GAF Roofing Warranties: An Overview

There are three common types of roof warranties — the manufacturer’s product warranties, contractor warranties and enhanced manufacturer’s warranties. All three of them grant homeowners the peace of mind that if the product fails unexpectedly, then the cost of repairs or replacement will be reduced or completely covered. In this post, your trusted roofing contractors suggest that enhanced manufacturer’s warranties deliver homeowners the most protection. Today, we’ll delve into GAF roofing warranties. 

Understanding GAF Roofing Warranties

GAF Shingle & Accessory Limited Warranty – GAF shingles and accessories come with a lifetime warranty. This includes a 10-year protection period and 10-year coverage against algae growth. The warranty comes with a wind coverage of 15 years (with a maximum wind speed coverage of up to 130mph) as long as installed according to the manufacturer’s specifications. 

GAF Roofing System Limited Warranty – You must have GAF shingles installed for this protection, along with three qualifying accessory products.
