The General’s guarantee is not only absolute; it is backed by a business operating the world’s largest roofing mills, and making one-third of all the roll roofing made in America. That's the guarantee behind Certain-teed Roofing of the General’s board of ert chemists. It is then given a harder coating of another blend of asphalts, This keeps the inner sat- uration soft, and prevents the drying-out rocess so destructive to ordinary roofing. fioofing is impervious to the elements only so long as the asphalt saturation lasts. CER- TAIN-TEED retainsits soft saturation, and is in good condition for years after the harder, drier kinds have become useless. CERTAIN-TEED is made in rolls; also in slate-covered shingles. There is a ?'pc of CERTAIN-TEEgD for every kind of build- ing, with flat or pitched roofs, from the largest sky-scraper to the smallest residence or out- building. CERTAIN-TEED is sold by responsible dealersall over the world, at reasonable prices. The guarantee is for 5, 100r 15 years, accord- ing to ply (1, 2 or 3). There 1s no evasion about 1t—no attempt to substitute a high- sounding something ‘“just as good.”” There is no substitute for a real guarantee. You get an absolute guarantee on CERTAIN- TEED because the General knows that no better roofing can be made. Its raw materials and method of manufacture are both certi~ fied by the General’s board of graduate chem- ists, and he knows he’s taking no chance in guaranteeing them to you. That’s what “CERTAIN-TEED” ‘means—certified and guaranteed. Experience has proven that the guarantee is conservative, and that CER- TAIN-TEED will outlast the period of guar- antee. The roofing felt, as it comes bone dry from ] e : the rollers, is given a thorough saturation of Investigate it before you decide on any type a special blend of soft asphalts, the formula of roof.
