According to the 2017 BUILDER Brand Use Study, GAF is still the king of the roofing world. Hailed as the most used brand and earning the highest quality rating in the asphalt/fiberglass shingle category, GAF retains its status as the industry leader.
Why should you care about the survey’s results? Universal Roofing and Exteriors explains what it means for you:
It Delivers High Quality
Ranking first in the quality department (again) supports GAF’s claim of being home to the toughest asphalt roofing shingles on the market. Using its Advanced Protection® Technology, GAF is the first manufacturer to have all of its shingles pass the industry’s most rigorous wind resistance tests.
Furthermore, the brand’s products meet the requirements of AC438, which is the first set of tests that optimizes advanced science to determine long-term shingle performance. Performed under controlled laboratory conditions, GAF shingles withstand exposure to the sun, stand up to heavy downpour, and endure extreme temperatures.
It Remains The Most Trusted
The survey reveals that GAF is still the darling of discerning residential roofing contractors. Other than being the source of Timberline® Shingle Series (North America’s best-selling shingles), most roofers laud the complete package the brand brings to the table.
By and large, contractors consider GAF’s Master Elite™ designation as the most prestigious title one could have. The brand also offers Golden Pledge® Ltd. Warranty, one of the strongest roofing guarantees that exist today. Best of all, GAF advocates shingle recycling and champions sustainability for the benefit of everyone.
It Promises Great Home Value
The BUILDER Brand Use Study echoes the pulse of the market. This is why investing in a GAF asphalt shingles roofing system gives plenty of bang for your buck. Most homeowners approve of its asphalt shingle products, so choosing any of them would increase your home’s value a lot. Since all of its warranties are transferable, GAF gives you leverage at the negotiating table if you later sell your home.
