GAF Asphalt Shingles – North America’s #1 Roofing Manufacturer
GAF dominates the North American roofing market because their products consistently outperform competitors in real-world conditions. For North Jersey homeowners, GAF shingles offer the perfect combination of weather resistance, energy efficiency, and long-term value.
Timberline HDZ Shingles The Timberline HDZ line represents GAF’s most advanced asphalt shingle technology. These shingles feature StrikeZone™ nailing area technology that provides superior wind resistance – critical for our region’s severe thunderstorms and occasional hurricane conditions. LayerLock™ technology creates an integrated system that performs as a single unit, while VersaCut™ technology ensures consistent exposure and weather protection.
Designer Series Options For homeowners seeking premium aesthetics, GAF’s Designer Series offers architectural styles that mimic slate, wood shake, and other high-end materials while providing superior weather performance. These products excel in North Jersey’s variable climate while delivering the curb appeal that enhances property values.
Algae Resistance GAF incorporates StainGuard Plus™ algae protection in many of their products, addressing the algae growth problems common in our humid summers. This protection helps maintain your roof’s appearance and prevents the premature deterioration that algae can cause.
Energy Efficiency Many GAF products qualify for ENERGY STAR® certification, helping reduce cooling costs during North Jersey’s hot summers. Cool Roof technology reflects solar energy while maintaining attractive appearance options.
ProVia Metal Roofing
Premium Steel Performance
Metal roofing has gained popularity in North Jersey because it handles our extreme weather conditions better than any other roofing material. ProVia leads the industry in both performance and aesthetics, creating metal roofing systems that excel in our demanding climate.
Superior Weather Performance ProVia metal roofs shed snow effectively, reducing the ice dam problems that plague many North Jersey homes. Their interlocking panel systems resist wind uplift forces up to 140 mph, providing security during severe storms. The thermal properties of steel help prevent ice accumulation while maintaining energy efficiency.
Coating Technology ProVia’s advanced coating systems resist fading, chalking, and corrosion even under North Jersey’s challenging conditions. Their Kynar 500® finish systems maintain color integrity for decades while resisting damage from acid rain, salt air, and UV exposure.
Architectural Flexibility ProVia offers metal roofing that accurately replicates slate, wood shake, and traditional shingle appearances. This allows homeowners to achieve premium aesthetics while gaining the superior weather performance that metal provides.
Energy Savings Metal roofing’s reflective properties can reduce cooling costs by 10-25% during summer months. Combined with proper insulation, ProVia metal roofs help maintain comfortable indoor temperatures year-round while reducing energy consumption.
Brava Synthetic Roofing – Authentic Looks, Modern Performance
Brava has revolutionized the roofing industry by creating synthetic products that provide the authentic appearance of natural materials while delivering superior performance. For North Jersey homeowners who want the character of cedar shakes or slate without the maintenance challenges, Brava offers the ideal solution.
Cedar Shake Replication Brava’s synthetic cedar shakes capture the natural variation and texture of authentic wood while eliminating the problems that plague natural cedar in our climate. These products resist moisture absorption, preventing the rot and decay common with wood roofing in North Jersey’s humid conditions.
Slate Appearance Options Natural slate roofing is beautiful but heavy and prone to cracking during freeze-thaw cycles. Brava synthetic slate provides identical aesthetics with fraction of the weight and superior impact resistance.
Weather Resistance Brava products are engineered to withstand North Jersey’s temperature extremes, from sub-zero winter conditions to summer heat exceeding 100°F. They resist cracking, splitting, and degradation while maintaining their appearance for decades.
