Cedar Shakes vs. Cedar Shingles
While often grouped together, cedar shakes and cedar shingles differ in appearance and installation.
Cedar Shakes:
- Thicker and more textured appearance
- Hand-split or rough-sawn finish
- More rustic architectural character
Cedar Shingles:
- Smoother and more uniform appearance
- Machine-cut for consistency
- Cleaner, refined aesthetic
Our team can help determine which option best fits your home and design goals.
Protecting Your Cedar Shake Roof
Routine maintenance and inspections are important to maximize the lifespan of cedar shake roofing systems.
Common issues include:
- Split or cracked shakes
- Moss or algae growth
- Deteriorated flashing details
- Weather-related damage
Early repairs help prevent more extensive deterioration and preserve the appearance of the roof.
Repair vs. Replacement
Many cedar shake roofs can be repaired rather than replaced, depending on the overall condition of the system.
Repairs May Be Appropriate:
- Isolated damaged shakes
- Minor leaks or flashing issues
- Localized weather damage
Replacement May Be Needed:
- Extensive deterioration
- Widespread moisture damage
- Aging systems beyond practical repair
Our team evaluates the full roofing system to recommend the most effective long-term solution.
