A well-built roofing system protects your home against outdoor elements while maintaining indoor comfort and stability. Regular repairs and maintenance are necessary to keep it in good condition, but when the time comes for a complete replacement, it can be a huge undertaking to do on your own. Extensive roof repairs may sometimes suffice, but they won’t get you far in terms of visual appearance and performance. The costs can slowly mount once you pay for repairs more frequently, so you’re better off choosing the more cost-effective option of getting a new roof.
Delaying your roof replacement is never ideal even if your roof looks mostly intact. This is because there’s a chance that it sustained hidden damage that can affect the rest of your home. And if you’re planning a complete roof replacement, you shouldn’t go for cheaper materials and services because, in the end, you get what you pay for. After all, you wouldn’t want to invest in subpar quality and workmanship for your new roof.
The Best Roofing System for Your Home
Even if you decide on a high-quality material for your residential roofing installation, it won’t be worth the investment if the contractor you hired doesn’t have the experience to install it properly. A well-built roof performs as intended so you won’t end up with premature repairs. Don’t count on any other roofer for the job as it can backfire during or after the roof replacement. So, if you’re wondering what you should get for your new roof, the answer’s pretty simple.
GAF is one of the biggest roofing manufacturers in the industry. The company is well-known for its world-class products and services as they’re purely driven by sheer focus and commitment. Only trained and certified contractors can install GAF products efficiently and professionally. Their skills and experience are worth the investment as you get a roofing system that boasts superior quality and reliability.
If you’re still hesitant about investing in a GAF residential roofing system, here are a few reasons why they’re a cut above the rest:
- Higher Resale Value
Investing in a proper GAF roofing system can easily turn heads and enhance your home’s visual appeal. At the same time, the system’s incredible resilience against the weather elements also attracts potential homebuyers who want a move-in ready home. Many are aware of how GAF products are widely recognized across the country and many more are interested in purchasing a house if it uses their roofing materials. They can also be sure of its workmanship and longevity as long as it’s installed by a GAF Master Elite® Certified Contractor like Northeast Gutters and Remodeling.
- Reliable Warranty Options
GAF comes highly recommended by professional roofing companies. Their roofing products offer multiple levels of protection that other brands won’t provide. You even get robust warranty options, which can be any one of the following:
- GAF Shingle & Accessory Limited Warranty
This applies to any shingle and accessory product installed on a free-standing single-family detached home. It’s one of the most basic warranty plans GAF offers for its shingles and other roof accessories. They come with a 10-year Smart Choice® Protection Period, which is the main roofing warranty along with 10 to 25 years of algae coverage depending on the product. The plan also comes with a 15-year wind warranty that covers a maximum wind speed of 130 miles per hour (mph). - GAF System Plus® Limited Warranty
Your new GAF roof is eligible for this warranty plan if it uses qualifying GAF shingles and at least three accessory products. You get a lifetime warranty term for GAF shingles with a 50-year Smart Choice Protection Period. It also comes with 10 to 25 years of algae warranty and a 15-year wind warranty. You’re also covered for roofing tear-off costs!
- GAF Golden Pledge® Limited Warranty
This premium warranty plan has the same eligibility requirements as the System Plus warranty, but with a few additions. You’re not only covered with the roof tear-off cost but also for its disposal. It also comes with a 25-year workmanship coverage, but it can be upgraded to 30 years if you pick a specific shingle product line from GAF! -
Unmatched Durability and Reliability
Compared to other brands, you’ll get much better weather protection with a GAF roof. Through our different layers of roofing products, you gain reliable weather protection as well as fire and high-speed wind resistance. And as it easily holds off against different elements, it gets adequate ventilation in your attic so you won’t have to worry about moisture buildup and mold growth. GAF’s StainGuard Plus™ even protects your shingles against algae that may otherwise grow on the roof’s surface and cause damage.
Wide Variety of Color and Style Options
As one of the biggest manufacturers in the roofing industry, GAF produces many kinds of shingles that cater to different home styles. With the extensive selection of architectural, designer, and specialty shingles along with a diverse color palette, it won’t be difficult to find the right shingle product that matches your visual and performance requirements.
If you’re interested in GAF’s products, we recommend checking out Timberline® shingles. As one of the brand’s most recognizable products, they’re not limited to the usual brown and earthy colors as they come in different color palettes that cater to any residential exterior. Some of the most popular include slate, hickory, missionary brown, and even weathered wood! The colors of our roofing shingles also won’t fade easily thanks to GAF’s proprietary Color Lock™ firing technology. This ensures you have a long-lasting color scheme that suits your home exterior.
