Cedar Shingles and Shakes

Cedar - The Classic Choice for Beauty and Style

Cedar shingles and shakes are the roofing of choice for many applications - their warm, organic look and texture sets off many styles of architecture, and they only get better with age!

We use the finest Western Red Cedar shingles and shakes fro our roofing and re-roofing jobs, to provide our client's homes with years of beautiful protection.

Shingles and Shakes - What is the Difference?

The basic difference between cedar shingles and cedar shakes is that shingles are sawn, which produces a more regular, uniform product, suitable for a more formal, urban style of home.

Cedar shakes, on the other hand, are split from the stock, which produces a more rough, rustic finish, perfect for the lodge, or pole house style.

Within these two basic classifications, we offer a few variations in style and contruction:

Red Cedar Shingles

This type of smooth sawn architecturally uniform cedar shingle is preferred for its natural and tailored appearance and is used on traditional and modern residential and non-residential structures.

Handsplit and Resawn Shakes

This high quality shake features a rough split face and sawn back. Popular on traditional, ranch, historical and vacation homes or non-residential structures designed to blend with the natural and/or rustic surroundings.

Fire Retardant Cedar Shakes & Shingles

Permanent fire protection is provided by pressure impregnating fire retardant polymers into the innermost cells of cedar shakes for class C or B shake and shingle roof systems and class A shake roof systems.

Taper Sawn Cedar Shakes

Taper sawn sedar shakes fall between a sawn shingle and a split shake. Both surfaces are sawn but they are not precisely manufactured as shingles. With thicker butts, this product presents a more textured appearance.

Fancy-Butt Red Cedar Shingles

These specialty red cedar shingle products are used to provide a variety of designs that add charm and an immediate visual impact to exterior and interior wall surfaces and roofs.

Pressure Preservative Treated Red Cedar Shakes And Shingles

Thirty (30) Year Warranty - Long term protection from fungal decay is provided with factory pressure treatment of preservatives that will extend the life of cedar shake and shingle roofs
