Here’s Why Less Than 2% Of Tulsa Area Roofers
Have The Qualifications That We Do
“Master Elite” And “Master Craftsmen” Aren’t Titles
You Can Buy… You Have To EARN Them
We get it- at first glance, it’s hard to distinguish the qualified Tulsa area roofers from the ones you can’t trust. After all, every roofer will tell you how great THEY think they are.
But the good news? There are three effective ways to find a trustworthy roofer:
- Read Their Reviews
- Check Out Their Gallery
- Look At Their Certifications, Awards, And Accolades
At GoldenRite Roofing, we’re proud of our five-star review average. And we LOVE showing off our past work. But beyond that, we also have the certifications that place us in the top 2% (and most likely top 1%) of roofers nationwide.
The Certifications You Need To Know: GAF Master Elite
And CertainTeed Master Craftsmen
These are the two certifications that every single roofer wants… but more than 98% of roofers simply don’t have. There are more than half a dozen qualifications roofers must meet to achieve these statuses. Here are four of the most significant:
#1. Licensing & Insurance
First and foremost, any roofer who wants these elite statuses must be fully licensed and insured.
For roofers in Oklahoma, that means their business must be properly registered with the state. Additionally, to receive GAF Master Elite and CertainTeed Master Craftsman status, roofers must have $1 million in general liability insurance. Plus, they must have separate workers’ compensation coverage.
Since we hold both top-level certifications from GAF and CertainTeed, you can rest easy knowing we check every single box. We’re fully licensed and fully insured – so you’re protected from day one.
#2. Complete GAF Or CertainTeed Roofing Systems
Do you want to know an inside-the-industry secret? Many roofers mix and match roofing components from different manufacturers. If they can find ventilation or ridge caps cheaper elsewhere, they may not purchase them from the same quality manufacturer that makes your shingles.
Well, that doesn’t fly with GAF or CertainTeed. If a roofer wants either “Master” statuses, they must use all the same manufacturer’s roofing components. Every. Single. Time.
And by doing so, you’ll get the highest-quality roofing SYSTEM… not just awesome shingles.
#3. More Than Seven Years Of Roofing Experience
If you haven’t been in business for at least seven years, you can’t receive GAF Master Elite status. It’s that simple.
Beyond that, GAF and CertainTeed typically require roofers to use their systems for AT LEAST five years before they can achieve the top statuses.
By choosing a GAF Master Elite or CertainTeed Master Craftsman, you avoid the rookies and rookie mistakes.
Instead, you get proven, experienced roofers who will flawlessly install your roof. Guaranteed.
#4. Pass Quality Inspections
When it comes to meeting qualifications, GAF and CertainTeed verify. They won’t just “take the roofer’s word for it.” From checking company financial records to ensure stability to post-installation inspections, they review everything.
And if they find flaws at ANY point? The roofer won’t receive the top-level status. Period.
#5. Maintain The High Standards… Year After Year
Some roofers think that when they achieve these coveted statuses, that’s that. They can relax and maybe start to cut a corner or two. After all, they’ve finally made it, right?
Wrong.
Roofers with Master Elite or Master Craftsmen status must continually meet annual recertification requirements. If they don’t maintain the standards that got them there, they’ll lose their top status.
The Ultimate Reward? GAF’s Golden Pledge Warranty
It’s simple. When you work with us, you’ll get incredibly durable materials from proven installers. And you’ll also get one of the most generous warranties in the industry. If you choose GAF, you’ll have access to GAF’s Golden Pledge Warranty, which protects you for 25+ years. And if you choose CertainTeed, your roof is covered for 20+ years.
