Roofing systems
Engineered as a system, not a stack of parts.
A GAF roof is a complete assembly — deck protection, leak barriers, starter, field shingles, ridge cap and ventilation, each built to work with the next. That is what makes the strongest warranties in the category possible.
Timberline® UHDZ™
GAF's most dimensional laminated shingle, finished with the Dual Shadow Line for depth you can read from the curb.
- Dual Shadow Line
- LayerLock® Technology
Designer Collection
Slate, shake and wood profiles for homes where the roof is the architecture — without the weight or the upkeep.
- Camelot® · Slateline®
- Grand Canyon® · Grand Sequoia® · Woodland®
Timberline Solar™
Solar built into the roof itself — nailed down like a shingle, generating power without racks or panels sitting on top.
- Integrated energy shingle
- Installed by Master Elite® contractors
TimberSteel™
A complete premium metal roofing system — field shingles, hip & ridge cap, drip edge, rake flashing and ridge vents.
- ArmorPledge™ limited warranty

Commercial & Waterproofing
Low-slope roofing and waterproofing assemblies for buildings that cannot afford a leak, backed by GAF's commercial support line.
- Contractor & technical support: 877-423-7663
Pavement Coatings
The same protective-coatings expertise that began with waterproof paints in 1886, applied at ground level.
- Manufactured in the U.S.
Every roof is quoted, not priced off a shelf. Pitch, deck condition, tear-off, ventilation and the system you choose all move the number — so we scope it properly and put it in writing.
