"There are real
guarantees, also
talk imitations"
Tlicrt arc a lot of Guarantees
offered on r.-ofins. Most of them
are by irrcspt nsiblc people or
merely conversational guarantees.
It's a very important thine in a
guarantee that there should be
responsibility, and that it should
be in writihi;.
Certain-feed
Qu.litr . T) f Dur.klllty
Cert ified XVOOrlllg Guuaa-lMa
Since we have been eivintr a rc2
u!ar written Guarantee on Certain
toed Roofinp;, one class of com
petitors has been saying that their
roofinp; will generally last twenty
years, or longer." They don't
guarantee it, however, at all. It's
very easy to talk, talk, talk and say
any number of years in such talk,
but responsible concerns must
know all about their roofing if they
do any more than talk they must
know their roofings really do last
when they sign a printed guarantee
of plain requirements that the roof
ing shall make good. Of course,
the irresponsible type those who
arc likely to go out of business soon
can sign anything. It's very im
portant that the buyer should not
be caught in such a trifling manner.
Another very Important thinrrJj, these
talk cuarantces are offered on tnecheapeit
goods the manufacturers make notbeinp;
real euarantees, there is no risk. They uy
nothinjr about their highest priced brandi
andmialitiei-justoflerthe cheapest thinjr
they have-olTer a talk guarantee on cheap
(roods equal to the real guarantee given on
Ccrtain-letd Roofing. It's funny how
many people they catch on such things!
When you buy a niece of roofing you
should know and know in writing
that it is the best quality best brand
goods made by tliat manufacturer Re
member make him put this in writing,
that it is his best in'evcry way, and then
have the guarantee in writing and prop
erly signed, too.
It pays to be careful in buying goods
where the quality could not be Judged
by the sample where everything must
depend upon the standing and ability of
the manufacturer to make good over a
long p;riod of years in the future.
Cttlain-tted Roofing is sold at a reason
able price everywhere by dealers who
believe in giving umurpuscd quality at
a fair profit. The amount of Certain'
tted Roofing required for an average
roof, say ten squares, will cost less than
$5 over the cheap mall order grade.
This small initial cost is saved many
times in the fifteen years wear which is
coveted by the manufacturer's guarantee.
