IKO: Shingle Manufacturers From Calgary, AB

We hold ourselves to a high standard of workmanship at C&M Roofing, and the products we provide need to uphold this standard as well. IKO shingles have proven to be some of the best quality shingles available, so we got certified as an IKO preferred contractor to offer the best options for our clients.

High Quality Shingles Built for Drastic Weather Conditions

IKO shingles are made in Calgary, Alberta. From this geographic location, they see a lot of the same weather systems as our clients in Lethbridge and occasionally the storms that hit our clients in the Kootenays as well. This is clearly advantageous for IKO, as they have learned to produce products that withstand the drastic weather conditions in these regions and elsewhere. 

3 IKO Products We Recommend

IKO shingles are offered in four main categories: performance shingles, designer shingles, architectural shingles, and traditional shingles. From these categories, we have found three standout products that give our clients the best results. 

Dynasty

Stars of IKO’s performance range, IKO Dynasty shingles offer reliable protection from drastic weather and the peace of mind that comes with it. They are rated with Class 3 Impact Resistance due to their heavy-weight construction and thick coating of weathering asphalt. Their wind rating holds up very well in Lethbridge, which arguably means they can hold up anywhere. 

Clients also appreciate the wide range of colour options that Dynasty shingles come in, and that the end results look sharp and polished. IKO Dynasty shingles are our most popular products, along with Owens Corning shingles (which we’re a preferred contractor for, as well). 

IKO Dynasty Colours

Nordic

Another standout from the performance range, IKO Nordic shingles are among the best-functioning shingles available. They offer a Class 4 Impact Resistance rating and offer warranty coverage for winds up to 210 km/h. This rating is thanks to the superior construction and materials that go into the design.

“Their fibreglass mat has an extra-thick coating of Polymer Modified Asphalt, embedded with blue-green algae-resistant granules.” — IKO 

This 50-year, high-performing shingle is priced well for all that it offers, making it a popular choice among our clients. 

Cambridge 

General contractors commonly opt for the Cambridge shingle, a great option in IKO’s Architectural range. They’re an affordable choice that gives durable protection from the elements. Cambridge shingles are manufactured with a fiberglass mat that’s coated with weathering asphalt and surfaced with coloured granules. The result is a heavy-duty shingle that gives exceptional durability and structural integrity.

Like the Dynasty and Nordic shingles, they’re available in a wide range of colours to enhance the look of homes and buildings. 

Dynasty, Nordic, and Cambridge shingles are all manufactured in IKO’s special “Advantage” size, which gives larger exposure and a dramatic look.

What’s Involved in Being a Preferred Contractor?

The IKO preferred contractor program is called the ROOFPRO program. Roofing companies and contractors must become certified as a ROOFPRO Contractor by meeting certain requirements, like submitting their licences, WCB insurance, and other specifications. They must also be in business for at least two years to be certified, and have an established reputation.

The result is a company you can trust to install IKO products and access to an extended Iron Clad Protection Period limited warranty.
