking systems, a premium solution for protecting decks, balconies, roof decks, and walkways from moisture damage throughout Northern Utah.

TufDek is a heavy-duty, slip-resistant vinyl membrane that creates a completely waterproof surface over plywood or concrete substrates. Unlike traditional wood decking that traps moisture and eventually rots the structure underneath, TufDek membranes shed water while still providing an attractive, comfortable walking surface.

As an authorized TufDek dealer, we install their full line of products and can offer manufacturer-backed warranties on materials when the system is installed according to TufDek specifications. This is especially important for second-story decks and balconies where water intrusion can cause serious structural damage to the living space below.

Common Questions

Real answers to the things homeowners ask us most about roofing warranties.

What does a roofing warranty actually cover?

A manufacturer warranty covers defects in the shingle or membrane itself, things that went wrong during production. It does not cover damage from storms, foot traffic, or improper installation. The warranty coverage you receive depends on which products were installed and whether your contractor holds the manufacturer's certification. With a CertainTeed Integrity Roof System installed by a certified contractor like Bob Harvey Roofing, you can get SureStart PLUS extended protection covering materials, labor, tear-off, and disposal for up to 50 years.

Can my roofing warranty be voided?

Yes. Common reasons include improper installation, inadequate attic ventilation, unauthorized modifications to the roof, and failure to use the manufacturer's complete system of components. This is one of the biggest reasons to hire a certified installer. When Bob Harvey Roofing installs a CertainTeed Integrity Roof System, we follow every specification required to keep your warranty intact.

Is my roof warranty transferable if I sell my home?

CertainTeed warranties are transferable once to the next homeowner. If the transfer happens during the SureStart period, the new owner receives a 50-year warranty. If the transfer happens after the SureStart period, coverage continues for two years from the transfer date. This transferability adds real value to your home when you sell. Duro-Last commercial warranties can also be transferred, though terms vary by warranty level.

What is the difference between a manufacturer warranty and a workmanship warranty?

A manufacturer warranty covers defects in the product itself. A workmanship warranty covers errors in installation. Most roofing companies offer their own workmanship warranty, but that warranty is only as good as the company behind it. If they close, your workmanship coverage disappears. With CertainTeed's 5-STAR SureStart PLUS warranty, the workmanship warranty is backed by CertainTeed for 30 years, not by the contractor. That means even if something happened to our company, your workmanship coverage would remain in place through CertainTeed.

What happens to my warranty if my roofing contractor goes out of business?

If your contractor offered only their own workmanship warranty, that coverage disappears when they close. The manufacturer warranty on the shingles themselves would still apply, but you would only have standard coverage, not the extended protection that comes with a certified installation. This is why choosing a contractor with manufacturer-backed certification matters so much. Bob Harvey Roofing's CertainTeed ShingleMaster Premier status means your SureStart PLUS warranty is backed directly by CertainTeed, regardless of what happens to any individual contractor.

Does Bob Harvey Roofing offer a warranty on repair work?

Yes. We stand behind our repair work. The specific warranty terms depend on the scope of the repair, and we will explain the coverage before any work begins. For repairs covered under your existing manufacturer warranty, there is no additional cost to you.

"In 2018 Bob Harvey Roofing replaced the asphalt roofing of my garage with a metal roof. The metal roof looks beautiful and is serving trouble-free. In 2024, Bob Harvey Roofing tore off the old shingles and reroofed with asphalt shingles on a house of mine. Attention was given to details and unforeseen issues resulting in another reroof well done."
