WinTek USA offers GAF roofing products, including asphalt shingles such as the popular Timberline HDZ® and ArmorShield™ II. These shingles provide options for durability, style, impact resistance, and energy efficiency to meet various homeowner needs.

For most roofing projects, the installation takes 1–2 days. However, timelines may vary depending on the size, complexity of the roof, and weather conditions. Custom orders or repairs might add to the schedule.

To prepare, clear outdoor items such as patio furniture, move vehicles from driveways, and cover items in your attic, as dust and debris might fall. Our team uses drop cloths to protect landscaping and catch debris.

GAF offers several warranty options, including the GAF System Plus and Golden Pledge® warranties. These can cover both materials and workmanship when installed by a GAF Master Elite® contractor like WinTek USA, providing extended peace of mind.

WinTek USA offers durable metal roofing options including Tuff-Rib and Standing Seam systems. These metal roofs are designed to provide long-lasting performance, weather resistance, and aesthetic appeal for both residential and commercial applications.

Tuff-Rib is a popular and economical metal roofing panel with five ¾-inch high ribs spaced 9 inches apart, providing strength and an attractive appearance. It is often used in residential, agricultural, and light commercial buildings and features an anti-siphon groove to prevent leaks on lower slope roofs (as low as 2.5:12).

Standing Seam roofing features concealed fasteners, which provide a sleek appearance and improve weather protection by reducing the risk of leaks. This roofing type is ideal for low-maintenance applications and comes in various profiles, including Maxima, which can handle heavy snow and rain loads efficiently.

Metal roofs generally have a longer lifespan than asphalt shingles, often lasting 40–60 years with proper maintenance. Metal roofing panels are also resistant to wind, hail, and fire, making them a durable option for extreme weather conditions.

Tuff-Rib panels typically carry a 40-year paint warranty and a 30-year fade/chalk warranty, while unpainted Galvalume has a 25-year warranty. Standing Seam panels often come with similar warranties on paint and color retention, providing long-term coverage for your roof’s appearance and functionality.

Yes, metal roofs perform well in all climates. They can handle extreme temperatures, resist damage from hail and wind, and shed snow efficiently, making them ideal for both hot and cold climates.

Metal roofing is highly energy efficient due to its reflectivity, which helps reduce cooling costs by reflecting sunlight. Some metal panels are ENERGY STAR® certified and can provide energy savings, especially when combined with reflective coatings.

When installed with proper insulation and underlayment, metal roofs are no louder than traditional shingle roofs. Insulation helps dampen noise, providing a quieter environment even during heavy rain.

Metal roofs are low maintenance, but occasional inspections are recommended to ensure screws remain tight, panels are secure, and no debris is trapped around flashing or gutters. Cleaning with a gentle solution and avoiding harsh chemicals can help preserve the roof’s finish.

Most metal roof installations take 1–3 days, depending on the roof’s size and complexity. Custom cut panels can speed up the process, and experienced contractors ensure precise fitting and minimal delays.

Yes, Tuff-Rib panels can be installed on low-slope roofs as low as 2.5:12. The anti-siphon groove on these panels helps prevent water leakage on lower slopes, making them versatile for various roof pitches.

Metal roofs like Tuff-Rib and Standing Seam systems are highly impact-resistant, withstanding hail and debris. Certain Standing Seam profiles offer added protection and are rated for extreme wind and weather conditions.

Yes, WinTek USA offers financing options for metal roof installations, with flexible plans including no-interest promotions. Financing terms are subject to credit approval and project specifics.

Metal roofing panels come in various color options, from traditional to vibrant shades. Tuff-Rib and Standing Seam panels are available in painted finishes that resist fading, with warranties for long-lasting color retention.
