Cedar Shake Roofs

Installing a Cedar Roof

Installing Cedar on the Hip

Cedar shouldn’t be relegated to lining the closet. It should be proudly displayed on your roof.  Whether you’re trying to maintain the historical integrity of the building or you just want a little more character on your house than your neighbor, cedar is a great alternative. Our craftsmen understand what it takes to install cedar on traditional lathe or over plywood with cedar breather. Hand-split or saw-cut, varied or uniform width, we’ll work with you to pick the cedar roof that is right for you and your building. When installed properly and in conjunction with the correct combination of metal flashings, valleys and ridge caps, your cedar roof should last well over 50 years.
