Review:
I have been a roofer for many years and I can tell you that 90% of the problems that people are reporting on here is not because the shingles are bad, its because your roof isnt properly ventilated. You have to have many soffit vents and either whirly birds or ridge vents for it to be ventilated right. Most ppl just have whirly birds or ridge vents and not soffit vents. If you dont have soffit vents the air cant circulate through the roof and out the whirly birds so if you think just putting whirly birds or ridge vents on your house will help you are very wrong. You have to have soffit vents. The reason why shingles curl up and start to become brittle before the 20 or 30 year warranty is because the shingles are getting too hot and you dont have the proper ventilation!

Review:
I purchased a house built in 2000, roof got damaged during storm Fay. Seal between shingles broke loose and debris was found under shingles all over roof due to winds of 75 miles per hour. Took me 2 years to take insurance company to court in order of replacing my roof shingles. I consider TAMKO shingles of inferior quality not suitable to roof not even a barn.

Review:
when the shingles were applied the edges were all sticking up, asked the roofer and he said they would lay down with the sun, never happened. They will not stay on the roof.

Review:
I had a roofer with 20+ years experience install Tanko three tab shingles. They were replacing the same brand and style that was 19 years old. Right away these shingles buckled and would not seal. I called Tanko and filed a claim. They are so good they told me over the phone the problem. After taking somewhat of a look at the pictures I sent they denied my claim. They said I should have reported the problem within a week of first seeing it. I waited 2 months because another roofer said the singles might lay down. I have spoken to people across the nation that Tamko has denied. The bottom line is they won't stand behind their produck. Beware.

Review:
I have Tamko shingles on my 12 year home. They have a 30 yr warranty. The south side of the home is completly ruined. The east and north side are beginning to show signs of bad roof in spots.I have had the builder here and four different roofers and they all say that it is a bad batch of shingles. The south side has been showing damage for a few years. Currently I am trying to get my home ready to sell. The roof is what is holding me back on putting it on the market.
