Every NJ Roofing installation is a complete GAF system — not just shingles. This is what makes our warranty coverage possible.
GAF WeatherWatch® or StormGuard® leak barrier at eaves, valleys, and vulnerable penetration areas before any shingle goes down.
GAF FeltBuster® or Tiger Paw™ synthetic underlayment — a second line of defense between the shingles and your roof deck.
GAF Pro-Start® or WeatherBlocker™ starter strips seal the eave and rake edges for maximum wind resistance from day one.
America's #1 selling shingle with LayerLock® Technology, 130 MPH wind warranty, and StainGuard Plus™ algae protection.
Cobra® ridge vents and intake ventilation assessed on every project. Proper airflow extends shingle life and reduces energy costs.
TimberTex® or Ridglass® premium ridge cap shingles complete the system with enhanced aesthetics and wind resistance.
Not all roofing warranties are equal. As a GAF Certified Plus contractor, NJ Roofing unlocks enhanced warranty tiers most contractors cannot offer.
Any contractor can install GAF shingles. But only GAF Certified Plus contractors like NJ Roofing are authorized to offer the enhanced Silver Pledge and System Plus warranties — coverage most contractors simply cannot provide. The Silver Pledge adds protection for our workmanship and includes tear-off.
