In the high-stakes world of roofing, longevity is everything. Asphalt shingles may all look similar on the surface, but what lies beneath separates the fleeting from the formidable. TAMKO Building Products’ Heritage® Series asphalt shingles are designed not just to impress at installation, but to hold strong for decades.
What makes a shingle last? It starts with structure. TAMKO’s laminated asphalt shingles layer strength and aesthetics into a single product. Each shingle is built with a fiberglass mat core that’s saturated and coated with weathering-grade asphalt, then topped with ceramic granules that provide UV resistance and color retention. This multi-layer system adds both impact resistance and style — no small feat in a market where curb appeal and performance are equally prized.
The Heritage® lineup has been redesigned with today’s toughest weather in mind. Featuring TAMKO’s proprietary TriShield™ technology, Heritage® shingles combine advanced asphalt formulations for improved granule retention, reengineered sealants that activate in cooler temps and a laminated core built for strength in extreme conditions. It’s a modern upgrade to a time-tested favorite, engineered to deliver lasting performance where it counts.
And when the weather turns harsh, that engineering pays off. Installed with TAMKO® starter shingles and hip & ridge accessories using the High Wind Application method, Heritage® shingles are rated for up to 130 mph winds. For even greater protection, TAMKO also offers Titan XT® for enhanced wind uplift resistance and StormFighter FLEX®, which delivers Class 4 impact-rated protection with flexible polymer-modified asphalt. Whatever the forecast, TAMKO’s premium shingles help keep the roof over your head secure.
Backing all this is TAMKO’s Limited Lifetime Warranty, including a 10-year Full Start™ period covering both labor and materials in full and a 15-year limited wind warranty. As TAMKO states, “Any style you choose, you’re covered!”
Of course, all shingles age. As TAMKO notes, “Shingles begin to age as soon as they are exposed to nature” and environmental factors vary by building. But smart design choices like laminated construction, enhanced nailing zones and protective granules go a long way toward delaying wear and extending roof life.
For professionals and homeowners alike, choosing the right asphalt shingle means looking beyond surface style. With the Heritage® Series, TAMKO offers a high-tech take on a classic product. One engineered to stand up to the elements and the years.
