FAQs
Why should I choose GAF roofing materials for my roof replacement in Newcomb?
GAF is North America’s largest roofing manufacturer, known for high-quality asphalt shingles such as Timberline HDZ. Their products are engineered to withstand the varied climate in Newcomb—hot, humid summers and occasional coastal storms—thanks to Advanced Protection® technology that resists wind, algae, and impact. GAF also offers complete roofing systems (underlayment, ventilation, ridge caps) that work together for better performance and a single-source warranty.
How long does a typical GAF roof replacement take in Newcomb?
Most single-family homes in Newcomb can be reroofed with GAF materials in 1–3 days once permits and materials are in hand. The timeline depends on roof size, pitch, and any underlying deck repairs discovered after tear-off. Weather can add minor delays, but GAF’s quick-install components—like StrikeZone™ nailing on Timberline HDZ shingles—help crews finish efficiently and keep disruption to your household minimal.
What warranty options come with a GAF roofing system?
When your roof is installed by a GAF Master Elite® or Certified™ contractor, you can upgrade from the standard 10-year limited shingle warranty to System Plus (50-year material, 2-year workmanship), Silver Pledge (50-year material, 10-year workmanship), or Golden Pledge® (50-year material, 25-year workmanship) warranties. All cover 130 mph wind, Smart Choice® Protection, and transferable coverage, adding resale value to your home in Newcomb.
How much will a GAF roof replacement cost in Newcomb?
Costs vary with roof size, slope, and shingle line chosen. In Newcomb, homeowners typically spend $4.50–$7.50 per square foot for Timberline HDZ shingles, including tear-off, underlayment, ventilation, flashings, disposal, and labor. Designer shingles like Timberline UHDZ or Glenwood can run $8–$12 per square foot. Obtain a written estimate after on-site inspection; local rebates or insurance savings for wind-resistant roofs may offset part of the expense.
Do Newcomb’s coastal weather conditions affect the choice or installation of GAF shingles?
Yes. Newcomb’s proximity to the Atlantic brings high winds and salt air. Choose GAF shingles rated for 130 mph wind (Timberline HDZ, Timberline NS) and request stainless-steel nails in severe shoreline zones. A professional installer will also add GAF StormGuard® leak barrier around eaves and valleys to prevent wind-driven rain intrusion and ensure proper attic ventilation to combat humid summers and extend shingle life.
What should I expect during the roof replacement process with a GAF-certified contractor?
The contractor will secure permits from the Town of Newcomb, deliver materials, and protect landscaping with tarps. After removing old shingles, they’ll inspect decking, replace rotted sheathing, and install GAF Deck-Armor® underlayment, WeatherWatch® ice-and-water shield, starter strips, and shingles. Ridge vents and cap shingles finish the system. Daily magnetic nail sweeps and a final cleanup leave your property tidy, and you’ll receive warranty registration paperwork within days.
