The installer is adamant that everything is compliant because the material manufacturer (who has ZERO interest in the installed roof) has issued their material warranty. I have raised several queries that are strongly likely to be detrimental to the longevity of the roof but of course failure of the roof due to any installed detail will fall back to the installer, so why would the manufacturer care? It's like the perfect storm of non-acceptance.

I have the manufacturer warranty for our metal roof and they made it clear it’s just for the material. Even then it’s quite heavily caveated with enough loopholes for them to get out of it based on the quality of the workmanship.  Which is ironic in that they won’t look at the workmanship of an install as it’s outside of their scope right up until there’s a potential materials fault then they will.
