Asphalt shingle roofs are the most common roofing type across the US, with Arizona being no exception. Modern dimensional shingles can enhance your home’s appearance while providing a durable and long-lasting roof. As a GAF Master Elite Contractor, Yavapai Roofing offers special extended warranties, including Silver and Gold Pledge warranties that cover 10 and 25-year workmanship and 50-year non-prorated material warranties.
ABOUT ASPHALT SHINGLE ROOFING IN NORTHERN ARIZONA
In the mountainous regions of Arizona, shingles must withstand wind, rain, and severe weather. Numerous manufacturers produce shingles, including GAF, Malarkey, CertainTeed, and Owens Corning. For the Prescott, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, and Dewey areas, we often choose GAF shingles due to their excellent performance against the local weather conditions. As one of GAF’s Master Elite Contractors, we provide superior long-term extended warranties when installing their products.
THE GAF WARRANTIES
To offer GAF’s best warranties, we underwent rigorous training, testing, and proved years of experience and skill in installing their shingles. We provide two main warranties:
Silver Pledge Warranty
- 10-year workmanship warranty
- 50-year material warranty, non-prorated
- Requires installation of at least four GAF products (e.g., synthetic underlayment, Pro-Start starter shingles, Timberline HDZ shingles, Z-Ridge)
Golden Pledge Warranty
- 25-year workmanship warranty
- 50-year material warranty, non-prorated
- Requires installation of at least five GAF products (e.g., synthetic underlayment, ice and water barrier, Pro-Start starter shingles, Timberline HDZ shingles, Z-Ridge)
These warranties are transferable once to a new owner, adding value for potential buyers or family members inheriting your home. After completing your roofing project, we register your roof with GAF, and you receive a warranty certificate. This warranty covers leaks and premature shingle wear.
The Shingle Roof Near Prescott
An asphalt shingle roof comprises several material layers. We start by removing existing roofing and cleaning the deck, replacing any rotten sheeting.
- Drip Edge Installation: We install a new drip edge in white, black, or brown to match your shingles and house colors.
- Ice and Water Barriers: GAF WeatherWatch barriers are installed in valleys and around roof penetrations, and at the eaves in higher elevations to prevent ice and water buildup.
- Synthetic Underlayment: We use GAF FeltBuster synthetic underlayment, which outperforms traditional felt by resisting drying and cracking.
- Shingle Installation: Shingles are installed from the eaves upward, with each course overlapping the previous one.
- Ridge Installation: Finally, we install the ridge to complete your roofing system.
