Carlisle SynTec Roofing Warranty

Carlisle SynTec Systems is the leading commercial single-ply roofing manufacturer in North America and the only company that produces all three major membrane types (EPDM, TPO and PVC) in-house. Their Golden Seal Total System Warranty is one of the most respected in commercial roofing, with coverage terms up to 30 years and optional protection against hail, wind and accidental punctures.

As a Carlisle SynTec Authorized Applicator, Ranch Roofing installs the full range of Carlisle commercial systems and submits every project for Carlisle’s pre-warranty field inspection. We handle the application, the inspection coordination and the registration so your coverage is locked in the day the roof is signed off.

Three Levels of Protection

Carlisle offers three primary warranty levels for commercial roofs. Each level builds on the last, with the Golden Seal Total System Warranty being the most popular choice for owners who want full-assembly coverage.

Tier	Warranty Name	Key Coverage	Contractor Required	Registration
Tier 1	Membrane Material Warranty	Manufacturing defects on the membrane only. Standard terms of 5–20 years; 90-mil EPDM eligible for 40-year non-prorated material coverage.	Not required	Not required
Tier 2	System Warranty	Covers the membrane and Carlisle brand flashings, adhesives and sealants. Available in 5-, 10-, 15- and 20-year terms.	Carlisle Authorized Applicator	Yes
Tier 3*	Golden Seal Total System Warranty (Most Popular)	Edge-to-edge coverage for the full Carlisle assembly (membrane, flashings, adhesives, insulation, cover board, fasteners, plates, edge metal and insulation adhesives) for the full warranty term. Available in 5-, 10-, 15-, 20-, 25- and 30-year terms.	Carlisle Authorized Applicator	Yes

* The Golden Seal Total System Warranty is the tier most commercial owners select. It is available only through Carlisle Authorized Applicators like Ranch Roofing and requires a pre-warranty inspection by a Carlisle field service representative.
