Checked what 30 year shingles means. First, they state that warranty must be registered within 60 days of procurement. Who would think of doing that when buying a new house. Second must be installed in accordance with their process. I wonder if our builder was obligated or documented as doing this. Do not think this will go anywhere but will be discussing with The Villages warranty office.
This info may be of interest of new buyers who happen to think about their roof 20 plus years from now. Just like me 17 years later.

I think the 30 year warranty works like this - if you are 20 years into the 30 years, you would pay for 1/3 of the new shingles, BUT, you would need to pay for the labor to install.
