Roofing
Mt. Tabor’s Building Professionals are Roofing Specialists.
The pros at Mt. Tabor Builders in Clear Spring, MD use top quality roofing materials, because they know a new roof is usually a necessity, not a luxury. That’s why they use GAF shingles.
Mt. Tabor’s professional installers help to alleviate the stress of making sure your home is protected by ensuring that you receive a high-quality product. After all, if you need a new roof, install one that will last through storms, wind, stand up to the sun, and that will last for as long as possible.
Our installers use the GAF Shingle System, because it is one of the best on the market. The system includes a high-quality underlayment for added protection between the wood sheathing and shingles. It also is a 6-nail shingle system. This 6-nail pattern allows Mt. Tabor and GAF to offer a lifetime warranty to withstand winds of up to 130 miles per hour.
No More Ugly Roof Stains
Another great advantage of the GAF Shingle System is that it is fungus-resistant. Not all shingle brands are made to be fungus-resistant, and the black streaks often seen on rooftops around the Hagerstown, MD area will not appear on the GAF Shingles. This discoloration, usually algae, can penetrate inferior shingles and cause decay of the product from within. And while algae can still form on tree sap and other natural elements that fall on a roof, GAF manufacturing techniques ensures that it stays on the surface of the shingle. This allows the algae and other dirt to be pressure washed away – without damage to the roof itself.

The GAF Shingles used by Mt. Tabor Builders come from the relatively-local GAF plant in Myerstown, PA, GAF’s most technically up-to-date plant. This ensures the highest-quality product that is made by the company is the one going on your home’s roof.

Our Clients Say...
Glenn M., Hagerstown, MD
“We had an old deck on the back of our house that was here when we moved in. It was past its prime and needed to be replaced. I’m not a fan of wood decks and based on the architecture of the house, we wanted a porch and patio that looked like they were original to the house not an add on.
“We made several inquiries to builders via the internet and cold calls. We decided to go to the home show and see who we could find. From the first contact with Mt Tabor, they communicated extremely well; were very punctual and organized and willing to do our project. I had a good feeling right from the start.
“They provided extremely good communication of when they would be on site and what exactly would be done. They accessed my property from the lower side, so as not to use my driveway and to minimize any burden due to construction. Also they used the cul-de-sac to stage the materials and equipment — even the Porta-Jon — with no impact to the neighbors.
“I was pleasantly surprised by how well Mt Tabor communicated throughout the entire project and how well the finished product looked original to the construction of the house
“I had a vision for what I wanted and Mt Tabor absolutely made it come true. Our project was not just a conventional porch we also had a room (shed) built underneath the porch.
“We feel like we have more living space about eight months out of the year, more storage space and less maintenance.”
