GAF has been a trusted roofing manufacturer for several years. With their innovation and dedication to quality roofing materials, they have earned a reputation in the industry for being a leading manufacturer. It’s no wonder why homeowners and roofing professionals alike prefer and recommend GAF materials.
In this post, Next Level Roofers — one of the area’s most trusted roofing companies — discusses the reasons why its roofing experts use GAF materials for roofing projects.
Why We Choose GAF Roofing
Excellent Warranties
With a GAF roof, you can take advantage of warranties that will protect you for decades. A roof installed by a certified contractor ensures a 50-year coverage on material defects. Moreover, you can get a 25-year workmanship warranty for select materials too. You can have peace of mind that your GAF roof can withstand extreme weather and the test of time.
To make the most of your new roof, hire a GAF Master Elite® Roofing Contractor who can provide high-quality roof replacement services and warranties.
Design Options
GAF has a wide number of roofing styles and colors. Their various lines of architectural, designer and specialty shingles can add to your home’s curb appeal and deliver remarkable performance. Each one of these can suit the classic look of Victorian and New England properties or the sleek, minimalist design of modern homes.
Roofs from GAF are beautiful and suitable for different types of environments. For instance, you can use an algae-resistant roofing system in areas that often experience heavy rain and high humidity. You can find a considerable number of stunning roofs with this feature by asking a GAF roofer or representative to show you their collections.
Increased Home Value
A GAF roof can boost your property’s value because homebuyers know the superb performance and comprehensive protection of this roofing system. That said, you should consider a GAF roof if you have plans of selling your home.
Quality Workmanship
A GAF Master Elite roofer has undergone extensive training that tests their experience and knowledge to achieve the best results for roof replacement jobs.
More Information About GAF Warranties
GAF is well-known for its strong warranties. A 50-year warranty can make a big difference, and GAF offers one of the most comprehensive roofing warranties in the industry. Furthermore, other manufacturers leave the labor warranties for roofers to provide. But with GAF, a 25-year coverage on workmanship is given as long as the roof is installed by a qualified roofer.
A GAF Master Elite roofer gives your home top-tier warranties, such as the GAF System Plus® Limited Warranty or the GAF Golden Pledge® Limited Warranty. Learn more about each of them below.
GAF System Plus® Limited Warranty
Homeowners who choose qualified GAF shingles with three accessory products can have this warranty. For instance, if you had a Timberline® HDZ™ Shingles system installed, you can be eligible for the System Plus Limited Warranty by adding other accessories, such as GAF’s ridge caps, starter shingles, leak barriers, etc. Lastly, a GAF Master Elite roofer must install this system to qualify.
System Plus Limited Warranties have one of the longest coverage in the market. GAF provides a 50-year Smart Choice® protection period for your home plus a 10- to 25-year algae protection warranty. The warranty also has a 15-year coverage on wind damage.
GAF Golden Pledge® Limited Warranty
This is the highest tier of GAF warranties that you can get for your roof. The System Plus Limited Warranty and Golden Pledge Limited Warranty have similar requirements except for the number of additional GAF accessories that should be installed along with the shingles. The Golden Pledge Limited Warranty requires five accessory products so your roof can qualify.
The Golden Pledge Limited Warranty also provides a 50-year Smart Choice coverage, a 15-year wind coverage, a 10- to 25-year algae protection coverage, and a 25-year workmanship warranty. It also includes regular checks by your GAF Master Elite contractor at various periods.

Signs of Poor Roof Installation
All Master Elite roofing companies look into every detail of a project and apply knowledge from training and experience. You can expect them not to commit any of the following mistakes during installation:
Odd Appearance
GAF asphalt shingles go through stringent testing to ensure the best roofing system for your home. Proper roof installation means the shingles have a uniform appearance and do not look odd or uneven from the curb.
Incorrect Shingle Spacing
A certified roofer knows the correct spacing to account for the expansion and contraction of asphalt shingles. Doing so reduces the risk of leaks. If your roof has poorly spaced shingles and doesn’t create a watertight seal, have it redone by a certified roofer.
Correct Nailing
GAF provides quality nails and parts to support its roofing systems effectively. Certified roofers choose the correct nails that dig through the material and the sheathing. Furthermore, they’ll tell you if the sheathing needs replacement to guarantee an optimal installation.
