"30 years and going!"
The shingles we have used have been up there for the past 30 years. The house itself is nearly 70 years old and we've yet to have even the most minor leaks. I am not a carpenter but I do know that shingles normally last 20 years maximum. The mileage of these shingles is nothing short of amazing. Eventually I may have to re-shingle the house and even if I pay somebody to do it, I'll provide the shingles and it will be Elk brand if I can find them in the area. To be honest, I barely even remember their color and only remind myself when I clean out the gutters every fall. Not a single one has fallen down that I've seen. Two years ago I helped a friend work on their roof and they ended up bugging me until I figured out what brand mine were. As I've had no problems, I have no real complaints.

"Elk shingles are the best"
I had Elk brand shingles put on my house 3 years ago. The shingles are very tough and sturdy. They are rated for 30 years and i believe they will probaly last longer than that. I am a former roofer so I know a little about a good product. I like that the tar strip on the bottom actually works like it is supposed to. If i had one complaint about the product it would be the price, but that could be the store I got them from. I have had no repairs as of yet, and I have been on the roof just to check it out. I would definently recommend them to a friend for the fact that they last and are very easy to maintain and repair if ever needed. On a scale from 1-10 I would rate them a 9. They are only second best to a higher quality Elk shingle.

"90% aspahlt loss on 30 year roof that is 16 years old"
I recently had my insurance ajduster inspect my roof and they indicated I have 90% granular loss on my shingles due to faulty product. I contacted GAF (they purchased Elk) today and as I am the second home owner they are denying any claim. So I am left with a roof that will leak and looks awful. I would never recommend utilizing GAF or Elk shingle.
