What does it mean to be a GAF Certified contractor?
GAF Certified contractors have been trained, vetted, and authorized by GAF — North America's largest roofing manufacturer — to install GAF roofing systems and offer enhanced warranty programs. Certification requires proof of licensing, insurance, and installation quality. Not every roofer qualifies, and it must be maintained annually.
Can any roofer offer GAF warranties?
No. Standard GAF material warranties come with any purchase, but enhanced warranties (Silver Pledge, System Plus, and Golden Pledge) can only be registered by GAF Certified contractors like Prime One Roofing. If your roofer isn't certified, you cannot access these programs regardless of what shingles they install.
Is GAF the best roofing brand for Queens homes?
GAF and Owens Corning are the two industry leaders for asphalt shingles, and GAF's Timberline series is the best-selling shingle in North America. For Queens homeowners, GAF systems perform exceptionally well against the wind, snow, and temperature swings typical of the NYC climate. We also install Owens Corning and can advise which system is right for your specific property.
How do I register my GAF warranty?
We handle all warranty registration on your behalf. After your roof is installed, we submit the registration to GAF directly, and you'll receive your official warranty certificate. We keep a copy on file for you as well. It's part of our process — you don't need to do anything.
