GAF is an industry leader in asphalt shingles, and Murray’s Roofing and Siding, Inc. is a leader in roofing installations, making us the perfect team.  Cutting edge manufacturing methods and research has allowed GAF to offer an industry changing lifetime warranty on all dimensional and designer shingle products.

All warranties and installers are NOT created equal, so choosing the right pair is crucial to protecting your new roof installation.  The chart below will give you the three warranty options we offer.  The better and best options are great choices for almost any situation, and are the ultimate in homeowner protection, and even better, the cost to install these superior systems is much less than you might think.  We are a member of GAF’s Master Elite factory certified installers, less that 2% of all roofers can earn this distinct designation.

* The above guide is meant to be a general quick reference document and does not represent GAF legal documentation.  Check ltd. warranties for complete coverage and restrictions. Also note:

  • The word “lifetime” means as long as the original individual owner of a single family detached residence (or the second owner in certain circumstances) owns the property where the shingles are installed. For owners/structures (e.g., a church) not meeting above criteria, warranty term is 40 years. See limited warranty for complete coverage and restrictions.
  • Installer certification is only for installations covered by GAF system warranties
  • Maximum wind coverage requires special installation.  See warranty for complete coverage and restrictions.
  • The guide above assumes installation of Architectural or Designer shingles. 3 Tabs are not included in any of these numbers, as their warranty structure is significantly different.
