GAF Architectural Shingle Failure Investigation

Migliaccio & Rathod LLP is currently investigating premature failures in GAF architectural asphalt shingles, which were marketed as “lifetime” roofing products with enhanced durability and adhesive performance. Homeowners across the country are reporting shingle slippage, delamination, and early roof failure, sometimes just months after installation.

Misleading Durability & Warranty Claims

GAF and other manufacturers promoted these shingles as featuring strong factory-applied adhesive strips designed to bond securely and last for decades. However, numerous reports suggest that these adhesive strips may fail to seal properly, leading to:

  • Shingle slippage, exposing underlayment and nail lines

  • Water intrusion into attics and wall cavities

  • Interior damage to ceilings, insulation, and drywall

  • Premature roof replacement requirements

Despite offering warranties ranging from 25 to 50 years, many homeowners allege that claims are denied, often citing improper installation or external factors rather than product defects.

Reported Incidents & Financial Burdens

Consumers and roofing professionals have reported:

  • Multiple GAF roofs needing full replacement in the same neighborhood

  • Homeowners incurring $8,000–$15,000 in out-of-pocket roof replacement costs

  • Limited or no manufacturer support, despite ongoing failures
