IKO Roofing Company in Orlando: What to Know First

We repair, replace, and inspect IKO roofing systems throughout Orlando as an independent IKO service provider. Most IKO repairs run $425 to $1,475 depending on what failed, and we complete typical jobs in one visit because our trucks carry the common IKO part numbers instead of waiting on a distributor order. You’ll get a written price before we touch the roof. Call (850) 303-7235 and we’ll walk your roof, tell you what we found in plain English, and hand you a number that won’t change at the door.

This page is for Orlando homeowners who have IKO shingles or IKO roofing components, you’d be surprised how many people don’t actually know their brand until something lifts in a storm, and need a roofing company that doesn’t treat the brand as an afterthought. We’re Tilehurst Roofing Orlando, part of the Kingswell family of roofing companies founded in 2000. Greg Holloway runs our Orlando operation, and he’s walked hundreds of IKO roofs across this city.

Key Takeaways

• We’re an independent IKO service provider, not an authorized IKO dealer, so our recommendations are never tied to a manufacturer sales quota.

• Every repair carries a written guarantee, and if it fails inside a year, we return at no charge under the 365-Day Done Right Promise.
• We service all seven major shingle and roofing manufacturers, so you’re never locked into one house brand when replacement makes more sense than repair.
• A live person answers our phones 24/7, including weekends. No voicemail, no callback queue.

How IKO Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

IKO makes a solid shingle. We install and repair them regularly. But every product line has weak points, and Orlando’s climate, afternoon thunderstorms, brutal UV, humidity that never quits, finds them faster than most. Here’s what we see most often on IKO roofs in this market, and what we do about it.

• Cambridge architectural shingles losing granules too early. The Cambridge line, IKO’s most common architectural series in Orlando, sometimes sheds granules at an accelerated rate on south-facing slopes. That’s not a manufacturing defect in most cases, it’s UV and thermal cycling doing what they do. We inspect the affected slope, measure granule loss against IKO’s published tolerances, and either document it for a warranty claim or repair the localized damage before the mat starts to show. Once the fiberglass mat is exposed, you’re not repairing, you’re replacing.
• Nordic shingle sealant strips letting go at the edges. We regularly see IKO Nordic shingles, particularly on older installs, with edge tabs that never fully sealed or released after a few Orlando summers. Wind-driven rain then finds its way under the tab. The fix is usually a hand-seal with a quality asphalt adhesive rated for Florida’s heat. It takes an hour and costs far less than a leak investigation plus drywall work.
• Marathon shingles and high-nail problems. The IKO Marathon line, with its extra-thick profile, has a specific failure mode we see on Orlando homes: nails driven too high through the shingle, above the nailing strip. The shingle eventually tears loose in a storm. The repair is straightforward, replace the damaged shingles and check the surrounding courses for the same elevation problem. We see this often enough that our techs check nail placement as a matter of course on any IKO inspection.
• IKO’s hip and ridge caps lifting at the ridge line. Ridge caps take the most wind uplift on any roof, and IKO’s sealant, like most, weakens over years of thermal expansion. Lifting ridge caps are a common call after Orlando’s summer squall lines. We re-adhere or replace the affected caps, and if the underlying ridge vent or flashing shows wear, we address that in the same visit rather than coming back in six months.
• Flashing failures at penetrations that look like shingle failures. A lot of IKO roofs in Orlando get blamed for leaks that are actually flashing problems at pipes, skylights, or chimney bases. Older homes near the Milk District, where Greg has done plenty of inspections, often have original flashing that’s been caulked over repeatedly. We repair the flashing junction properly, replace the adjacent IKO shingles if they’re compromised, and clean the failed caulk out so the next repair isn’t built on a failed one.

A quick note on safety: none of these are jobs we’d advise a homeowner to attempt. Walking a roof, especially a steep pitch in August heat or after rain, and working with sealants and adhesives at height is genuinely dangerous. If you suspect any of these issues, call us. We’ll walk the roof so you don’t have to.

Our IKO Roofing Company Process

Every IKO job follows the same sequence, whether it’s a small repair near Conway or a full replacement in College Park. Here’s how it works with us.

1. 1
   You call, a person answers. Not a voicemail. Not a call center script. You’ll speak to someone at Tilehurst Roofing Orlando who will ask what you’re seeing and schedule a time that works for you, including evenings and weekends.
2. 2
   We walk the roof before we quote anything. Greg or one of our senior techs goes up, not a salesperson with a tablet and a drone only. We inspect the IKO shingles, flashing, drip edge, underlayment, and ventilation. You’re welcome to be there while we explain what we found.
3. 3
   We give you a written price. This is where we tell you the price before we touch the roof, quote Greg, and we mean it. The paper in your hand lists the exact scope, the materials, the labor, and the total. No “we’ll see when we get up there” pricing.
4. 4
   Parts decision: OEM or equivalent quality. For IKO repairs, we use IKO shingles where color and lot matching matter, and high-quality compatible materials where IKO doesn’t make a direct SKU for the repair. We always tell you which we’re using and why. Warranty-safe practices come first, if a repair technique could void the manufacturer’s warranty, we won’t do it that way.
5. 5
   The repair, done right the first time. Our background-checked, uniformed techs do the work, clean up every nail and wrapper, and walk the job with you before we leave.
6. 6
   Your written guarantee, in your hand. Before the crew pulls away, you’ll have a written guarantee on the repair. If it fails inside the guarantee period, we return at no charge under our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Not a promise over the phone. Paper.

What IKO Roofing Company Costs in Orlando

Here are the numbers we actually see on IKO work in the Orlando market. These are real ranges, not a teaser to get you on the phone.

• Minor IKO shingle repair (single tab re-seal, small section): $425 – $625
• Standard IKO shingle replacement (several damaged shingles, one slope): $650 – $950
• Repair including flashing work (penetration leak, ridge cap, edge sealant): $800 – $1,475
• Full IKO roof replacement (architectural shingles, typical Orlando single-family): $9,500 – $16,500 depending on square footage, tear-off, decking condition, and ventilation work

What moves the price: roof pitch, number of stories, how much decking needs replacement, whether the old underlayment is shot, and whether you’re matching an IKO color that’s still in production or one that’s been discontinued and requires a close-compatible substitute. We’ll walk you through all of it in the written estimate. Call (850) 303-7235 to schedule a free estimate, and you’ll be looking at the same numbers we are.

Why Orlando Homeowners Call Tilehurst Roofing Orlando for IKO Work

Most of our customers have been through it before, a contractor who no-showed, or changed the price at the door, or did a repair that failed before the season was over. We built Tilehurst Roofing Orlando specifically for those homeowners. The Kingswell Way is how we work: say the price before the work, show up in the window we gave, leave the place cleaner than we found it, put the guarantee in writing, come back if it fails. That last part has teeth, the 365-Day Done Right Promise covers every repair for a full year.

We know IKO products, but we don’t carry a single house brand. Our trucks are stocked across seven manufacturers, GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral, because the honest answer is sometimes “this roof should not be repaired with the same product again.” When replacement is the right call, you’ll have genuine options, not whatever happens to be in the truck. Greg Holloway and his crew have put years of work into Orlando roofs, including older bungalows and flat roofs near the Milk District, where the job keeps you honest. Call (850) 303-7235 and you’ll reach a live person who can schedule your free estimate.
