What It Means for You

The Homeowner Advantage

Hiring a GAF Certified installer isn't just a marketing claim — it unlocks real, tangible protections that are contractually unavailable through uncertified contractors.

System Plus Limited Warranty

Only available through a GAF Certified installer. Covers both labor and materials for 25 years on a non-prorated basis — meaning full coverage from day one through year 25, not a depreciated payout.

Verified Workmanship

When you hire a GAF Certified contractor, GAF has already vetted their installation quality. You're not just trusting a salesperson — you're trusting a manufacturer-backed standard.

Full Roofing System Coverage

The System Plus Warranty covers the entire roofing system — shingles, underlayment, leak barriers, and ventilation — not just the shingles alone. That's the difference a certified install makes.

Transferable to New Owners

The System Plus warranty is fully transferable if you sell your home, adding tangible, documented value to your property and giving buyers confidence in what's over their heads.

Infinite Wind Warranty

Qualifying GAF systems installed by a Certified contractor include GAF's Infinite Wind Warranty — no wind speed limit — critical protection for the Gulf Coast storm season in Brazoria County.

StainGuard Plus™ Algae Protection

Certified installs with qualifying shingles include up to 25 years of algae resistance coverage — keeping your roof looking clean in our humid Texas climate.

Exclusive Warranty

The System Plus Limited Warranty

This warranty cannot be purchased. It cannot be offered by an uncertified contractor. It is only available when your roof is installed by a GAF Certified installer — like Birdie Roofing.

Workmanship Coverage

25 Years

Non-prorated. Full value from day one through year 25 — no depreciation, no fine print payout reduction.

Material Coverage

Lifetime

Lifetime limited warranty on qualifying GAF shingles against manufacturing defects — for as long as you own the home.

Transferability

100%

The System Plus warranty transfers to new owners when you sell — a documented asset that adds measurable home value.

Certification Requirements

What GAF Requires to Certify a Contractor

GAF's certification isn't self-declared. It's earned through a vetting process that covers credentials, experience, workmanship standards, and ongoing performance — every year.

Licensed & Fully Insured

GAF requires every certified contractor to carry a minimum of $1 million in liability insurance, plus proper licensing in all states where they operate — protecting you, your home, and the job site.

Verified Experience & Reviews

GAF reviews years of roofing experience and verified customer reviews before granting certification. Not just anyone qualifies.

Manufacturer Training

Certified installers complete GAF-sanctioned product training to ensure every shingle and system component is installed to exact specifications.

Ongoing Compliance

Certification isn't a one-time badge. GAF conducts ongoing evaluation of performance, workmanship standards, and customer satisfaction to maintain active status.

GAF System Product Use

Certified contractors must use GAF-approved roofing system components — ensuring your entire roof system works together as designed and warranted.

Local Market Standing

GAF evaluates a contractor's standing in their local market, including reputation, community presence, and consistency of quality across projects.
