Certified vs. Non-Certified Comparison
Any contractor can say they're "certified." Here's what it actually changes once the job is done.
| Standard Contractor | EZ Roofing GAF Master Elite | |
|---|---|---|
| Can install GAF shingles | Yes | Yes |
| Standard material warranty | Yes | Yes |
| Golden Pledge / System Plus warrantyCovers installation errors | No | Yes |
| Individual crew factory training | Not required | GAF Certified Roofer |
| Re-certification | N/A | Every year |
| Accountability if something goes wrong | Limited | Backed by GAF |
The table above isn't marketing spin. It's the literal difference in what GAF will and won't cover depending on who installs your roof. A standard contractor isn't doing anything wrong by not having Master Elite status, most simply haven't gone through the annual re-certification. But it does mean the strongest warranty tier isn't available to them, no matter how good their workmanship is on the day.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How long does a typical roof replacement take in Nassau or Suffolk County?
A: Most residential replacements complete in 1 to 2 days once materials are on-site and weather cooperates. Bigger or steeper roofs, or ones needing deck repair underneath, can run longer. On Long Island specifically, we plan around weather windows rather than a fixed calendar date, since a nor’easter rolling in mid tear-off is the worst time to find out your roof isn’t watertight yet.
Q: What roofing material holds up best against Long Island's coastal weather?
A: It depends on how close to the water you are and how much wind exposure the roof gets. Standing seam metal handles salt air and high wind better than almost anything else, which is why it shows up so often on waterfront and bayfront properties. GAF architectural shingles, installed as a full system rather than just nailed down, perform well further inland and cost less upfront. We install both, and we’ll tell you honestly which one fits your specific property.
Q: Do you handle commercial roofing too, or just residential?
A: Both. Residential shingle and metal roofs are the bulk of our work, but we also install and repair commercial flat roofing using Carlisle TPO and EPDM systems, the kind found on most retail strips, office buildings, and additions across Nassau, Suffolk, and Queens. The two require different training and different failure points, which is part of why we carry certifications for both.
Q: What's the real difference between your warranty and a standard roofer's?
A: A standard contractor’s warranty usually only protects you if the shingle itself fails, a manufacturing defect. It doesn’t cover an installation mistake, which is actually the more common cause of leaks. Our GAF Master Elite status lets us extend the Golden Pledge and System Plus warranties, which cover installation errors too, for up to 50 years. That’s the gap most homeowners don’t find out about until something goes wrong on someone else’s job.
Q: Are you licensed to work across Nassau, Suffolk, and Queens?
A: Yes. We’re fully licensed and insured to operate across all three counties, and every technician on your property is covered under our liability and workers’ comp insurance.
