What types of warranties does GAF provide?
GAF provides three types of warranties offered exclusively by Master Elite Contractors:
Golden Pledge Warranty
- The most inclusive warranty available. It covers any manufacturer defects for the entire lifetime of the shingle, AND up to 30 years of workmanship defects. Also, this includes tear-off and disposal costs. If any repairs are ever needed, they will be completed by a GAF Master Elite™ Roofing Contractor. GAF is committed to ensuring homeowners have access to the best resources available. This warranty is a one-time transferable warranty.
Silver Pledge Warranty
- This is a mid-level warranty. It covers 100% of all manufacturer defects for the entire lifetime of the shingle, but the workmanship coverage only lasts 10 years. Additionally, this warranty includes tear-off and disposal costs. This is a one-time transferable warranty.
System Plus Warranty
- The lowest level warranty. It also includes the coverage of 100% of all manufacturer defects for the entire lifetime of the shingle, but the workmanship is not covered. Also, homeowners have to pay for disposal fees, despite the tear-off cost being covered. It is a one-time transferable warranty.
