Built for Florida. Designed to Last.
When you live in Florida, your roof doesn’t just face sun and rain — it battles heat, humidity, hurricanes, and salt air. That’s why homeowners across Brevard County are choosing GAF Timberline® Steel, a roofing system that merges the timeless beauty of shingles with the unmatched strength of steel.
At Superior One Roofing, we believe your roof should be Superior by Design — engineered for performance, longevity, and peace of mind.
1. Strength Meets Style
GAF Timberline Steel is made from galvanized, high-strength steel designed to resist cracking, splitting, and warping. With its interlocking panels and wind resistance up to 165 mph, this system provides hurricane-grade protection that goes far beyond traditional shingles — all while offering the same dimensional, architectural look homeowners love.
When the storms roll in, Timberline Steel stays locked in.
2. Energy Efficiency for the Sunshine State
Steel reflects solar heat far more effectively than traditional asphalt shingles. Timberline Steel’s Cool Roof Technology keeps your attic cooler and can help lower energy bills during Florida’s hottest months. Combined with proper attic ventilation and insulation, this roofing system provides an energy-efficient upgrade that looks great and performs even better.
3. Built for the Coastline
Living in a coastal county like Brevard means your roof is constantly exposed to salt air — a major enemy of most metals. GAF Timberline Steel is ASTM B117 salt-spray tested, which means it’s approved for coastal use right up to the water’s edge.
Other steel systems often restrict coverage within 1,500 feet of saltwater, but GAF’s advanced corrosion-resistant coatings allow you to enjoy the strength of steel without compromising warranty protection.
4. Comparing Metal Roofing Warranties
Not all metal warranties are created equal — and knowing the difference can save you serious money in the long run.
Here’s how the most common metal finishes compare:
| Metal Type | Typical Warranty Coverage | Coastal Limitation | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mill Finish (Galvalume® Steel) | ~45 years (material only) | Not valid within 1,500 ft of saltwater | Entry-level protection |
| Core Defender – SMP Coated Steel | 50-year material, 30–40-year paint | Not valid within 1,500 ft | Standard mid-tier metal roof |
| Max Defender – PVDF Coated Steel | 50-year material & paint | Not valid within 1,500 ft | Excellent fade/chalk resistance |
| Coastal Defender – PVDF Aluminum | 25-year material & paint | Valid up to the water’s edge | Ideal for coastal properties |
| GAF Timberline® Steel | Lifetime coverage (materials, fade, chalk, corrosion, labor) | Approved for coastal use | Backed by GAF’s Golden Pledge Warranty |
While many metal systems are “material only” warranties, GAF’s Golden Pledge includes full-system coverage — materials and labor — giving you unmatched confidence and long-term value.
5. Shingle vs. Steel: How Warranties Stack Up
Traditional asphalt shingles (like GAF Timberline HDZ®) already carry some of the strongest warranties in the industry — including lifetime limited coverage and wind protection up to 130 mph when installed by a GAF Master Elite® Contractor like Superior One Roofing.
However, GAF Timberline Steel takes protection even further:
-
Lifetime fade and chalk protection
-
Lifetime corrosion and perforation coverage
-
165 mph wind rating
-
Full system labor and material coverage
For Florida homeowners — especially along the coast — that extra layer of protection makes all the difference.
6. Why Warranty Coverage Matters
A roof warranty isn’t just a piece of paper — it’s your long-term protection plan. The right warranty can save you thousands in repair or replacement costs, but only when installed and registered properly by a certified contractor.
Superior One Roofing ensures every GAF roof is installed to manufacturer specifications and registered for full coverage, so you can focus on what matters most — protecting your home and family.
