"Garbage warranty"
Shingles are 5 yrs old and 50-75% of granules are off of most shingles. Contacted them and they said after Mom passed the warranty was not transferred within 30 days. Really!?!? 5 years into a 30 year shingle and you are not willing to back your product. So your company motto is put out junk and screw the people. You should be ashamed and embarrassed. How do you sleep at night? Oh I know…. Tamko makes money and lots of it off people who install their products. Tamiko will always find a way to not honor their product warranty. Who cares who is the owner of the house? The warranty should stay with the house not the owner once installed. Rotten business. Fo not install Tamiko shingles.

"Roofers/ Buyers beware, read warranty first. Not good"
New construction 2017. Home purchased Jan 2019. After 15 months, TAMKO shingles had some loss of granules. After 6 years, 40-60% loss of granules with fiberglass layers exposed and fading on TAMKO shingles. Contacted the TAMKO warranty department. TAMKO warranty rep stated the shingles won't be covered under their warranty because the transfer of warranty wasn't done within 30 days. This TAMKO shingles product is horrible, doesn't last, fades, and is not worth installing. My opinion, TAMKO hides behind a weak warranty (must read) and doesn't stand up for their product, scruples or integrity. This is obvious considering they've had a class action lawsuit for this same TAMCO product.

"30 year means less than 12 years"
I have to do a full re-roof as the Tamco Heratige 30 year shingles have NO aggregate left on them in many places. The roof is very slippery with all the loose aggregate where it is left, which tells me those shingles will soon be bare also. My roof lasted less than 12 years! Don't buy TAMCO!

"Shingles"
I am having horrible granular loss on a 6 year old roof, and since I bought the house from someone 1 year after it was built, I am not covered under the warranty. Customer service was no help. Very disappointing.

"Horrible Product!! Avoid!"
I had a roofing contractor put Tamko SA Base on my porch roof. I will never use them again. The Tamko roofing is literally melting away! Three years after the installation the adhesive is leaking out from under the roofing dripping black tar like gook all over my new aluminum fascia and patio pavers. Half of my patio is unusable and basically destroyed! The contractor said they cannot process the claim because Tamko requires the customer to file the claim despite the roofing contractor having all the necessary paperwork! Tamko goes out of their way to make the claim process impossible! I was determined though and gathered every required piece and sent the entire package to the company. I have not heard from them since despite numerous emails asking for a status. Tamko makes garbage products and does not stand behind their products at all! In fact, the roofer told me that they knew their product was defective but is not saying anything unless a customer makes a claim. Of course my roofing contractor did not tell me either.Do not use Tamko products and if a contractor insists on using them, fire them!!

Review:
"Warranty"
We had these installed on our house in 2018. Says lifetime limited warranty. We had a few shingles blow off our house in 2019. Sent in samples and took pictures, and they paid the claim. Great. Jump forward to now, we did the same claim and sent in the samples, on our dime. This time, they refused the claim and said the shingles were initially installed incorrectly. BS. Now, I have to get a new roof put on since more shingles have come off, since I filed my claim. Terrible product. Horrible warranty.

"Terrible experience"
I'm a builder. My new roofing contractor told me he likes Tamko. I gave them a try on my own home. They looked great until four years later when I got on the roof to inspect before solar. Fiberglass was showing on all areas of the roof. Tamko warrantees, but doesn't pay for anything other than shingles and a modest price for labor. I picked up the rest of the tab for underlayment, drip edge, vent cap, dump fees and additional labor. needless to say, I'm not putting Tamko back on. I don't want to take new solar panels off again in 4 years.

"20 Years on a 50 Year Warranty"
Paid $50,000 for a metal shingle roof with a 50 year warranty in 2003. Started experiencing leaking problems in 2021. Filed a warranty claim with Tamko, which was denied because shingles were "installed improperly." The shingles were purchased through an authorized distributor, who recommended the roofing contractor to install them. I am not sure how a consumer can do anything more to ensure a properly installed roof. Do not purchase metal shingles from Tamko!

"Terrible warranty service"
We had to have our TAMKO shingles replaced and received a "warranty" replacement. What they don't tell you is the ridge shingles, which are also TAMKO are not covered. There product is faulty but you will pay for the labor to tear off and any materials that are not shingles. I wouldn't have to tear off if there shingles weren't faulty. Terrible product and terrible warranty. I would not use there product ever again.
