GAF President's Club · GAF's Highest HonorGAF President's Club: The Elite of the Elite
Patriots' Roofing is a GAF President's Club Award Winner, the single highest honor GAF gives a roofing contractor. It is the proof behind every roof we install: the highest installation standard, the strongest warranties, and a family name we have carried since 1836.
Licensed & InsuredNC #85568
The GAF President's Club is GAF's highest honor for a roofing contractor. It is awarded only to GAF Master Elite roofers who go beyond the top two percent on installation quality, ongoing training, and customer satisfaction. Fewer than half of Master Elite contractors qualify. Patriots' Roofing has earned it, along with Master Elite status and IBHS FORTIFIED certification, as a fifth-generation family company.
What Master Elite means, and why so few earn it
GAF is North America's largest roofing manufacturer, and it does not hand its name out lightly. The GAF Master Elite designation is reserved for roughly the top two percent of roofers in the country. To hold it, a contractor must be properly licensed, carry full insurance, maintain a clean reputation, and complete continuous factory training. It is the only designation that unlocks the strongest warranties GAF offers.
- Top two percent of roofers nationwide.
- The only credential that can offer the 50-year GAF Golden Pledge limited warranty.
- Verified licensing, insurance, and an ongoing record of quality.
President's Club: a tier above Master Elite
If Master Elite is the top two percent, the President's Club is the best of that group. GAF scores contractors each year on a points system that weighs installation excellence, training depth, and how homeowners rate the experience. Only the contractors who clear that higher bar are named President's Club Award Winners, and fewer than half of all Master Elite roofers ever do. It is not bought or renewed automatically. It is earned, every single year, on the roofs we install.
- GAF's highest recognition for a roofing contractor.
- Measured on craftsmanship, training, and real customer satisfaction.
- Re-earned annually, so it reflects how we work right now.
What all of this means for your home
Credentials only matter if they change the roof over your head. Ours do. You get an installation held to GAF's strictest standard, access to the longest and strongest GAF warranties, and a contractor that has been vetted by the manufacturer and by generations of homeowners.
