TAMKO HERITAGE - Manual (Page 2)

With two simple cuts, you can create five courses out of three Heritage shingles with no
waste. Fewer cuts mean labor savings and faster application. The TAMKO method also
eliminates unsightly zipper patterns. And because you can work any piece over 8” long
back into the field of roofing, you’ll save money on materials. For the best-looking roof
with the least waste, rely on TAMKO and the Heritage Series.
Cut your first shingle to make a 29” and a 10 3 /
8
”
length. Cut a second shingle to make a 23” and
a 16 3 /
8
” length.
1.
Begin application with a full-length
shingle. Then lay your 29”, 23”, 16
3 /
8
” and
10 3 /
8
” lengths. As you can see, three shingles
with two cuts make five courses.
2.
Continue working your way across the
roof. When you make your final cut at
the roof’s edge, flip any pieces that are 8”
or longer back onto the roof. These pieces
can be worked in anywhere without
creating zippers or color variations.
NOTE: Do not align joints of shingle
courses when working in cut pieces. Joints
should be no closer than 4” from one
another.
