allseason Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 I am replacing the roofing on my current house. I would like any opinions as to the merits of Timberline vs. Tamko Heritage. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Fabry Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 Timberline Ultra HD is my shingle of choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bain Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 Tamko is more of a rapper than a singer. Even though he's a cheeseball, I'd go with Justin Timberline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 GAF is the old line best material and practice manufacturer there is, imho. Tamko....they're OK. Most of the time. There is the threat of a class action against Tamko, or there was anyway. Not sure where it is now. A few hundred bucks is all that separates them, so why not get the good stuff? I'd be more concerned with the design and material used for the IWS, valley liners, drip edge, and all the other stuff. I can notice a visual difference when I'm holding them or installing them, but once they're on the roof, I stop caring. Put them on a decent drained roof with the right details, they'll both look pretty good in 20 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Raymond Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 For underlayment I put Grace Select IWS and Rhino synthetic felt on my place. I could walk on the Rhino on an 8/12 pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
