Providing Professional Solar Roof Work for Hagerstown and Frederick
Timberline Solar™ is made up of shingles, not panels or heavy tiles. These shingles are water-shedding, strong and warranted to withstand winds up to 130 mph. Rack-mounted solar installations—where the solar is separate from the roof—require the drilling of dozens of holes into the roof membrane. Any resulting damage related to those holes is not typically covered by roof warranties.
For homeowners who already know the quality of GAF roofing products, the Timberline Solar™ roof has the same wind and water-shedding warranty coverage as Timberline HDZ.
More homeowners in Hagerstown and Frederick are valuing the power of the sun through solar panel installation. At Home Source Roofing, we understand that when it comes to roofing work, the integrity of your solar panels is a top concern. That’s why we offer specialized services for the maintenance and installation of GAF Timberline Solar products. Our team has the knowledge and experience to carefully remove and reattach your solar panels during a roof replacement, ensuring a seamless transition and preserving the efficiency of your solar system.

Solar FAQ
Why are GAF Energy solar roofs my best option for solar?
Timberline Solar™, integrated solar roofing from GAF Energy, is the first true solar roof. It incorporates solar technology into traditional roofing materials and processes, and uses the world’s first nailable solar shingle, which lays flush against the roof deck, providing durability and protection that look great. With constant utility rate inflation, Timberline Solar™ was designed to be an affordable solar roofing option. If you’re using solar to power your home in lieu of electricity from the grid, your energy prices may be lower. This all means that your Timberline Solar™ roof could save you money, allowing those savings to offset the cost of your new roof over time. And with solar roofing becoming more popular, it could even benefit your home resale value.
How much does a solar roof cost?
Pricing of Timberline Solar™ for the average home varies based on a number of factors, including the size and slope of the roof, the shading around the home, and how much sunlight reaches the roof throughout a typical day. A Timberline Solar™ roof is designed to be affordable and is typically comparable to a new roof plus traditional rack-mounted solar. Timberline Solar™ is currently available for residential installation, and may be available for commercial buildings in the future.
What are the benefits of solar shingles compared to rack mount solar panels?
Timberline Solar™ is the first true solar roof on the market. It incorporates the world’s first nailable solar shingle, which roofers can install as easily as regular roofing shingles, with only a nail gun. The benefit of this roof-integrated solar system is its seamless, waterproof installation that mimics traditional shingle installation. With most residential solar systems on the market using rack mounted panels or tiles, these setups require specialized installation skills and structures that can require ballast and/or can puncture your existing roof with lag bolts. This could disrupt the waterproofing to your roof, possibly degrading your roof quicker. Plus, the smaller form factor of the Timberline Solar™ Energy Shingle (ES) as compared to a solar panel allows for installation on more complex roof shapes such as dormers or hipped roofs.
Are solar shingles as efficient as panels?
Due to the unique design of Timberline Solar™ as a complete roofing system, efficiency cannot be calculated in the same way as a traditional solar panel. The ES is made out of the same high-efficiency mono PERC cell technology found in Tier 1 solar panels, and depending on a home’s specific roof geometry, Timberline Solar™ may fit more kW per roof than traditional solar panels.
Does my solar roof come with batteries or grid connection?
Timberline Solar™ is designed to be operated in connection with the electric grid, and is compatible with many energy storage offerings on the market. AC-coupled batteries are designed to be added to existing solar installations at any time. Other energy storage systems may require unique equipment for existing solar installations. All options and features for energy storage are site dependent and unique to the particular energy storage system. Please verify with a licensed energy storage contractor in advance that the specifications are right for the installed solar components and the desired operation modes (backup, self-consumption, time-of-use load shifting, etc.).
What tax credits are compatible with GAF Energy Solar Roofs?
We encourage roofers and homeowners to consult their tax advisors on all available solar tax incentives.
Where is Timberline Solar™ available?
GAF Energy’s strategic rollout process is well underway, with the immediate goal to bring Timberline Solar™ to every state in the U.S. Our vision is energy from every roof. Our major markets right now focus on the Hagerstown and Frederick. Please contact us at www.gaf.energy/timberline-solar to find out if we are available in your area we may very well be! If you are not in an active territory yet, we can alert you when we open service in your region.
What is maintenance like on my solar roof?
Timberline Solar™ is warrantied for diverse weather conditions such as snow, rain, and wind, and the system is designed to require little to no maintenance. Seasonal rains should help keep the solar shingles clean of dirt and debris, but if not, homeowners can either gently rinse their shingles (only when they’re cool). Timberline Solar™ provides excellent, durable protection from the elements while generating reliable clean energy for the home. It’s a roof, with power added, designed to protect your home from leaks and other weather-related issues. Timberline Solar™ customers can monitor output and track their clean energy production by logging in to the GAF Energy customer portal. Solar roof monitoring puts data directly in customers’ hands and makes it easier to readily detect any issues.

