About This Partner

Who Is GAF?

GAF has been manufacturing roofing products for over 130 years and is the largest roofing manufacturer in North America. Their Timberline shingle line is the best-selling shingle brand on the continent, and their products are engineered as complete systems — shingles, underlayment, starter strips, ridge caps, and ventilation designed to work together.

For homeowners, the name matters for one practical reason: warranty strength. When a full GAF system is installed correctly, the manufacturer stands behind it — which means your roof is protected by a company that will still be around decades from now.

On Your Project

How We Use GAF

Timberline HDZ Shingles

Our go-to GAF shingle for full replacements — LayerLock technology, wide nailing zone, and strong wind ratings for Ohio storm seasons.

Complete System Installs

We pair GAF shingles with matched underlayment, starter, ridge cap, and ventilation so warranty coverage stays intact — no mixed-brand shortcuts.

Storm & Insurance Work

GAF spec sheets and product documentation slot directly into our insurance claim packages, making scope and pricing easy for adjusters to verify.

Color & Style Selection

From Charcoal to Weathered Wood, we bring GAF sample boards to your estimate so you pick from real shingles, not a screen.
