Certification FAQs
What does GAF Certified Plus status mean?
GAF lists Weather Shield Roofing as a GAF Certified Plus contractor. This distinction verifies eligibility to offer GAF System Plus and Silver Pledge enhanced limited warranties on qualifying roofing systems. Coverage depends on the installed system, registration, and current GAF terms.
How can I verify your contractor license?
Our South Carolina contractor license can be verified through the SC Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation at LLR.SC.GOV. We're happy to provide our license number upon request. Verifying contractor licenses is an important step when choosing any roofing contractor.
Why does insurance matter for roofing?
Roofing work carries inherent risks. Without proper insurance, YOU could be liable for accidents on your property. Our comprehensive insurance includes general liability (protects your property) and workers' compensation (covers any worker injuries). We provide certificates of insurance upon request. Never hire uninsured contractors.
What warranties come with your certifications?
Our GAF Certified Plus status allows us to offer GAF System Plus and Silver Pledge enhanced limited warranties on qualifying GAF roofing systems. We provide the exact warranty option, coverage, exclusions, and registration requirements in writing for each eligible project.
