Associa & GAF Partnership Provides Full Line of Ro

PARSIPPANY, N.J., Jan. 5, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Associa , the industry's leader in community association management, proudly announces its partnership with GAF , North America's largest roofing manufacturer. Associa-managed communities throughout the United States and Canada now have access to this preferred partner program that connects them with a GAF Master Elite® or Master Select® Contractor for their roofing job. Because of the stringent standards GAF factory-certified contractors have to meet, less than 2% of all roofing contractors have qualified as a Master Elite® Contractor and less than 1% of all roofing contractors have been awarded Master Select® Contractor status. This partnership gives Associa access to a comprehensive portfolio of steep- and low-slope roofing systems from the largest roofing manufacturer in North America, GAF. "Everyone knows that GAF products are of the highest quality, and we are excited to be able to offer them to our managed communities at a fair price," says Associa Advantage President Jennifer Shannon. "We pride ourselves in delivering unsurpassed service to our customers, and presenting the GAF brand reinforces our dedication to that promise."
