Video: 4 Key Things to Consider When Getting a New Roof

Many people replace their roofs only once or twice in their lifetime. Roof replacement is a significant investment that can affect your home’s energy efficiency, comfort, and durability. A significant decision like this requires careful deliberation. You need to consider your choice of shingles, roofing system, warranty, and the contractor you work with.

• Roofing System – As an expert roofing company, we recommend installing an integrated roofing system, like our GAF® Lifetime Roofing System for your home. By installing products from a single manufacturer, you can rest easy knowing that all parts of the system complement each other. It also makes things such as warranty concerns and repairs simple.

• Warranty – Your roof protects one of your most valuable investments: your home. That’s why your roofing system needs to stay in top condition at all times. The right kind of warranty can protect you from unnecessary costs. As a GAF Master Elite™ contractor, we can provide you with one of the strongest warranties in the industry: the Golden Pledge®. This warranty covers both workmanship and product defects. It even includes a 40-point factory inspection.

• Shingles – Your choice of shingles depends on your budget, needs, and your home. As a certified GAF roofing contractor, we can provide the brand’s entire product line. This means you can easily find the right shingle for your particular situation. If you want more energy efficiency we can install their Timberline® Cool Series® shingles. If you want to mimic the appearance of slate, we can install their Camelot® designer roofing shingles.

• Roofing Contractor – Choosing your contractor is one of the most important decisions you can make for your new roof. A faulty installation can compromise even the best roofing systems. You need to work with a local company with a proven reputation. A local company understands your region’s specific weather and considers that during installation. A company with a proven reputation has the experience and skills necessary for a perfect installation.
