Exclusive Access to Industry-Leading Warranties
One of the key advantages of working with a GAF PlatinumElite™ Commercial Contractor like Tricera Roofing is access to GAF’s best warranty options. These include the Diamond Pledge™ NDL Roof Guarantee, which offers up to 35 years of coverage on workmanship and materials.
Our status also enables access to enhanced inspection services from GAF, ensuring that each step of the roofing project is up to spec and backed by performance-based standards. With the industry’s best protection in place, clients can be confident their building’s roof is secured by both installation excellence and comprehensive long-term warranty support.
GAF’s commercial warranties are designed to reduce liability, mitigate risks, and provide building owners with dependable protection over the long term. These warranties are non-prorated, transferable, and often include coverage for edge-to-edge roof systems, flashings, and membrane performance.
As a GAF PlatinumElite™ contractor, Tricera Roofing is qualified to install complex assemblies and issue warranties that cover materials and labor with no dollar limit (NDL). This distinguishes us from standard contractors and positions us as a reliable, high-performance partner. Whether you manage a retail center, industrial facility, or institutional property, our ability to provide extended warranties ensures your operations are protected from costly repairs or replacements.
In addition to system warranties, we support our clients with post-installation services, including maintenance recommendations and performance check-ins. Partnering with us means you’re not only getting the highest quality installation, but also long-term value and trust backed by a manufacturer that leads the industry.
What It Takes to Become GAF Certified in Commercial Roofing

To qualify as a GAF Certified Commercial Roofing Contractor, a company must meet stringent requirements that ensure excellence, reliability, and professionalism in every aspect. This certification isn’t handed out lightly—it begins with a thorough evaluation of a contractor’s installation history, technical expertise, and overall business operations. Contractors must show a consistent track record of installing GAF roofing systems according to the manufacturer’s exacting standards. They are also required to maintain all appropriate state and local licenses, as well as carry up-to-date liability and workers’ compensation insurance to protect clients and employees alike.

Great company to work with! I have a building in Pennsylvania but live in another state. My roof was leaking and Zac was sent out and did the inspection on the roof. When he was at the building he called and sent me a link to live pictures

Barb Goliad
I called Tricera Roofing to come check out my building. I had a company put silicone roof coating on it 5 years ago and since day one it never stopped the leaking problems, the other company came out 5 times to “fix the problem” but never did. Zac came out and evaluated my problem and gave me a ton of information on the best solution to fix the problem.
