In a marketplace dominated by a few household names, one brand quietly built a global reputation not with hype, but with substance, science, and sheer resilience. That brand is IKO — a fourth-generation, family-owned roofing manufacturer that’s engineered to outperform, outlast, and outclass.
At Whaley Construction Group, we’re driven by a single principle: what we install should protect your home the same way we protect our own. After years of testing and experience in Texas weather, we’re proud to recommend IKO shingles — especially their Cambridge®, Dynasty®, and Nordic™ lines — to discerning homeowners who want beauty backed by brute strength.
Founded in 1951 in Alberta, Canada, IKO began with one plant and a vision: deliver technically superior roofing materials without compromise. Over the next seven decades, IKO expanded across Europe and North America, building over 35 plants globally — and quietly becoming one of the most vertically integrated manufacturers in the world.
Unlike most competitors, IKO controls every stage of its supply chain — from sourcing limestone for granules to producing the asphalt binder itself. That matters. It means quality is not outsourced, diluted, or subject to market whims. It’s built in-house, from raw material to final shingle.
Here’s what sets IKO apart — and why it’s an exceptional choice for Texas roofs:
IKO’s ArmourZone® Technology, found in their Dynasty® and Nordic™ shingles, features a 1½" wide reinforced nailing strip that dramatically increases wind uplift resistance — up to 130 mph. That’s not just code compliance — it’s storm insurance you can see.
The IKO Nordic™ series is rated Class 4 impact-resistant, making it one of the toughest shingles available. For Texas homeowners dealing with hailstorms and heavy wind, this means real-world protection — and potential insurance discounts.
Aesthetically, IKO shingles rival the best in the industry. Their deep shadow lines, high-definition color blends, and granule uniformity create a luxury appearance at a competitive price point.
Popular IKO colorways in Texas include:
IKO doesn’t just sell you shingles — they back them with one of the most generous limited warranties in the industry, including:
It’s not just fine print. It’s a promise backed by process and performance.

In an industry flooded with options, IKO gives us — and our customers — something rare: clarity.

Very professional, knowledgeable. Young man at age assisted me but knew his stuff and made it easy for me to understand
I recently moved back into my childhood home and needed some roofing done. I reached out and ******* did everything I asked and more. I had plenty of questions and he addressed them all being making sure I was knowledgeable and comfortable until the completion of the project!
Whaley Construction Group made the whole roof replacement easy and stress-free. Great communication, fast work, and the roof looks amazing. Highly recommend!
Everything’s above board: licensed, insured, and built to last — exactly how it should be.
