Heritage Shingle Features
TriShield™ Technology
Heritage shingles are built with TAMKO’s proprietary TriShield™ technology — a three-part system that enhances durability through advanced asphalt formulation, premium fiberglass mat, and strong granule adhesion. The three layers work together: granules hold firm, sealant grips strong, and laminant maintains integrity.
Class A Fire Rating
Heritage shingles carry the highest fire resistance rating available (UL 790 / ASTM E108). This classification means the shingles are effective against severe fire exposure, providing an important layer of protection for your home.
Wind Resistance
Engineered to withstand wind speeds up to 130 MPH when properly installed with TAMKO’s recommended nailing pattern and sealant activation. Heritage shingles use an asphalt-based sealant strip that bonds the shingle layers together, helping to prevent wind uplift and blow-off.
Architectural Dimensional Design
Heritage’s layered construction creates a textured, dimensional appearance that adds depth and visual interest compared to flat three-tab shingles. The laminated design creates shadow lines and variation across the roof surface, mimicking the look of natural wood shake at a fraction of the cost and maintenance.

Heritage Shingles FAQ
Common questions about TAMKO Heritage shingles, the redesigned TriShield™ formula, color options, and warranty coverage.
01Are TAMKO Heritage shingles any good?
Heritage shingles have been completely redesigned with TAMKO's TriShield™ technology for enhanced durability and lasting protection. They deliver solid architectural performance — Class A fire rating, up to 130 MPH wind resistance, and a Limited Lifetime Warranty — at a price point that's accessible for most homeowners. For homeowners who want dependable protection without stepping up to the premium Titan XT line, Heritage is a strong choice.
02What's the difference between Heritage and Titan XT?
The biggest differences are wind performance (Heritage: 130 MPH vs. Titan XT: 160 MPH), impact resistance (Heritage: standard vs. Titan XT: Class 3), and the proprietary technologies built into each shingle. Titan XT includes AnchorLock reinforcement, Advanced Fusion sealants, and UltraMAX Weathering technology that Heritage doesn't have. If maximum storm protection is your priority, Titan XT is the better investment. If you want proven, dependable performance at a lower price, Heritage delivers.
03How long do Heritage shingles last?
TAMKO backs Heritage shingles with a Limited Lifetime Warranty. In real-world conditions, a properly installed Heritage roof should provide 25–30 years of performance, depending on weather exposure, attic ventilation, and maintenance. Regular inspections and prompt repair of any storm damage can extend that lifespan significantly.
04What Heritage colors are available in South Carolina?
Heritage is available in 6 colors, including popular options like Weathered Wood, Rustic Black, Oxford Grey, and Antique Slate. Color availability varies by region — contact us to confirm which colors are available for your project. We can show you samples during your free consultation.
