TAMKO Building Products, a leading independent manufacturer of residential roofing shingles, is proud to announce that it has been named the exclusive recipient of Construction Business Review’s “Best Roofing Materials and Services 2026.” TAMKO was also named among the magazine’s Top Roofing Companies, reflecting its broader leadership in the industry.

Determined through Construction Business Review’s proprietary methodology, the recognition highlights a manufacturer that has stayed competitive by evolving alongside harsher weather, tighter regulations, and rising expectations for durability and design, rather than simply reacting to them.

“Being named Best Roofing Materials and Services reflects the standard we build toward every day,” said Chris Freeborg, Vice President and Chief Marketing, Communications & Product Development at TAMKO Building Products. “That standard is built around each and every contractor who relies on, and trusts, our products; products they can count on to help their business grow.”

Recognized for Real-World Performance

For TAMKO, that credibility rests on products that prove themselves under real-world conditions.

“Come hail or hurricane, it’s our utmost priority that the homeowners living beneath TAMKO roofs are protected from even the toughest of conditions. That starts with our commitment to engineering top-of-the-line products that are fully equipped to withstand the test of weather and time,” said Freeborg. “That commitment not only helps contractors build and protect their reputations, but also gives homeowners greater confidence that their families and homes are secure for the long haul.”

TAMKO builds for that scrutiny. Its TriShield™ technology combines advanced asphalt, fusion sealants, and superior lamination to resist granule loss, hold adhesion, and stand up to extreme weather. Titan XT® shingles, launched in 2021 with a 160-MPH wind warranty* and proprietary AnchorLock™ technology, set a new performance bar that more recent products have built on, including StormFighter FLEX® shingles and the HailGuard™ asphalt shingle system, backed by a hail warranty that was the first of its kind in the industry.

That confidence is earned in the field. Following severe weather, TAMKO collects contractor feedback to confirm its products perform as promised, giving contractors real-world results to stand behind when they talk to homeowners.

Built Around Contractors

The recognition reflects more than materials. Through The TAMKO Edge® program, the company offers training, process improvements, and one-on-one consulting designed to help roofing businesses grow, whether a contractor is moving from $1 million to $2 million in revenue or scaling past $10 million.

Products engineered to perform, paired with a program built to support the people who install them, is what positions TAMKO as a leader in the eyes of Construction Business Review: a manufacturer that understands the full ecosystem of contractors, homeowners, and distributors its products serve.

Award-Winning Quality Contractors and Homeowners Can Trust

The “Best Roofing Materials and Services 2026” recognition reinforces TAMKO’s long-standing commitment to quality, durability, and innovation. For contractors, homeowners, and distributors alike, it affirms that TAMKO offers more than shingles. It offers performance where it counts, backed by decades of expertise and a relentless focus on real-world results.
