Everywhere under the sun—
wherever roofs are laid
Certain-teed stands for these two things: ~A
- 1
Efficiency Economy \
CERTAIN-TEED roofing is the most efficient and econ
omical type of roof for factories, office buildings, farm
buildings, garages, etc., because the first cost is less than
that of metal, wood shingles, or tar and gravel. This is
particularly so now, because of the present high prices of
some of the materials. CERTAIN-TEED costs less to
lay than any other kind of roof. It will not rust, not
affected by fumes, gases and '’u coal smoke, etc.; it is
light weight and fire retardant. Every rain washes it clean;
and it does not melt or run under the hot rays of the sun,
nor can it clog gutters and dawn spouts.
Certain-teed
Roofing
is-the best quality of prepared roofing. It pays to get the best. The only
difference between the first cost of a good roof and a poor one is in the ma
terials —the labor, freight, etc., costs the same in bath. As CERTAIN
TEED Roofing is guaranteed for 5, 10 or 15 years according to thickness
'.(l, 2 or 3 ply) it will be in splendid condition years after a poor quality
auof has to be replaced.
For residences, S!aie Surfaced Asphalt Shingles have all the advantages cl
CERTAIN-TEED Roofing, plus artistic beauty; not bulky, and are uni
form in weight, quality and appearance. They need no paint, are pliab-e,
eliminate waste and misfits, cannot curl, buckle, rot or crack. Guaranteed
for ten years. Investigate CERTAIN-TEED before deciding on acy type
aaf roof. For sale by dealers everywhere.
