Cedar Shingles

Beautiful, Functional, Protective, Durable.

While many roofing and siding materials have been proven to provide an adequate level of protection and style to residential and commercial structures, only a couple of roofing and siding types can match the character that cedar shingles give any structure. Other types of wood can be used for making shingles, but over the years, cedar has become one of the most common materials of choice. Cedar shingles are a smooth sawn, tapered and random width wood tiles used for roofs and walls. Cedar is one of the most durable type of wood that is also one of the easiest wood types to grow.

Cedar shingles provide a very high level of protection yet they have a unique look that is well-suited for old houses and buildings with specific styles. Unlike modern materials used for siding and roofing systems, cedar shake shingles are often used in construction or repair of homes and business establishments for aesthetic purposes. Apart from its curb appeal, many home owners opt to use cedar shake shingles even when other materials are available thanks to their durability, bio-degradable characteristics, low carbon foot print, impact resistance, and limitless design options, among many others.

Cedar Shingles for Homes and Buildings

Cedar shingle roofs will always have a minimum of three layers, (3-ply) exposing less than one third of the shingle length to the weather. This 3-ply application for a No.1 Blue Label has a centuries-long track record. Lower grades require shorter exposures to ensure a watertight roof. We always recommend using a No.1 Grade Blue Label shingle on all primary buildings. Cedar shingle are packaged with four bundles per roofing square – 100 sq ft (9.3 m2) – based on the maximum recommended exposure for each size/type.

These Western Red and Alaska Yellow Cedar roofing shingles can also be used on walls as is!
