Wood Roofs

Cedar Wood Roof ShinglesRed cedar is the most regularly used wood in North America for the purpose of roof shingles and shakes. Cedar shingles are sawn from wood blocks. They are tapered and generally have a smooth surface. Cedar shakes are split from wood blocks; they are less uniform in thickness than shingles, are sometimes grooved, and often have little taper.

The most important property to consider when buying cedar shingles and cedar shakes is durability, and its resistance to decay. Red cedar has a natural durability and that makes it the most regularly used wood for shingles and shakes and is the only wood product we will install.

Our cedar roofing offers you:

  • Elegant Look – natural honey and cinnamon tones of cedar wood, which later mature to a seasoned and distinguished-looking silvery gray
  • Practicality – excellent insulation means cooler temperatures inside in the summer and warmth in the winter
  • Durability - wind and moisture resistant

Depending on the details a red cedar roof typically costs more then most other roofing systems.
