This August (2015), Roofing Annex had the honor of installing the first GAF Glenwood™ roofing system. Aside from being a GAF Master Elite Contractor™ and a GAF President’s Club™ member, we were selected to perform this task due to our Illinois location and pedigree in dealing with designer composite shingles and real cedar shake shingle. This collection seeks to mimic the look of shake roofing via its thick texturing, rustic colors, and shape displacement.
Please watch the videos below to learn more about the roof installation and this amazing new line on lifetime designer shingles from GAF. Please look below to learn even more about the Glenwood shingle series.
