CertainTeed or GAF…which one?

CertainTeed Landmark and GAF Timberline HDZ are both top-of-the-line asphalt shingle options known for their durability and aesthetics. Here's a quick comparison to help you decide:

Durability:

Both offer excellent wind resistance, but CertainTeed Landmark boasts a slight edge with a Class 3 impact resistance rating (hail) compared to GAF Timberline HDZ's Class 2.

Warranty:

GAF Timberline HDZ shingles come with a standard 25-year algae resistance warranty, while CertainTeed Landmark offers a 10-year warranty. However, Certainteed's warranty terms are generally considered more straightforward.
