The Best Roofing Choice for a Rustic Touch
Though Cedar roofs are becoming less common due to the growing popularity of metal roofing, Cedar still provides the best solution for homeowners looking for a rustic touch. Cedar roofing provides an increasingly unique aesthetic that many would consider being the crown jewel of their home’s exterior design.

Cedar Shake or Asphalt Shingles?
When most people think roofs, they think shingles. However, the cedar you see on roofs is most likely shakes, not shingles. Cedar shingles, which are often used on walls, are sawn on both sides, and thinner than shakes. Cedar shakes are thicker and split into one or both sides.
The Many Benefits of Cedar Shake Roofing
Cedar shake roofing provides a series of benefits beyond its aesthetic appeal, including:
-
Dimensional Stability: Cedarwood has an exceptional ability to maintain its original dimensions, regardless of humidity levels and climate. Cedar does not shrink, it will stay flat and straight, and it will hold fastenings.
- Elemental Resistance: Natural preservatives make cedarwood resistant to moisture, UV rays, insect damage, moss growth, and more.
- Strength: Cedar is one of the strongest woods and roofing materials. Cedar is unlikely to break and will improve the structural integrity of your roof.
- Insulation: Cedar is a natural insulator. These properties help your home stay warm in the winter and cool during the summer - and help save you money on heating and cooling.
