Been thinking about getting IKO shingles, but um, what if something goes wrong down the line and you actually need to use their warranty? Anyone had experience dealing with them when things didn't exactly go as planned?
I've inspected quite a few roofs with IKO shingles, and honestly, warranty claims can be tricky regardless of brand. I've seen homeowners struggle with fine print or proving installation was done exactly per guidelines. Maybe focus more on installer reputation than just the warranty itself?
Warranty claims can definitely get messy, especially if the manufacturer decides to nitpick installation details. I've found that even reputable installers sometimes overlook minor things that void warranties—like ventilation specs or nail placement. One thing I'd suggest is documenting installation thoroughly with photos and notes. Has anyone here successfully navigated a warranty claim with IKO or another brand by having solid documentation handy? Curious if that made a difference...
I've never personally dealt with IKO, but your point about documentation is spot-on. Had a warranty issue with another brand once, and the photos saved my bacon. Manufacturers can be picky, but solid evidence makes it harder for them to wiggle out. Good luck navigating that maze...
