The 5-Star Warranty Is A Scam
I purchased their 5-star warranty on a new roof 9 years ago, which covers workmanship issues for 25 years. I got a leak in my roof above my kids' room and filed a claim for it over 2 months ago. I immediately put 2 tarps on my roof to cover the leak and turned off one of the circuits in the room to prevent an electrical fire. The tarps are held on with pavers because correctly applying a tarp with roofing nails would have voided the warranty. Over 2 months, many frustrating phone calls, and unacknowledged emails later, Certainteed is still dragging their feet. I still have the tarps up. I still have the circuit off. Their own inspector came out 2 weeks ago (finally) and verbally confirmed the issue is due to poor workmanship. I've gotten no response since then. They will try to wait you out until you get fed up and pay to fix the issue yourself. Unfortunately, they do seem to be a scam company.
