solar's 1st 20-year energy production guarantee

It’s a roof.
With solar energy.
It’s that simple.


They say a technology has really arrived when it becomes seamless. When its engineering and integration are so advanced, it becomes simple. Introducing Timberline Solar™. A roof designed and developed to produce clean energy, while doing all the other things that roofs do so well. It’s really that simple.


Power and precision


Aesthetics are a cornerstone of our products. Our roof-integrated solar products have superior water-shedding qualities. And they’re installed by those who know roofs best, the world over: GAF-certified roofing contractors.

Sleek, low-profile, and precision-built, these are roofs neighbors will envy.


Learn more about our solar roof products


We sell two unique solar roofing products:

NEW Timberline Solar™: Our latest product offers a solar shingle roofing system designed and assembled in the United States. Available in select markets—with rapid expansion plans throughout 2022—Timberline Solar™ is changing clean energy adoption for homeowners.


GAF Energy DecoTech: This roof-integrated solar system leverages top-of-the-line sleek black solar panels that install similar to a skylight, a direct-to-deck solar option with a sharp look. With thousands of DecoTech solar roofs installed today, we’re thrilled to help homeowners save money on their electric bills and not compromise on waterproofing.

There’s no better time to go solar than when you’re getting a new roof.

The solar pays for the roof


GAF Energy solar can produce electricity at a lower cost than your utility company. The more you produce and use your own electricity, the less you purchase. Over time, GAF Energy solar may even pay for itself AND your new roof, via monthly electric bill savings and government incentives.


You may also get credit for solar energy you send back to the grid when your panels produce more power than your home uses. This could further increase your monthly savings.


Of course, savings will vary and are not guaranteed. Incentives and eligibility requirements vary and availability is not guaranteed.


With a GAF Energy solar roof, you’ll not only get a roof that’s durable and has curb appeal, it’s also financially smart, since you can save on your energy bills over time.


“With Resnick Roofing and GAF Energy, we had a clear sense that we would be working with good teams. It made the jump to solar easy when we needed a new roof.”

Denise K.
GAF Energy Customer Mars, Pennsylvania


We’ve got you covered


A GAF Energy solar roof makes it easy for you to choose a cutting-edge roofing option, one that is also reliable, certified by key testing agencies like UL to meet the highest standards.


Working with a GAF-certified roofer means you’re working with those who know roofing best–and you have the option to be covered under an industry-leading warranty.


This warranty is backed by our partnership with GAF, a company that has been in business for more than 100 years.



“The overall cost of my roof with the solar was surprisingly affordable and the financing they offered was very competitive. Having the same installer for both the shingles and solar simplified the installation process and eliminated the need for contacting multiple parties if any issues arise.”

Ryan B.
GAF Energy Customer Westminster, Maryland


Local choice, global impact

Clean energy is the new paradigm.

Austin Roofing Teaches Kids
By christine 28 Aug, 2023
Kids don't always know what they want to do when they grow up. We find that once someone gets into roofing they rarely leave the field. It is lucrative and does not require a college degree.
