Cedar Roofing Shingles
Cedar roofing shingles provide superior weather protection while enhancing curb appeal for homes across North America. These durable, natural wood shingles are available in Western Red Cedar, Alaskan Yellow Cedar, and Eastern White Cedar varieties. Their smooth sawn finish offers a tailored aesthetic, with excellent insulation properties that keep homes cooler in summer and warmer in winter, reducing energy costs.
Hand Split Cedar Shakes
Hand split cedar shakes offer a rustic, textured appearance ideal for traditional or natural-looking roofing and siding applications. Crafted using traditional methods, these shakes preserve the wood's natural grain and character while providing exceptional durability against wind, rain, and UV exposure in diverse climates.
Tapersawn Shakes
Tapersawn shakes combine the rustic charm of hand-split shakes with the precision of machine-cut surfaces for a consistent, professional finish. Available in multiple grades and lengths, these shakes offer versatility for various architectural styles while maintaining cedar's natural resistance to decay and insects.
Ridge Cap Units
Pre-manufactured cedar ridge cap units provide a durable, weather-resistant solution for hip and ridge roof sections. Made from Number 1 grade cedar shingles, these caps ensure seamless integration with adjacent roofing materials while significantly reducing installation time compared to custom-cut alternatives.
Stainless Steel Fasteners
Corrosion-resistant stainless steel fasteners ensure long-term structural integrity for cedar roofing and siding installations. Designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, these specialized fasteners prevent premature degradation and maintain the aesthetic quality of cedar installations over decades of service.
