IKO Cambridge Shingles in Edmonton
IKO Cambridge is an architectural asphalt shingle with FastLock® sealant, a Class 3 impact rating, built-in blue-green algae resistance, and a limited lifetime warranty — a cost-effective, durable choice for Edmonton’s climate.
What Cambridge Is — and Who It’s For
Cambridge is IKO’s architectural workhorse. Built in IKO’s True Square® Advantage size — larger than many competing shingles — it offers dimensional curb appeal, a fibreglass core, FastLock® bonding to resist lift, and built-in blue-green algae resistance to keep the roof looking clean.
It’s a popular, value-focused choice for Edmonton new builds and re-roofs where homeowners want the laminated, architectural look and a lifetime warranty without designer pricing.

Why Cambridge Works in Edmonton
Cambridge’s fibreglass-reinforced, flexible asphalt construction handles Edmonton’s freeze-thaw swings, while FastLock® sealant helps the shingles bond against wind — with a high-wind application available to reach a 130 mph warranty. The Class 3 impact rating adds hail resilience, and the algae-resistant granules keep north-facing slopes from streaking.
