Top 2% of Roofers in North America
Why Us
GAF’s Master Elite certification is one of the most prestigious honors in the roofing industry—awarded to only 2% of roofers across North America. In this article, you'll learn what this designation means, how a contractor qualifies, and why it matters for homeowners looking for superior quality and peace of mind.
Why GAF Master Elite Certification Matters
There are several ways to determine if a roofing contractor in the National Capital Region is right for your project. If they’ve been in business for over ten years, take the time to educate you about your roofing system, and offer a clear, written warranty—you’re off to a great start.
But if you want to be sure you're hiring the absolute best, look for a contractor with GAF’s Master Elite status. Only 2% of roofers in North America meet the strict qualifications, and Firon Roofing is proud to be among them.
Licensed, Insured, and Responsible Roofers
Many assume all roofers are licensed and insured, but that’s not always the case. To achieve Master Elite status, contractors must carry a minimum of $2 million in insurance, maintain WSIB coverage, and conduct both classroom and hands-on training regularly.
This ensures that when you work with a Master Elite roofer, you're partnering with a responsible, well-managed business.
Years of Experience You Can Trust
GAF requires at least seven years of operational experience for Master Elite contractors. This requirement ensures that certified roofers are not fly-by-night operations.
Firon Roofing opened in 2008, far exceeding that threshold. Our longstanding presence in the industry means we’re here for the long haul—giving both GAF and our clients peace of mind.
Exceptional Customer Satisfaction
One of the toughest hurdles to becoming a Master Elite contractor is maintaining a 99% customer satisfaction rate—measured directly by GAF, not just public reviews.
GAF follows up with every roof replacement customer from the past year. If fewer than 99 out of 100 would recommend the company to a friend, the application is denied.
At Firon Roofing, this level of service isn’t a stretch—it’s our baseline.
Commitment to Ongoing Training
Master Elite contractors are expected to stay current with roofing innovations and best practices. Firon Roofing holds weekly field meetings and participates in GAF factory training multiple times per year.
We believe in constant improvement. Our team is committed to mastering techniques, using the right products, and delivering top-tier work—every day.
