SOLAR ROOF
A roof with power added.
The new Timberline Solar™ roofing system is so advanced it makes solar simple.
Homeowners no longer have to compromise when adding solar power to their roof. Get a great-looking roof, a single GAF-backed warranty, and solar energy.
Water-shedding and warranted
Timberline Solar™ is made up of shingles, not panels or heavy tiles. These shingles are water-shedding, strong and warranted to withstand winds up to 130 mph. Rack-mounted solar installations—where the solar is separate from the roof—require the drilling of dozens of holes into the roof membrane. Any resulting damage related to those holes is not typically covered by roof warranties.
For homeowners who already know the quality of GAF roofing products, the Timberline Solar™ roof has the same wind and water-shedding warranty coverage as Timberline HDZ.
Curb appeal
Investing in a home is no small matter – and the way it looks is important. Timberline Solar™ has a design that blends in with the aesthetic of the house, with elements that add visual appeal like an architectural shingle.
Here at GAF Energy, we strive to not just meet homeowners expectations for roofing reliability, but to achieve breakthroughs with aesthetics.
How solar savings work
With a GAF Energy solar roof, you’ll not only get a roof that’s durable and has curb appeal, it’s also financially smart, since you can save on your energy bills over time.
“I have a great roof that protects us from the rain, looks better than my old roof, and generates energy. And economically, it worked out better than going with two separate companies. I like the idea that if something goes wrong, I only have to make one phone call, whether it’s for the roof or the solar.”

Meeting–and raising–the bar
Timberline Solar™ can supply your home with electricity every day, every hour the sun is shining.
And while we don’t want to talk tech jargon, it’s met some industry-leading standards such as UL 7103 certification, which means it’s been through rigorous testing from an independent certification company that’s been around for over one hundred years. We’re committed to the quality of our product.
“I love that my customers can get a new roof AND solar at the same time, from one source…
R E Roofing. As a roofer, I’m committed to giving my customers a roof that looks good and protects them from the elements. And by getting the roof and solar from us, I’m not dealing with follow-up calls from one of my customers about punctures in the shingles from a rack-mounted solar system. This is one sleek, integrated design that all works together.”

It makes sense (and cents)
A solar roof is one project, one design, one crew, one straightforward proposition. And, it may pay for itself over time, as it generates energy for the home and reduces monthly electric bills.
“The overall cost of my roof with the solar was surprisingly affordable and the financing they offered was very competitive. Having the same installer for both the shingles and solar simplified the installation process and eliminated the need for contacting multiple parties if any issues arise.”

GAF Energy Customer Westminster, Maryland
“Installation? A breeze.”
That’s a direct quote from one of our roofing partners. Timberline Solar™ Energy Shingles are the world’s first nailable solar shingles, which makes Timberline Solar™ easy to install. This solar roof goes on with a nail gun, and roofing know-how.
That means local GAF-certified roofers who live and work in your community can install the product.
