The GAF TimberSteel Premium Metal Roofing System offers beauty, strength, and affordability, including layers of protection innovatively designed to help protect your home against the elements. Designed for easy application with an asphalt crew, the TimberSteel system can be installed in approximately half the time of a standing seam metal roofing system1. The GAF TimberSteel system is backed by a limited warranty with an industry-leading 30 years of workmanship coverage when installed by a GAF Metal Certified Contractor2 and you purchase a TimberSteel ArmorPledge Limited Warranty3.
1 Results based on a test commissioned by GAF and conducted by Home Innovations Research Lab, an independent third party comparing installation of GAF TimberSteel roofing system to on-site roll-formed standing seam metal roofing system with mechanical double lock seams on 16 square model roof under controlled laboratory conditions. Actual installation times may vary.
2 Contractors enrolled in GAF certification programs are not employees or agents of GAF, and GAF does not control or otherwise supervise these independent businesses. Contractors may receive benefits, such as loyalty rewards points and discounts on marketing tools from GAF for participating in the program and offering GAF enhanced warranties, which require the use of a minimum amount of GAF products. Your dealings with a Contractor, and any services they provide to you, are subject to the Contractor Terms of Use.
