GAF Woodland

What This Service Involves

Woodland is part of GAF's luxury designer collection, engineered with a distinctive profile that captures the irregular, hand-hewn character of natural wood shakes. Its texture and color blends bring warm, organic appeal to Northwest homes set among trees. Unlike real shakes, it resists the rot, moss, and constant upkeep that plague wood roofing in our wet climate. The algae-resistant granules help keep streaking at bay under persistent overcast skies. It is ideal for homeowners drawn to a natural, woodsy aesthetic that complements Pacific Northwest landscapes.

Benefits

Hand-split wood-shake look without the maintenance of real wood; Warm, organic character that suits wooded PNW settings; Resists the rot and moss that damage true wood shakes; Algae-resistant granules for our overcast, damp climate; Luxury designer curb appeal that boosts home value

Our Process

1) Tear off the old roof and inspect the deck for moisture and rot; 2) Apply ice-and-water membrane and synthetic underlayment at vulnerable zones; 3) Install the Woodland shingles with varied courses to mimic natural shake randomness; 4) Cap ridges and seal all flashings and penetrations

What Affects the Cost

Roof size, pitch, and design complexity; Designer-tier shingles cost more than standard architectural; Labor for achieving a natural, varied shake pattern; Deck repairs uncovered at tear-off; Chosen color blend and underlayment upgrades

Best Time of Year

Woodland installs through most of the year, with dry summer and early-fall stretches best for clean handling and sealing.
