If you believe your shingles were installed between July 1987 through 2005 in that states of Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Wisconsin, they may be part of a class action law suit. Signs of premature wear include: curling edges, granular loss and delamination (separation.) This applies to single and multifamily residential properties and commercial properties. I have a certified shingle master company that works directly with the manufacturer to recover your claim. If you are a home owner or a property manager and you believe you may have defective shingles please contact me and I will put you in touch with the right people.

Are you referring to Certainteed? If so, I have been on the list for updates, and believe another payout should be coming anytime now....

Renee: Do you happen to know if the payout is prorated for the length of time the old roof has been is service? Shingles dating back to 1987 would be at the end of their life cycle. Good information & post.

Hi Brian, thanks for asking...the contractor that I use received the following information directly from the manufacturer ten years and newer $40/sq and not prorated, eleven years and older $74/sq and prorated, but I would advise anyone to contact an expert in their geographical area. Take care.

Hi, I live in Michigan and we roofed our home about 13 years ago with shingles that we purchased from a small local lumber company. They have curled and lifted we were told that they were manufactured by a company in Canada that used a process to make them that did not work. I have been with Farmers Insurance for almost 30 years and never filed a claim on my homeowners. Consequently with the shingles curling they have refused to renew my policy. At this point in time I can not afford to reroof my home as I am unemployed and my husband lost his job and was off for almost a year. I would like to know who I contact to find out more about this suit against the company. Thank you

Hello, I had a house built in Twin Lakes, WI in 1995. My shingles are in terrible shape. They are curling, peeling and all the grit is coming off. I have tons of grit in my gutters continuously. How can I get info on the lawsuit? I'm not sure what manufacturer they are. Please help. Thanks, Mark

Hello, our house was built in 1997 in Garretson, SD. Our shingles are also horrible. They are curling, peeling and grit is coming off. We were told when we bought the house new, the shingles would last for 25 to 30 years. Please help direct us in the right direction.

Hello-I'm hoping you can help direct me for help; we had a brand new roof installed in September or October of 1997 following a house fire. The shingles are completely in need of replacement and we will soon need a brand new roof. Our problem is the company we used, Clarkston Roofing, is now out of business. We live in Clarkston Michigan. Any suggestions?
Thanks so much-
