What is the Golden Pledge® Warranty?

There’s a warranty for so many things we buy today – from electronics to appliances to the warranties offered on a new or used car. Some of those warranties and the companies that offer them have become the butt of jokes and memes – because they’re not worth the paper they’re printed on.

The GAF Golden Pledge® Warranty is different. GAF is the leading manufacturer of roofing systems in the United States. In fact, 1 of 4 homes in the US have a GAF roof. We are proud to install their products and offer this superior warranty.

Let us explain why this is the best warranty offered in the roofing industry and how it protects you.

What the GAF Golden Pledge® Warranty Covers

The Golden Pledge® Warranty covers more aspects of your new roof for longer than any other roofing warranty. The warranty covers the entire GAF roofing system including:

 

  • Leak barriers
  • Roof deck protection
  • Attic ventilation products
  • Flashing
  • Shingles
  • Ridge cap shingles
  • Starter strip shingles

 

With this warranty, you get:

  • 100% coverage for manufacturing defects up to 50 years
  • Wind Warranty Coverage up to 130 mph with special installation
  • Algae Warranty Coverage up to 25 years
  • 100% coverage for workmanship defects up to 30 years

That last point is huge since the majority of problems that occur after roof replacement are due to improper installation. The exact warranty coverage period will depend on the type of GAF shingles you choose. If you ever have a problem with your roof, you simply call GAF to file a claim. The warranty is also transferrable should you sell your home.

There is one catch. In order to be eligible for the GAF Golden Pledge Warranty, your roof must be installed by a GAF Master Elite® Contractor like NV Roofing.

What Is a GAF Master Elite® Roofing Contractor?

GAF Master Elite™ roofing contractors are among the top 2% of roofing contractors in the United States. The Master Elite certification means a roofing company is factory-certified through GAF. We have undergone intensive training and have continuing education in GAF products and proper installation.

Choosing a GAF Master Elite® contractor like NV Roofing gives you the peace of mind that you will be dealing with an experienced, dependable, and professional contractor. For a roofing company to qualify for the certification, they must meet or exceed several standards:

  • Successfully complete initial GAF training
  • Have a commitment to ongoing education
  • Have an A+ BBB rating
  • Hold current licenses for the state(s) they work in
  • Have been in business for at least 3 years
  • Are properly insured

To keep the certification, a contractor must pass random inspections conducted by GAF inspectors of their roofing installations. This is GAF’s way of ensuring that only the best of the best can offer the Golden Pledge® Warranty.
