Michigan's Best Roof Warranty: The Premier Protection Guarantee
As a Fraser, MI based Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor with over 2,000 roofs installed, Premier Roofing provides Macomb and Oakland County homeowners a three-layer protection plan backed by our own lifetime guarantee and one of the largest manufacturers in the world.
What Warranty Does Premier Roofing Offer?
Premier Roofing (formerly Premier Roofing and Renovations) is one of the few contractors in Michigan to hold Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor status — a distinction earned by fewer than 1% of roofing contractors nationwide. This status allows us to offer Macomb and Oakland County homeowners the Platinum Protection Roofing System Limited Warranty, which covers both materials and workmanship for a lifetime.
Every roof we install comes with three layers of protection:
Lifetime Workmanship Guarantee — If there is ever an installation error on a roof we installed, we will fix it at no cost to you, for as long as you own your home.
No-Leak Roofing Promise — Our No-Leak Promise covers 100% of labor and materials for any leak-related repairs resulting from our installation. This includes protection against Michigan-specific threats like ice dam formation and wind-driven rain from storms with wind speeds up to 130 MPH, per the specifications of the Owens Corning shingles installed.
Owens Corning Platinum Protection Limited Warranty — As a Platinum Preferred Contractor, we provide the highest tier of manufacturer-backed warranty available. This covers all Owens Corning products and system components — not just the shingles — for a lifetime, with a 50-year non-prorated TruPROtection period.

Your Warranty Questions, Answered
Does a new roof from Premier Roofing come with a warranty?
Yes. Every roof installed by Premier Roofing in Macomb and Oakland County includes three layers of protection: our Lifetime Workmanship Guarantee, our No-Leak Promise, and the manufacturer-backed Owens Corning Platinum Protection Limited Warranty. Your warranty documentation will be provided at the time of project completion.
What is the benefit of an Owens Corning Platinum Protection Warranty?
The Platinum Protection Warranty is the highest tier of coverage Owens Corning offers, and it is only available through a Platinum Preferred Contractor. The most important benefit is that the workmanship coverage is backed by Owens Corning itself — not just by us. If a standard roofer goes out of business, their workmanship warranty disappears with them. Because we are Platinum Preferred, Owens Corning would still stand behind the labor on your roof even if Premier Roofing were no longer in business. This warranty also covers all “non-shingle” system components — including vents, starters, and ridge caps — ensuring the entire roofing system is protected as one unit.
Does my roof warranty cover wind and storm damage in Michigan?
Yes. The Owens Corning Platinum Protection Warranty includes wind resistance coverage up to 130 MPH for Duration series shingles when installed with a 6-nail application. Michigan homeowners are particularly vulnerable to wind-driven rain, ice dams, and freeze-thaw cycles. For damage caused by a named storm event, your homeowner’s insurance policy is typically the primary coverage — we work directly with insurance adjusters to advocate on your behalf in those situations.
Is my roofing warranty transferable if I sell my Michigan home?
Yes. The Owens Corning Platinum Protection Warranty is transferable to the next homeowner. This is a documented, tangible asset that can be disclosed during a home sale and adds real value to your property.
Does my roof warranty require maintenance to stay valid?
Yes. Like most manufacturer warranties, the Owens Corning Platinum Protection Warranty requires that the roof be properly maintained. This means keeping gutters clear, ensuring attic ventilation is not obstructed, and addressing any minor issues before they escalate. Premier Roofing offers annual roof inspection and maintenance services specifically designed to keep your warranty in good standing. Ask us about our maintenance program when you schedule your installation.
What is the TruPROtection Period?
The TruPROtection Period is the non-prorated phase of your Owens Corning warranty — meaning that for the first 50 years, if a covered defect occurs, Owens Corning will cover the full cost of repair or replacement without reducing the payout based on the age of the roof. After the TruPROtection Period, the warranty continues for a lifetime, but the coverage value may be prorated based on the roof’s age. This is a critical distinction between the Platinum tier and lower warranty levels.
What voids my roof warranty?
While every situation is unique, common actions that can void a roof warranty include making unauthorized repairs or alterations, installing satellite dishes or other equipment that penetrates the roof deck, failing to maintain proper attic ventilation, or neglecting routine maintenance like cleaning gutters. We will review all warranty terms with you before your project begins.
Does my warranty cover ice dams specifically?
Yes, damage resulting from ice dams is covered under the Platinum Protection warranty when the roof is installed as a complete Owens Corning system, including their specialized underlayment products designed for Michigan’s climate. This is a key reason we install the full system and not just the shingles.
