Do TAMKO shingles have a warranty?

Yes, TAMKO shingles do have a warranty, offering limited lifetime warranties and enhanced warranties when installed by certified contractors. TAMKO Heritage series architectural shingles carry a limited lifetime warranty that is defined as 50 years for original owner of single-family detached home, with prorated coverage thereafter, plus 10-year 100 percent coverage period for manufacturing defects. TAMKO also offers 10-year algae warranty that protects against black streaks caused by blue-green algae, and 15-year 110 to 130 mph wind warranty depending on model and installation with 4 or 6 nails. For enhanced protection, TAMKO offers extended warranty options when installed by a TAMKO Pro Certified contractor using TAMKO system components including underlayment, starter shingles, and ridge caps. The TAMKO Pro Certified extended warranty can provide up to 25-year workmanship coverage that covers installation errors, plus enhanced material coverage. TAMKO also offers transferability once within first 10 years. Warranty coverage includes manufacturing defects that cause leaks, but excludes damage from improper installation, inadequate ventilation, or severe weather beyond rated wind speed. To qualify for full warranty, shingles must be installed per TAMKO instructions with proper ventilation and registered within specified time. So yes, TAMKO shingles have competitive warranties similar to GAF and Owens Corning, though extended workmanship coverage requires certified contractor.
