Waco roofing questions.
How do I know if my Waco roof has hail damage?
Common signs: missing or curled shingles, granule loss in gutters, soft spots on shingle surface, damaged metal flashings, and dented gutters or AC fins. Most McLennan County hail damage is on the south and west-facing slopes. Glacier provides free post-storm inspections within 48 hours and documents damage for your insurance carrier at no charge.
Are GAF Timberline HDZ shingles a good fit for Waco?
Yes — GAF Timberline HDZ is our most-installed shingle in Castle Heights, Heritage, and across McLennan County. Class 3 impact rating, lifetime limited warranty, and our Master Elite contractor status means GAF backs the install crew not just the product. For homes with active hail claims, we recommend Class 4 IR shingles for the insurance premium discount.

What’s GAF Master Elite and why does it matter in Waco?
GAF Master Elite is the top tier of GAF’s contractor certification — fewer than 2% of GAF-certified contractors in North America hold it. The requirement set includes background checks, ongoing training, insurance verification, manufacturer-verified install quality, and customer satisfaction tracking. For Waco homeowners, Master Elite status means GAF backs the install workmanship for 25 years (Golden Pledge warranty) — not just the shingle product. Glacier holds Master Elite status, which is why we can register Golden Pledge warranties on Waco installs.
