A Malarkey Certified Contractor has earned the foundational level of Malarkey Roofing Products' residential contractor program. To reach this level, a contractor is vetted by Malarkey as licensed and insured where required, demonstrates an established roofing business, and is trained on the proper installation of Malarkey products.
This is Malarkey's entry-level certification, the baseline that sits beneath the Emerald Pro and Emerald Premium tiers. It signals that Malarkey has reviewed and approved the contractor to install its products, rather than the contractor simply purchasing Malarkey shingles without any manufacturer relationship.
Even at this level, every Malarkey roof carries Malarkey's standard limited lifetime coverage against manufacturing defects. The enhanced, system-based warranties with longer non-prorated terms and added workmanship protection, however, require the higher Pro and Premium tiers.
For a homeowner, a Malarkey Certified Contractor confirms a manufacturer-recognized, trained installer of Malarkey products. It is a genuine baseline credential, though it is the first rung rather than the top of Malarkey's quality ladder.
