Questions and answers

UHDZ shingle questions.

What is the difference between GAF Timberline UHDZ and HDZ?

UHDZ features GAF's Dual Shadow Line, which creates dramatic shadows through the day. Compare it with Timberline HDZ samples at your consultation. We also explain the impact ratings and warranty options for each.

Are UHDZ shingles impact resistant?

Yes. UHDZ with UltraMat has a UL 2218 Class 4 laboratory impact rating. It applies only to shingles sold in packages bearing both the UltraMat logo and Class 4 classification statement. GAF does not warrant performance against hail. Hail damage is not covered under its limited warranty.

What colors does Timberline UHDZ come in?

The confirmed colors are Barkwood, Charcoal, Shakewood, Slate and Weathered Wood. Your project consultant brings samples and confirms local availability.

How long does a UHDZ roof last?

There is no single lifespan for every roof. Installation, attic ventilation, weather and maintenance all affect how long it lasts. A warranty term is not a prediction of roof life.

Does the shingle warranty cover installation?

No. GAF's shingle warranty covers the shingles, while workmanship coverage depends on who installs the roof. Golden Pledge requires a Master Elite contractor, a qualifying GAF system and registration. Your project consultant explains the required components and the coverage that applies to your property.

How much does a UHDZ roof cost?

It depends on the roof size, pitch, , roof board condition and the complete system. We inspect and measure your roof, then build a personalized estimate at the consultation. Each part of the work is named and priced.

Can UHDZ be installed over existing shingles?

No. On our full replacements, we remove the old roofing so we can inspect the roof boards underneath. Your estimate explains how we handle hidden damage before the new roof goes on.
