Welcome to Thomas Ford Roofing Company
Roofing Specialist In Modesto, California
What is a 2 year Certification?
While we cannot predict with certainty how long the roof
covering will remain in serviceable condition, this roof
covering should remain in serviceable condition for a
minimum period of two (2) years.  This warranty is not an
insurance policy and therefore does not include any
pest/fungus/dry rot conditions or roof leaks that may exist
but were not revealed at the time of the original repair.  This
is a visual inspection of the roof cover only.  We have not
undertaken to remove roofing material and/or conduct an
inspection of inaccessible areas of the roof, including inside
the eaves or by the interior areas.  Should you desire such
an inspection, this service is more extensive and must be by
separate contract.  Cosmetic or ‘curb appeal’ items were not
addressed and are not included in this certification/warranty.
It was a visual inspection of the roof surface only, and the
roofing material was not removed to examine the
underlayment or nailing unless specified below.  The interior
of the house, including the attic was not inspected, and this
inspection does not cover the structure, electrical, plumbing,
or gutters.

Please note that this inspection report is not a guarantee
that the existing roof is free of defects.  The sole purpose of
this report is to determine the expected service life of the
roof under typical weather conditions with proper
maintenance.

We assume no liability for roof leaks that have not been
disclosed to us or reported to us at the time of our
inspection.

After these repairs have been completed, this roof should
meet the minimum two year life expectancy requirement,
which is the expected standard.

Please not that this inspection is not a guarantee against
leakage, but an opinion on the serviceable life of the roof.  
Our company assumes no liability for any damages resulting
from leakage.  This roof should be periodically inspected,
repairs made when needed, and kept clean of debris.  This
would be considered normal homeowner maintenance.

This Inspection and report are not an appraisal of the
property or a recommendation to purchase or not to
purchase the property.  Our company assumes no liability for
actions taken or not taken resulting from the opinions
expressed in this report.

The sole purpose of this inspection was to determine the
remaining life expectancy of the roof material.  Due to the
multitude of manufacturer’s, this report does not guarantee
that the roofing materials were installed according to the
manufacturer’s instructions unless the instructions were
provided at the inspection site.



Warranty:

 This roof covering will be warranted for a period of TWO
years from the completion date of the above-described
repairs.  Contractor agrees to repair any leaks, which occur
within a period of two (2) years.  Except those caused by
deliberate abuse, neglect, severe weather and other
unforeseen problems (previous leaks not disclosed by
others at time of inspection)  Leakage caused by excessive
foot traffic on the roof cover, debris build up, building
additions, natural disasters, application of surface roof
treatments, wind damage, mold of any kind, pressure
washing, Instillation of exterior decorations, and / or sports
equipment, installation of television antennas and / or
satellite dishes, new or existing skylights and frames, solar
panels, alarm systems, air conditioning units and / or other
types of heating / cooling units are not covered by this
warranty.

Damage to interior spaces due to roof leaks undiscovered
/ undisclosed at time of this inspection, due to the limitation
of a visual inspection only, are not covered under this
warranty.  Intentional disturbing of the roof cover will void
this warranty.  In addition, it does not apply to patio covers,
chimney, or separate fixtures attached to the home unless
otherwise specified but only those livable areas specifically
covered by the roof are included in this warranty.  
Moss/growth/mold  is not covered under this warranty.  
There is not a guaranty against future leaks but certification
states that the roof should remain in serviceable condition
for the stated time period.

Care and Maintenance:

 Maintenance is required on all roofs by the homeowner to
prevent leaks and damage to the roof system.  This
maintenance should include but is not limited to, the
trimming of trees back off the roof, cleaning of debris from
the gutters, chimney area, valley and flashings, and keeping
foot traffic on the roof to a minimum to name a few.  Each roof
system will vary determined by the materials used and the
different surroundings.  Exposure to the sun is a major factor
in the deterioration of a roof.
