What Goes Into a GAF Lifetime Roofing System?

If you’re planning a full roof replacement this spring, you shouldn’t settle for cheap bids and low-quality materials. To ensure the success of this project, you should only hire a company with the right expertise for the job. Of all the professional roofers available in the area, a certified GAF roofer is your best bet. They install high-quality Lifetime roofing systems that offer long-term weather protection, energy efficiency and value.

As a trusted roof repair and replacement contractor, LePage and Sons Roofing LLC discusses the essential components that make up a GAF Lifetime roofing system.

Roof Ventilation

As a certified GAF contractor, we have the expertise and equipment to ensure your new roofing system has enough intake and exhaust vents installed. We can install the Cobra® Attic Ventilation system, which effectively removes heat and excess moisture from your attic. This prevents problems related to poor ventilation or insulation, including moisture buildup that can cause mold growth and ice dam formation.

Leak Barriers

A GAF-certified roofing contractor installs leak barriers on vulnerable areas of the roof like the eaves, roof valleys and rake edges. They help prevent leaks caused by ice dams and rain while standing up to extreme weather. There are different GAF leak barrier products to choose from, including the StormGuard® Film-Surfaced Leak Barrier and the WeatherWatch® Mineral-Surfaced Leak Barrier.

Shingles

When installing a GAF roofing system over your home, we use three types of shingles. Our starter strip shingles lock your primary shingles in place to prevent shingle blow-offs during strong winds. Our Lifetime shingles are known for their beauty, versatility and durability, boasting remarkable resistance to impact, fire and wind. Our ridge cap shingles complete your new roof’s appearance and prevent water leakage on the hips and ridges. 

LePage and Sons Roofing LLC is a residential roofing contractor with more than 15 years of experience in the industry. Give us a call at (508) 295-6483 or fill out our online contact form to request a roof estimate.
