The biggest obstacle to a successful roofing project is choosing the right contractor to do the work. To help make your decision easier, our company has joined an exclusive factory -certification program sponsored by GAF — North America’s largest roofing manufacturer, and a company that’s been in business since 1886.

GAF HAS TAKEN THE WORRY OUT OF CHOOSING A ROOFING CONTRACTOR

sking the right questions is the key to selecting the right contractor. To

become a factory-certified GAF Master Elite® Roofing Contractor, we had to show that we are:

• Required to maintain insurance

• Licensed by the state/province/territory*

• Trained to install GAF products

• With an established history of installing roofs in the local community

Because of GAF’s stringent standards, less than 2% of roofing contractors have qualified as Master Elite® Contractors! Choosing us is your assurance that you’ll be dealing with a quality, reputable, and dependable professional contractor — not some “fly-by-nighter.”

Professional InstallationTo ensure your total satisfaction, our company has been provided with extensive educational materials developed by GAF’s technical experts—allowing us to stay current in the latest roof installation techniques. That’s why GAF has authorized us to offer their enhanced system warranties.

Excellent ProtectionMost people think that a new roof is nothing more than just nailing up some shingles. We know better—so we recommend GAF’s Lifetime Roofing System.** It gives you the best protection against a variety of all-too-common roofing problems, including Lifetime coverage against manufacturing defects.** Plus, each component used in the system has earned the prestigious Good Housekeeping Seal! (U.S. only)

“Worry-Free”And “Hassle-Free” Warranty OptionsBecause of our unique factory-certified status, the roofs we install are eligible for special warranties — all backed by GAF’s financial clout as North America’s largest roofing manufacturer. After all, a warranty is only as good as the manufacturer that stands behind it. With a GAF roof, you know that you will be covered throughout the warranty period—without fail! Ask us which warranty option would be right for your home.

Your Best ChoiceDon’t trust your biggest asset to just any contractor. As a factory-certified Master Elite® Contractor, we’re your best choice.

FACT: 97.55% of Property Owners Would Recommend Their GAF Master Elite® Contractor To Others***

The GAF Lifetime Roofing System has earned the prestigious Good Housekeeping Seal, which means that Good Housekeeping stands behind the products in this system. (Refer to Good Housekeeping Magazine for its consumer protection policy. Applicable in U.S. only.)

*See System Plus and Golden Pledge® Ltd. Warranties for complete coverage and restrictions, along with a complete listing of eligible products.** Master Flow® Exhaust Ventilation can be substituted ONLY if Cobra® Ridge Ventilation cannot be installed due to a structure’s architecture.
