What DeHart's quad-cert stack puts on your roof
Most Stanislaus County homeowners do not realize the warranty they end up with is decided the day they pick a contractor — not the day they pick a shingle. Because DeHart Roofing carries all four top manufacturer certifications, every roof we install can be registered for the strongest factory-backed coverage each brand offers. Here is what that unlocks for you:
- Owens Corning Platinum Preferred → Platinum Protection Limited Warranty. Up to 50 years on materials. Up to 25 years of labor backed by Owens Corning. And no proration in the first 10 years — non-prorated (pays the full replacement cost with no depreciation deducted) coverage, so you are protected for the full amount. DeHart is the only OC Platinum Preferred contractor in Stanislaus County.
- GAF Master Elite & GAF Gold Elite → Golden Pledge Limited Warranty. Up to 50 years on materials and up to 25 years of workmanship coverage backed by GAF, plus a post-installation inspection.
- CertainTeed Select ShingleMaster → SureStart PLUS coverage — an extension of SureStart (CertainTeed's startup warranty that covers the first years of the system at full value) — on a CertainTeed Integrity Roof System (a full set of matched roof components installed together).

The warranty programs DeHart registers, side by side
| Program | Materials | Workmanship / labor | Required certification |
|---|---|---|---|
| OC Platinum Protection | Up to 50 years (no proration in the first 10 years) | Up to 25 years, backed by Owens Corning | Owens Corning Platinum Preferred |
| GAF Golden Pledge | Up to 50 years | Up to 25 years, backed by GAF (with a post-install inspection) | GAF Master Elite |
| CertainTeed Integrity (SureStart PLUS) | Up to 50 years | Up to 25 years, backed by CertainTeed | CertainTeed Select ShingleMaster |
All three top-tier programs land in the same range — roughly 50 years on materials and 25 on labor. The right one usually comes down to which shingle line you prefer. Because DeHart holds all four top certifications, we can register whichever program fits your roof.
How DeHart keeps your warranty valid
A warranty is only as good as the install behind it. The most common reasons coverage gets denied are all install-related — and our crew is built to head off each one on the job here in Stanislaus County:
- Top-tier certified install. We carry all four manufacturer certifications, so the factory honors the coverage we register.
- Ventilation checked and corrected. We verify attic airflow on every replacement so the shingles do not cook from below.
- Full tear-off to the deck. We strip the old roof down to the deck (the wood base under the roof) and inspect it before new material goes on — no layering over an old roof.
- Permits pulled, inspections managed. We handle the proper permit and the city inspections for you.
- Registration done for you. We file your warranty with the manufacturer and hand you the documentation.
That documentation matters most years later — most top-tier programs transfer one time to a buyer if you sell, and we give you exactly what the manufacturer needs to make that transfer.