I can’t say enough good things about Home Source Roofing. From start to finish, they handled everything with professionalism, transparency, and persistence.
At first, my insurance company claimed there … More was no damage to my roof. Home Source didn’t accept that answer. They took the time to properly document the damage, communicated directly with the insurance company, and fought on my behalf until the full roof and shed roof were approved. Without them, I would have been stuck paying out of pocket for something that should have been covered.
Their communication throughout the entire process was excellent. I always knew what was going on, what the next step was, and what to expect. They were responsive, patient, and genuinely had my best interest in mind.
The install itself was flawless. They upgraded my home with a GAF HDZ roofing system that provides increased wind coverage, giving me peace of mind that I won’t be dealing with wind damage again in the future.
If you’re dealing with an insurance claim or just want a roofing company that will truly advocate for you, Home Source Roofing is the company to call. They don’t give up—and it shows.
Highly recommend! -
Ryan was outstanding from the start. Took the time to personally inspect my roof and made suggestions and options he felt would suit me. Ryan, Rene, and their crew did an exceptional job replacing the … More roof and gutters. Our home looks like a new house. When they were finished, cleanup was so good, you’d never know anyone was here. Home Source has my highest recommendation for anyone wanting a worry free roof replacement.

We had the best experience with Home Source Roofing. They turned a situation that we thought was going to be a nightmare to deal with into a pleasant surprise and upgrade to our house! We used them to … More get a new roof and all new siding after a bad wind storm. Our project manager Shane won us over at the first consultation with his honesty and commitment to our project. We ran into a few hiccups along the way (as is the case with any home renovation project), but our confidence never wavered that we chose the right company. Any concern was quickly eased because of the constant communication and attention to detail we received. We received a full gallery of photos and videos for the entirety of the project start to finish. This ensured we never felt left out of seeing the transformation even if we couldn't be home while they were working. I will be recommending this company at any opportunity and am very appreciative of all the hard work everyone put into making our home better than we could have imagined!

I possibly had a 30 year old roof. I was really concerned about having my roof done after all these storms and winter coming. Wasn't sure if I could afford it. I started talking to shane H. with home … More source and he took everything into his own hands. Came out to my house checked the roof called the inspector, came out to meet with inspector, got it all approved, communicated with me and my insurance and was here the day of install. Install took about 6 hours they even ran to the local hardware store to get plywood that needed replaced within that time. Pictures updated throughout the day while I was at work, no mess after I got home. The billing department easy to talk to and willing to work with you. Product and workmanship warranty, now just the feeling that I have one less thing to worry about . Thanks Shane and the rest of the team!

Top Notch Owner and Roofing Company! I don't write many reviews unless it's really deserving of my time to do so. And this one is. If you need a new roof or roof repair, I highly recommend Home … More Source Roofing to do the job. They are the best locally, several hands down!!! We had three other roofing companies come out to give us a quote on damage done to roof from one of the recent bad storms, and not one of those companies came close to being as attentive, professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to serving our needs in replacing our roof. We had the pleasure of working with Brandon (one of the owners) and he had our exposed areas on our roof and fascia temporarily patched beautifully in less than 4 hours of meeting him. His company facilitated the interaction with our insurance company for us, which was a total blessing. Brandon made a stressful situation an easy process. We thank God for him because we had no idea of how to handle roof damage due to a bad storm with our home insurance. His knowledge of how we needed to proceed made our experience so much sweeter. 🙌🏼 He is an upstanding business owner and expert roofing consultant that we genuinely trust. He cares about his customers and his employees. He showed as much pride in giving us a great roof as we would want for ourselves. Our roof looks beautiful!! Several neighbors have complimented us on it!!! 😄 We have referred this company to our family and friends and will only use them when our current roof needs to be replaced many, many years from now. If you need your roof replaced and want things to be done right, please do yourself a favor and give get the peace of mind you deserce by choosing this company. Honestly, you will be glad that you did. Keep up the great work Brandon and Home Source Roofing!!!🙌🏼👍🏼☺️
