GAF® Warranty FAQ: What Homeowners Need to Know

You’ll want to have all the bases covered when investing in a roof replacement. Aside from checking its durability, weather protection and aesthetics, you’ll want to take into account the warranty coverage included with your new roofing system, as well. The area’s trusted expert in roof repair services, Superior Construction Co. represents North America’s largest roofing manufacturer, GAF®. The high-quality shingle roofing systems we carry allow for superior, long-lasting performance, plus they come with industry-leading warranties that add an extra layer of protection to your investment.

If you want to learn more about our GAF warranties, we have you covered with this FAQ:

What do GAF warranties cover?

GAF warranties come in tiers and the coverage you receive will depend on these. Standard warranties may cover the shingles and qualifying accessories, plus algae and wind damage. The warranties higher up may provide coverage for all of these, along with tear-off, disposal and workmanship.

How do GAF roofing warranties benefit you?

If you turn to Superior Construction Co. for a GAF Roofing System (defined as GAF Lifetime Shingles, with at least three qualifying accessories) installation, you are automatically entitled to the coverage provided by the GAF Roofing System Limited Warranty. This provides a lifetime warranty on shingles and qualifying accessory products, along with a Smart Choice Protection Period of up to 10 years. 

If you are eligible for the System Plus® Limited Warranty, you can benefit from the same coverage available in the GAF Roofing System Limited Warranty, an extension of up to 50 years for the Smart Choice Protection Period, plus a complete roof tear-off if necessary. You can ask residential roof maintenance expert and GAF factory certified company, Superior Construction Co. for more details about the coverage included with your new roof. 

What is the Smart Choice Protection Period?

This refers to the crucial period of time following the GAF roof installation where the coverage provided in the warranty is non-prorated. During this time, GAF will pay you the full reasonable cost of labor to repair or re-cover defective GAF products. After this period ends, the repair, re-cover and replacement GAF products provided will be reduced to reflect the use you have received from the roofing system and its accessories.

Just search for “premier residential and commercial roofing contractors near me” online and Superior Construction Co. will be top of the results. With our excellent GAF roofing warranties, we’ll make sure you get the most of your new roof’s life and performance. We proudly serve Groton, MA, and the surrounding areas.
