Duro Last Roofing Contractor
The Duro-Last roofing system membrane is a proprietary thermoplastic formulation consisting of resins and plasticizers, stabilizers, biocides, flame retardants and U.V. absorbents. A weft-insertion knitted scrim that is laminated between two layers of film gives the membrane its strength and durability. The Duro-Last membrane is available in white, tan or gray.
Duro-Last has met or exceeded all major fire and wind code requirements, and regional approvals as necessary throughout the country. These certifications reinforce Duro-Last’s leadership in providing the consistent, watertight integrity that building owners expect.
Duro-Last has been approved by Factory Mutual as a 1-60,1-90, 1-105, 1-150 and 1-210 roofing system. Duro-Last is also listed by Underwriters Laboratories as a UL Class A material. Evaluation services ICBO and NES have merged to form ICC-ES, which has evaluated Duro-Last for the International Building Code (IBC). The Duro-Last roofing system has been approved by the IBC and by code agency MIAMI-DADE for use in their respective jurisdictions.
Duro-Last is proud to be a charter partner of the ENERGY STAR® Roof Products Program. The ENERGY STAR label indicates to building owners and managers that the Duro-Last white membrane can save them money on cooling costs due to its high reflectivity (reflects over 86% of the sun’s energy). Duro-Last is also a charter member of the Cool Roof Rating Council (CRRC) and a member of the United States Green Building Council (USGBC). Duro-Last participates in all major technical committees in the roofing industry, plus the American Society of Testing Materials (ASTM).

GAF Has Asked Us All Of The Tough Questions—So You Don’t Have To
Asking the right questions is the key to selecting the right contractor. To become a certified GAF Master Elite™ roofing contractor, a contractor must show that they are:
• Fully licensed in their state (or local area) to perform roofing work*
• Adequately insured for your protection
• Have a proven reputation for providing quality roofing services throughout their community
• Committed to ongoing professional training to ensure quality installation
Because of GAF’s stringent standards, only the top 2% of all roofing contractors have qualified as Master Elite™ contractors! Choosing a Master Elite™ Contractor is your assurance that you’ll be dealing with a quality, reputable, and dependable professional contractor — not some “fly-by-nighter.”
(*Where licensing is available)
Factory-Certified Installation
To ensure your total satisfaction, Master Elite™ Contractors have been provided with extensive training materials developed by GAF’s technical experts—allowing them to stay current in the latest roof installation techniques. In fact, every Master Elite™ Contractor is required to train their foremen using GAF’s Quality Assurance Roofing Educational Program.
Superior Protection
Most people think that a new roof is nothing more than just banging up some shingles. But our Master Elite™ Contractors know better—so they recommend GAF’s Weather Stopper® 5-part roofing system. The Weather Stopper® system offers you the best protection against a variety of all-too-common roofing problems. Plus, each component of the Weather Stopper® System has earned the prestigious Good Housekeeping Seal!
“Worry-Free”And “Hassle-Free” Warranty Options
Because of their unique training and factory-certified status, roofs installed by Master Elite™ Contractors are eligible for special warranties — all backed by GAF’s financial clout as North America’s largest roofing manufacturer. After all, a warranty is only as good as the manufacturer that stands behind it. With a GAF roof, you know that you will be covered throughout the warranty period —without fail! Ask your Master Elite™ Contractor about which warranty option would be right for your home. Note: Certification is related only to installation covered by GAF enchanced warranties.
Your Safest Choice
Don’t trust your biggest asset to just any contractor. GAF factory-certified Master Elite™ contractors are your best and safest choice!
*Note: This credential was held by Abraham Lincoln until 2007 at which time we chose not to renew our business relationship with GAF-ELK. In 2008 our firm switched to only Certainteed shingle roofing systems and take part in only Certainteed accredited programs.
