Why GAF Dominates in Coastal Georgia
Unlimited Wind Protection
GAF's WindProven System is the industry's ONLY warranty with no maximum wind speed. When installed with the complete GAF system, your roof is protected against unlimited wind speeds for 15 years - crucial protection for hurricane-prone areas like Savannah, Tybee Island, and Hinesville.
Superior Algae Resistance
StainGuard Plus technology provides 25-year algae protection - significantly longer than most competitors' 10-year coverage. In Georgia's humid climate where black streaks are common, this extended protection keeps your roof looking new for decades longer.
