Two certifications, and why they matter to you
Every roof we book is installed by Jersey Roofing, which holds both. Any roofer can buy GAF or Owens Corning shingles. A standard shingle warranty covers manufacturing defects, but not how the roof was installed. The longest workmanship coverage either manufacturer offers can only be registered by contractors it has certified.
Master Elite® Contractor
GAF's highest residential certification. Only 2% of roofers in North America are invited to become GAF Master Elite® Contractors. It requires proper licensing, $1 million in liability coverage, workers' compensation, ongoing training and a steady record of installing complete GAF systems. Jersey Roofing has also earned GAF's President's Club Award, which fewer than half of Master Elite® contractors qualify for.

A roof is a system, not just shingles
Leaks rarely start in the middle of a shingle. They start at eaves, valleys, flashing and vents. That's why manufacturers tie their best warranties to a complete system of matched components, installed by a certified crew.
- 1Ridge vent and ridge capLets hot, moist attic air out at the peak, under a cap shingle made for the ridge.
- 2Architectural shinglesGAF Timberline® or Owens Corning Duration®, nailed to the manufacturer's high-wind pattern.
- 3Starter stripSeals the first course at the eaves and rakes, where wind uplift starts.
- 4Synthetic underlaymentA second water-shedding layer over the whole deck.
- 5Ice and water leak barrierSelf-adhering membrane at the eaves and valleys. NY code requires it here because of ice damming.
- 6Roof deckInspected board by board once the old roof is off. Soft or rotted sheathing is replaced.

Questions homeowners ask us
Is the roof inspection really free?
Yes. We inspect the roof, the flashing and the attic, then walk you through what we found. There's no charge and no obligation.
Do I need a building permit to replace my roof in Westchester?
Usually, yes. New York's Uniform Code doesn't exempt reroofing from permits, and most Westchester municipalities require a building permit for a full replacement. Villages issue their own; hamlets go through the parent town. We confirm the rule for your address, and Jersey Roofing files the permit as part of the job.
Can you put a new roof over my old one?
New York's residential code doesn't allow a new layer over a roof that already has two or more layers, over slate or tile, or over a roof that's water-soaked or deteriorated. Even where an overlay is allowed, we recommend a full tear-off so the deck can be inspected and repaired. GAF's Golden Pledge® warranty requires it.
Should I choose GAF or Owens Corning?
Both make excellent shingles, and Jersey Roofing can register each company's strongest warranty. The choice usually comes down to the look and color you want, wind and impact ratings for your location, and the details of the warranty you prefer. We bring samples of both to the inspection.
Can you help with my insurance claim?
We document storm damage with photos and measurements and meet your adjuster to answer questions about the roof. New York law doesn't allow us or a contractor to negotiate a claim for you; only a licensed public adjuster can do that. We'll tell you plainly whether we see storm damage or normal wear.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most single-family homes are finished in one to three days once materials are delivered. Large, steep or complicated roofs, slate removal and weather can add time. You get a schedule before work starts, and Jersey Roofing's crew protects landscaping, siding and driveways during the tear-off.
