IKO Royal Estate colors
The 4 colors IKO lists for Royal Estate. The swatches are our own drawings, an impression of each color's tone, not a photo or a color match: granule blends look different in sun, shade and on a whole roof. Look at a real sample board, and a house near you with the color on it, before you choose. IKO says product and colour availability may vary by region; its page checks colours against the ZIP code you enter.

What a IKO Royal Estate roof costs
Our quote engine's price for a roof of premium designer shingles at a 6/12 pitch, old layer torn off, at US-average roofer wages. The roof is bigger than the house: the pitch adds about 12% to the footprint.
| House footprint | Roof | Installed |
|---|---|---|
| 1,500 sq ft | 16.8 squares | $12,600–$14,500 |
| 2,000 sq ft | 22.4 squares | $16,600–$19,100 |
| 2,500 sq ft | 28.0 squares | $20,600–$23,800 |
The engine prices premium designer shingles as one class, not by brand, so these figures are the same on every line of that class we cover. Within the class, roof size, pitch, tear-off and local labour move a price far more than the label on the bundle; what Royal Estate costs your roofer depends on their supplier, so ask for it by name. Prices in your state: roof replacement cost by state.

The engine prices premium designer shingles as one class, not by brand: a roofer's price for Royal Estate depends on what their supplier charges them for it, so ask for it by name.
What colors does IKO Royal Estate come in?
IKO lists 4 colors: Harvest Slate, Mountain Slate, Shadow Slate, Taupe Slate. Availability varies by region, so check with a local roofer or IKO before you settle on one.
Is IKO Royal Estate impact resistant?

What wind speed is IKO Royal Estate rated for?
110 mph standard; up to 130 mph (High Wind Application (six nails)), per IKO's own pages. Higher wind warranties usually need extra nails per shingle and the manufacturer's starter and ridge shingles.

Limited Lifetime, with Iron Clad Protection, 15 years. After the non-prorated period, a manufacturer's warranty usually covers a shrinking share of material cost and rarely labour; see our shingle warranty guide.
