Why do manufacturer certifications matter?
“Certifications unlock extended manufacturer warranty registration that uncertified contractors cannot offer. Example: CertainTeed Landmark Pro installed by a ShingleMaster carries SureStart Plus 50-year warranty; installed by an uncertified contractor carries the standard Landmark Pro warranty only. The product is identical; the warranty tier is different. We've written up what a CertainTeed ShingleMaster certification actually means in more detail.”
View in the company profileIs Modex GAF Master Elite?
“No. Modex installs GAF shingles but is NOT GAF Master Elite. The GAF System Plus warranty requires Master Elite contractor installation. We recommend CertainTeed (ShingleMaster) when extended warranty tier matters most.”
View in the company profileIs Modex ProVia, Kolbe, Pella, or DaVinci Authorized?
“No. Modex installs all four brands but is not an Authorized dealer for any of them. Product warranty registers direct from the manufacturer to the homeowner regardless of installer certification.”
