      Bought the CertainTeed Presidential Roof. It came with a warranty of 50 years. It didn't even last 20 years and the ridge caps have blown away. I have had 2 roofing contractor out and both of them are in agreement that it was installed properly. I have sent and filled out all the warranty information to Certified. But for months we have been getting the run around. My husband and I are in our late 70's and we go over to the neighbors yard to retrieve our ridge caps from their yards. Anything you could do would be greatly appreciated.

      Dear *** *******, 

      CertainTeed LLC has received your correspondence dated November 2, 2022 and we have reviewed ******* *******'s file. 

      CertainTeed was contacted on July 11, 2018 regarding a shingle issue at the above-referenced property. CertainTeed promptly sent a warranty claim kit to the homeowner, which requests that shingle samples, photographs and a completed evaluation form be submitted to our lab. We received the requested samples and information in our lab on July 18, 2018. 

      An evaluation of the warranty claim was completed on July 19, 2018 and a determination was made to reject the claim per the terms of the Asphalt Shingles Limited Wind Warranty (5 years), which was in effect when the shingles were installed. A rejection letter was sent to the homeowner with a copy of the warranty. 

      I have enclosed a copy of the limited warranty for the specific product and year the shingles were applied for your review. 

      If I can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me. 

      Sincerely, 
      Bob M***** 
      Technical Service Representative
