Types of Cedar Roofs Roofs We Install

Cedar Shake Roofing

Synthetic cedar shake roofing, like its natural counterpart, is cut by hand, unlike most roofing which is machine-cut. Each piece is made individually, granting more variance to the pieces through a non-uniform style. In addition, synthetic cedar will not suffer the same wear-and-tear that natural shake would, allowing you to enjoy your roof’s look for longer. While this can greatly add to the aesthetic of your home, an experienced roofer must handle the installation. If done incorrectly, the different-sized pieces can open your roof up to gaps and leaks. We have installed many synthetic cedar shake roofs and will make sure your roof is water-tight and given the rustic look you deserve.

Specialty Cedar Products

At Shull Roofing, we’re proud to say that we offer DaVinci and DECRA products for your synthetic cedar needs. DaVinci offers products naturally modeled after cedar with a high fire rating, wind rating, and impact rating. In addition, State of the art UV stabilizers ensures the color you choose is long-lasting for the lifetime of the product. Meanwhile, DECRA offers high-endurance and energy-efficient products with an innovative stone-coating process to provide you with the finest tiles you’ll find anywhere.

The Pros and Cons of Cedar Roofing

Pros of Cedar Roofing

Curb Appeal: Cedar’s natural wood look makes it a unique and beautiful roofing choice.

Longevity: Proper care can ensure that your cedar roofing lasts for decades!

Weather-resistant: Cedar roofs require fewer repairs after inclement weather. They stand up well to heavy rains, strong winds, and other severe weather conditions.

Cons of Cedar Shingles

Drying Issues: Cedar roofing materials are made from trees, which leaves them more prone to drying out. This can leave your home more susceptible to issues like fire damage, cracking, and pest issues.

Expensive: Cedar is considered a high-end roofing option because of its natural variety, and as such, it is more expensive than other roofing materials.

Maintenance: To prevent moss and mildew buildup, cedar roofs will require more maintenance compared to other roofing types.

Cedar Roof FAQs

Does it cost more than regular asphalt shingles?

Cedar shake costs more than asphalt shingles, but this is due to the synthetic material and extra care required to install.

How many years will a cedar roof last?

Traditional cedar requires more care and attention than other roofing materials, but with proper maintenance, a synthetic cedar roof will last around 40 to 50 years.

What is the most durable cedar material?

Western red cedar is the most abundant type of cedar, and the most resistant to rot and decay. It has one of the longest lifespans of all North American softwood cedar trees.

They started early in the morning and by 3:15 they had stripped our roof, papered our roof and completely reshingled our roof. They did an excellent job of cleaning up afterwards also. Thanks Cory and your crew for such a fine job.Yes I would recommend Shull Roofing

Tyler made getting our roof replaced a breeze. He knew his stuff when it came to what it would take to fix the roof, and even contacted our insurance to make sure we got what we needed clearly communicated. I don’t recommend getting storm damage, but if you do, call Shull!

I recently used Shull for a roofing job, when I was trying to get a house sold so it was on a time crunch. They were able to not only work with me to get it done within the time frame so that we could close on time, but they also worked with the buyers so that they could get the color picked out and made sure they were getting what they wanted on the new roof. I reached out for a bid and they were there that day, which seems to be hard to find these days. Thanks for a job well done.
