Supposedly IKO has fixed the quality problem with the Cambridge shingles, but it seems they didn't treat homeowners very well. QUESTION 2: My thinking: I would do the purchase from Home Depot myself. If I have a problem with the GAF shingles, I can go directly to my local Home Depot to discuss.
The vast majority of homes that were built in this area 15-20 years ago have the IKO 3 tab shingle which lasts about 12-17 years, some go bad in 10. CertainTeed shingles will last about 5 years longer. At one time that IKO 3 tab was a 15 year shingle then they changed it to 20.

None of the other homes in my neighbourhood (without IKO shingles) were damaged during the same storm.

The GAF Timberline shingles are made in the USA as well, but they have a much longer limited warranty than the Certainteed shingles. In my opinion, there is a difference between the two, even though they are essentially the same product. This is an older thread, you may not receive a response, and could be reviving an old thread.

Here in the Poconos, many of the homes built in the late 90's and early 2000's have been done with IKO shingles. After 12 years many of them have to be redone. They are curling and falling apart. I don't know if they are making them differently now.
