GAF Timberline shingle roofs built for Florida's worst weather.
We are a GAF Master Elite® and GAF Certified Plus contractor — the highest installer credentials GAF awards. That means access to the strongest warranties, the best products, and a crew trained to install them right the first time.
The right shingle, installed by the right crew.
GAF is North America's largest roofing manufacturer, and the Timberline HDZ® is the most popular shingle in the country. As GAF Master Elite® contractors, we install the Timberline lineup the way the manufacturer specifies — with the right underlayment, the right nailing pattern, and the right ventilation — so you get every year of life the warranty promises.
We are also a GAF Certified Plus contractor, which means you have access to the most comprehensive warranty options in the industry, including the Golden Pledge® Lifetime Warranty.

Common questions about shingle roofs.
What is the best shingle for Florida homes?
For most Jacksonville homes, the GAF Timberline HDZ® is the best balance of performance and price. It includes LayerLock™ technology, a class-leading StrikeZone™ nailing area, the WindProven™ wind warranty (no maximum wind speed), and 25-year StainGuard Plus™ algae protection — ideal for our humid coastal climate.
How long do asphalt shingle roofs last in Florida?
A properly installed GAF architectural shingle roof typically lasts 22 to 30 years in Northeast Florida. Performance depends on ventilation, attic temperature, sun exposure, and storm history. Our installations include premium underlayment and ring-shank nails to maximize lifespan.
How much does a new shingle roof cost in Jacksonville?
Most homeowners in the Jacksonville area pay between $9,000 and $18,000 for a complete shingle replacement, depending on roof size, pitch, complexity, and the shingle line. We provide free written estimates with three clear price tiers.
Is the Timberline HDZ a Class 4 impact shingle?
GAF Timberline HDZ® carries a UL 2218 Class 3 impact-resistance rating and a Class A fire rating. If you want Class 4 hail resistance for insurance discounts, ask about our upgraded shingle and Worthouse metal roof options.
