Ropa Roofing, a roofing contractor based in Golden, Colorado, that installs TPO roofing among many other types of roofing materials, has announced that they have recently published an article that warns homeowners that doing DIY roofing repairs can void the roof warranty. They want to stress that even if the roof is in a dire condition, it would be better to refrain from working on it and voiding the warranty. Manufacturers of roofing materials only trust certified and well-trained and educated roofers to install their products. Thus, if the one who does the repair is not properly qualified or certified, this will void their lifetime warranty.

It may be a good idea to read the warranty details but there are actually five common ways in which the warranty can be voided. The first way is through improper installation. This is because manufacturers often have very specific instructions on how to install their products, and if these are not followed, the product may not perform as they have promised. Thus, it is advisable not to perform a DIY when it comes to installing such products or choosing a roofer who is not qualified to install them. It would be a good idea to look for a roofer who is properly licensed, insured, and bonded to do the work.

According to the Ropa Roofing blog post, another way to void the roof warranty is to punch holes in the roof, while installing antennas, solar panels, skylights, satellite dishes, or HVAC units. Thus, it is important to work with a certified roofing contractor when installing anything on the roof that may cause roof perforations. The certified roofer will know what to do to ensure that the warranties from their company and the manufacturer will not be compromised.

The third possible way to void the roof warranty is by using a pressure washer on the roof to get rid of grease, debris, or moss buildup. This is because the strong force exerted by the water jet on the roof may severely damage the membrane, structure, or substrate of the roofing material. Roofing materials damaged in this manner will not be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.

Another way to possibly void the warranty is poor attic ventilation. This is because various kinds of roof damage can be caused by improper ventilation. And finally, installing a new roof on top of an old one may also void or shorten the warranty. As always, it is advisable to consult a certified roofer before skipping the dismantling of the old roof before installing the new roof.

For commercial buildings, they offer EPDM flat roofing, PVC roofing, TPO flat roofing, and torch down roofing. They also provide other services, such as gutter installation, window installation, siding repair, hail damage repair, and storm damage claims.

Many Denver homeowners choose asphalt shingles for their roof because it is inexpensive, durable, waterproof, fire-resistant, and offers a classic design. With regards to commercial roofing, one of the fastest-growing commercial flat roofing materials is thermoplastic polyolefin or TPO. TPO is made from rubber and other substances that contribute to its strength. In addition, TPO has a reflective surface that makes the building very energy-efficient.

There is also the torch down roofing for commercial buildings. This makes use of single-ply membranes and is one of the best commercial roofing because of its ability to withstand extreme temperatures and weather. It may also last for several decades.
