Cedar shingle roofs, also known as cedar shake roofs, are an age-old roofing method. Cedar shakes” are known for classic authentic appearance. The timeless appearance is popular on restored homes as well as new modern house roofs.
Cedar shakes are naturally insulating – providing up to twice the insulation as asphalt shingles!
Cedar shingles resist strong winds, heavy rain, hail, snowstorms, and other severe weather. When installed and maintained properly cedar shingle roofs can last up to 50 years or more.
We use copper flashing at places where the roof goes around a chimney and adjoins other walls.
The flashing diverts water and seals of the roof especially in valleys and skylights that are crucial to seal off properly.
The copper is naturally stain resistant and adds stain protection to the surrounding cedar shake shingles.
We provide Cedar Shingle Roofing to Lancaster, Chester and Berks counties.
