GAF Sienna(TM) Lifetime Designer Shingles Featured on the All-American Cottage


WAYNE, NJ – GAF, North America's largest roofing manufacturer, is proud to have been featured on The All-American Cottage, a 2,900-square-foot classic style home at Ruskin Square in Greenville, South Carolina.



Sponsored by Southern Living and This Old House, the exterior of the home features LP siding on a brick foundation, and approximately 97% of the products used in construction were made in the United States. Exterior finishes include GAF's Sienna™ Lifetime Designer Shingles installed by Allcon Roofing.  The home was included in the print and web pages of Southern Living and This Old House magazines.



Sienna™ Lifetime Designer Shingles introduce a unique diamond-shaped design with artisan-crafted shapes and a dimensional look that provides a refined beauty unmatched by typical shingles. Their rich appearance and clean lines add distinction to any home—at a fraction of the cost of traditional slate or wood shakes. Sienna™ Shingles offer Old World elegance and are available in four custom colors. As with all options in the Lifetime Designer Shingles Value Collection, Sienna™ is a luxurious and affordable alternative to standard architectural shingles.



All of GAF's Lifetime Shingles incorporate GAF's proprietary Advanced Protection® Technology, which results in shingles that offer improved performance—including superior durability and wind resistance—while reducing the use of precious natural resources. The use of GAF's Dura Grip™ Adhesive means that each shingle is sealed tightly and there is a reduced risk of shingle blow-off.  As with all GAF Lifetime Shingles, they pass ASTM's two toughest wind tests, ASTM D3161 Class F 110 mph and ASTM D7158 Class H 150 mph, and carry GAF's Lifetime limited warranty.
