provide exceptional
protection against leaks
caused by roof settling
and extreme weather. Ideal
upgrade at all vulnerable
areas (including at the
eaves in the North*).
“Breathable” Deck-Armor™
allows moisture to escape
from your attic while providing
an exceptionally strong layer
of protection against winddriven rain. It also lays flatter
for a better-looking roof.

great protection for your roof.

Choosing the right
shingle can increase
the value of your home.
GAF-Elk offers you many
great shingle choices,
including Timberline®,
the #1-selling
architectural shingles
in North America.
Cobra ® and Master Flow®
vents help remove excess
heat and moisture from
your attic that can raise
your energy bills, cause
premature peeling
of interior paint and
wallpaper, and even
affect your health.
Similar to the way
that a distinctive frame
enhances a painting,
Timbertex ® and
Ridglass® can enhance
the beauty and value
of your home–while
guarding against leaks
at the hips and ridges.
