GAF
GAF has made roof measurements immeasurably simpler. Their new QuickMeasure tool allows roofing measurements to be done aerially and with more accuracy and speed. Contractors enter the address on their phones or desktops and receive the details in about an hour for residential requests and less than 24 hours for a commercial request.

James Hardie Building Products Inc
This February, James Hardie Building Products announced several innovative products to improve the durability of your home. The Artisan Shingle resembles natural cedar shingles with the performance of fiber cement. Not only will they add beauty and simplicity to your roof, but they will also stand up to harsh weather throughout the years. They also unveiled the HardiBacker Cement Board with HydroDefense Technology. This is the first – and only – waterproof cement backer board in the industry. This new technology will “protect tile installation and wall cavities from moisture penetration” meaning less time spent applying a waterproof coating across the entire project.
