GAF CERTIFIED INSTALLATION
GAF roofs built for Central Texas storms
GAF is North America's largest shingle manufacturer, and their Timberline HDZ is the most installed architectural shingle in the country. We install it to GAF factory spec with full system components, so your warranty is valid and your roof holds up to the hail and wind that rolls through Austin every spring.

Timberline HDZ architectural shingles
The HDZ is GAF's top-selling shingle for a reason. The StrikeZone nailing area is wider than legacy shingles, so installers hit the right spot every time. Combined with the WindTec sealant strip, the HDZ carries a 130 mph wind rating when installed with the full GAF system, the highest in the architectural class.
GAF system warranty
A shingle warranty only holds if every component on the roof is GAF and the installer is certified. We install GAF starter strip, ridge cap, underlayment, and attic ventilation as a matched system. When we do, you qualify for the Golden Pledge warranty, which covers workmanship for 25 years and materials for up to 50. That is the strongest warranty GAF offers, and most contractors cannot provide it.
Impact resistance and Texas hail
GAF offers impact-rated shingle options that can earn you a discount on your homeowners insurance in Texas. After a hail storm, GAF shingles with StainGuard Plus resist the blue-green algae that turns Austin roofs streaky under our humidity. We document the impact rating on your final paperwork so your insurer has what they need.
Color and curb appeal
Timberline HDZ comes in dozens of colors, from Charcoal to Hickory to Shakewood. We bring physical samples to your inspection so you can see how the color reads in Texas sun, not on a screen. The right color affects your attic temperature and your resale value.

Financing options
Managing the cost of your roofing project
A roof or exterior replacement is a real investment. We make sure the payment side is not the thing that keeps you up at night.
Flexible monthly plans
Spread the cost of your project across manageable monthly payments instead of paying it all at once. We work with financing partners who understand that a roof or siding job is not a planned expense, it is usually an urgent one. Plans range from short-term payoff to longer terms that keep your monthly number low.
Don't wait for an insurance check
If your adjuster is still reviewing the claim or the payout is weeks out, financing lets us get the work started now. You stop the leak, secure the property, and pay the balance down once your insurance funds arrive. No tarp on your roof for a month waiting on paperwork.
Simple, upfront terms
Your estimator walks you through the financing application during the inspection, right at your kitchen table. No obligation, no hard credit pull until you decide to move forward. You see the rate, the term, and the monthly payment before you sign anything.
Works with insurance deductibles
Many homeowners use financing to cover their deductible portion of a storm claim, so the job does not stall on out-of-pocket cost. We coordinate the scope, the claim, and the financing so you understand exactly what insurance covers and what your plan handles.
Questions
GAF Shingles FAQ
What does GAF certified mean?
GAF certifies contractors who meet their installation standards, carry proper insurance, and use full GAF system components. Certification is what unlocks the extended warranties, including Golden Pledge. If a contractor is not certified, you do not get the full warranty even if they install GAF shingles.
How long does a GAF roof last in Austin?
A properly installed GAF Timberline HDZ roof in Austin will last 25 to 30 years under normal conditions. Hail damage can shorten that, but impact-rated GAF shingles hold up better and may qualify you for an insurance discount.
Is GAF better than Owens Corning?
Both are excellent manufacturers. GAF has the larger market share and the Golden Pledge warranty. Owens Corning's SureNail strip is a strong advantage in high-wind areas. We install both and help you choose based on your budget, your warranty goals, and what your insurance adjuster prefers to see.
Do you handle the GAF warranty registration?
Yes. We register your roof with GAF after the final inspection and provide you with the warranty documentation. You do not have to deal with the manufacturer paperwork yourself.
