Manufacturer certification matters on Valley Center jobs because it is what makes the material warranty enforceable. Beware the Valley Center quote that expires today; urgency is a sales tactic, not a roofing condition. Two warranties apply on Valley Center the project: the manufacturer's on the material and the installer's on the workmanship. Ask for both.
