We hold GAF Master Elite certification on the residential side and GAF GoldElite Commercial Contractor status on the commercial side, with access to enhanced GAF warranties and guarantees on qualifying systems.
GAF is the largest roofing manufacturer in North America, and its contractor program runs on two separate certification tracks: Master Elite for residential roofing and GoldElite Commercial Contractor status for commercial roofing. Neither is a badge a contractor earns once and keeps. GAF reviews license status, insurance coverage, time in business, and customer satisfaction every year on both programs, and renewal isn't guaranteed just because a contractor met the bar the year before.
About 2% of roofing contractors nationwide hold GAF Master Elite status, and USA Home & Commercial is one of them. On the commercial side, we hold GAF GoldElite Commercial Contractor status, which qualifies us to back qualifying commercial systems with GAF's Diamond Pledge NDL Roof Guarantee, no-dollar-limit coverage for up to 25 years. Together, both certifications mean our strongest warranty coverage is backed directly by GAF, not just by us.
GAF Master Elite is a residential roofing certification available to a select group of contractors. Contractors must meet GAF program requirements, including applicable licensing and insurance, and maintain annual renewal requirements and ongoing training.
GAF Master Elite contractors can offer the Golden Pledge® Limited Warranty on qualifying roofing systems, including a 50-year non-prorated manufacturing-defect coverage period for qualifying single-family homes and 25 or 30 years of workmanship coverage depending on the roofing system.
GAF GoldElite Commercial Contractors are evaluated annually for reputation, quality, and commitment to current roofing technology and installation methods. GoldElite contractors can offer GAF's Diamond Pledge™ NDL Roof Guarantee on qualifying systems.
GoldElite contractors can offer GAF's Diamond Pledge™ NDL Roof Guarantee with coverage terms up to 25 years on qualifying commercial roofing systems. Eligibility, coverage, terms, and restrictions depend on the system installed.
