GAF Shingles - FAQ
Real answers from Ryan Thompson the Owner of Vantage Roofing Solutions
What is the most affordable GAF Shingle?
The most affordable GAF shingle to install in Houston is going to be the Timberline NS. This is a great shingle for someone on a tight budget looking to get a quality roof replacement, or someone who is needing a new roof to sell their home.
How do I pick between HDZ and UHDZ.
The quick answer is, if you are okay with spending $2,000 to $4,000 more on your roof replacement then UHDZ would be the better pick.
However, Class 4 Impact-Resistant Shingles like UHDZ can come with some downsides. For example, your insurance carrier may offer you a larger discount on your premium for Hail & Wind, but they may put a cosmetic clause on your policy. If you want to learn more about Class 4 Shingles, and if they are a good fit for you. Check out this blog I wrote. Class 4 Shingles Insurance Discount in Texas.
Is GAF a good shingle for Houston?
Yes, GAF is one of the strongest shingles and offers an unlimited wind warranty on their HDZ, UHDZ, and Luxury shingles if it is installed with their complete system. This makes it a perfect choice for The Greater Houston area.
Does GAF have different Luxury shingle designs?
Yes, GAF offers multiple shingle designs for their Luxury shingle line up.
Camelot® II: Slate-like shape with European architecture.
Woodland®: Stylish look of hand-cut European shingles.
Slateline®: Tapered cuts and bold shadow lines create the look of slate roofs at a fraction of the cost.
Grand Sequoia®: Gives the unique look of wood shake with a beautiful pattern.
How long does it take to install a GAF roof?
For Timberline, HDZ, and UHDZ most roof replacements take 1 day, and for larger roofs (10,000+ square feet) 2 days.
Any GAF luxury shingle, the installation time ranges from 2 to 5 days.
What is your favorite GAF shingle?
My favorite GAF shingle to install would be the Grand Sequoia AS. It’s a great shingle for homeowners who want to give a custom look to their home without spending the money on a synthetic cedar shake roof, or a real cedar shake roof.
