Hooey. If it's still in good shape it should be fine for at least another 5 years. And it could be fine for up to another 15 if it doesn't get weather damage. If you aren't having issues I'd leave it. Of course a roofer is going to say you need a new roof.

@@8356-4 You probably have a leak into your decking and your decking is rotted. The roofer may be correct. Also, I only see shingles lasting 12-15 years before patching is uneconomical and a roof replacement makes financial sense.
10 years is just a blatant lie and attempted ripoff. I have 30 year HD shingles from gaf that are just fine. If contractors had there way you would be replacing shingle every couple years
My 3 tab Owens Corning going on 30 years looks better than my neighbors 5 year old GAF architectural shingle roof. I'm shopping around now to replace a perfectly fine roof due to it''s age.

Mine is finally worn because of hurricanes. Also, OC is known for being the manufacturer that honors its warranties more/better than any other. That, from roofers experiences stated on forums (which I am going crazy reading so many of them).
This is more and AD than a review, the audio was poor and mono channel. You never did show tar strip. The wind is not as important as debris that impacts the shingles
just got this timberline hdz installed on my roof today, does not look good as I expected. but after my research, with the contractor's opinion, the HD is much thicker than the HDZ and therefore provides much more protection. HDZ adds special coal that helps fight algae longer but trades off the thickness.
@@nanowar1192wow what the hell . In Canada we cant get timberline HD ANYMORE AN the ultra HDZ ARE 60+$ MORE PER SQUARE X 25 /30 /40 = wow 1200/2400 $ difference
I have had two GAF so-called certified roofers to my property. Both sucked. Neither could even tell me how they were going to configure air flow for 1/300 or 1/150. One, when I stressed the fact I needed that detailed information, said, to paraphrase: I'll have someone else come out and give you a quote. Really? So, why did I waste my time waiting for and dealing with him? Of, course, I never heard from him or the company again. NOTE to roofers: Looking at a satellite image, then going out and giving a so-called quote, is _not_ a valid quote! That's simply sales. NOTE to manufacturer certified roofers: Being certified by a manufacturer does not mean you can price gouge. Certification is for the client's benefit, for the client to (supposedly) know you can install the system properly, no mistakes, and so the client can get all the warranties. I have a third GAF certified company coming out tomorrow. I bet my c-note to your shiny penny the experience is about the same... bad. Bottom line, from what I have experienced: The more you know, the less they want to deal with you, because they cannot _just_ sell you a roof job, and price gouge, since the client has some knowledge, and wants fairness, honesty, and superb craftsmanship. BTW, I even wrote GAF corporate about my experiences, giving them much more detail, two weeks ago. No reply, whatsoever! If you ever call them, ask them about their/your local contractors, and see what they tell you. You will not like it.
Excellent video, great job!
Got a leak at 5 years . Waiting to see if GAF honors the warranty 12/24 .
I can tell Someone was smoking the magic dragon
I have a 10 year old HD Timberline Shingles. I was told by a roofer only good for 10 years? That its time for a new roof?

Free Advertisement?
That’s interesting to read because I did a roof 20 years ago with timberline and they still look new, mind you I’m in Ontario Canada.
Gee, this almost doesn't sound like an ad as opposed to a review.
I’m confused, is it supposed to be an ad or a review in the first place lol
bloke ol beeyoui said 120 wind rating
This is more and AD than a review, the audio was poor and mono channel. You never did show tar strip. The wind is not as important as debris that impacts the shingles
So what roof shingles do you have on your home?

I went Ultra HDZ, only another 1000
Owens Corning duration LOL

Timberline shingles suck
this is not a review but a ad .. I hope it was good because no one will trust you
Lame video. no details on the product. Lots of words but nothing useful. Marketing only nothing technical at all
more a GAF promo ad than a serious comparison review
Sorry but your audio is so bad I couldn’t watch this.
Fake news.
Audio was fine.
