Fast Facts About Cedar

Cedar wood has been used as a reliable roofing material for over a hundred years. It’s reputation for beauty, value, and durability has caused a recent increase in popularity over the past few years. Cedar has many qualities including:

  • Natural beauty: No two houses will ever have roofs that look exactly the same thanks to the color variations that are present in cedar shake and shingles. This naturally variated and warm color palette complements most colors of siding and home exterior with ease.
  • Durability: A cedar roof can out last an asphalt roof easily by decades if cared for properly. With a higher rating against wind, storms, and hail damage, cedar has proven itself to be a sturdy alternative to the thinner and weaker asphalt shingles that are on the market. It’s oils also naturally deter insects from nesting in your roof!
  • Value: Some homeowners can experiences sticker shock when looking at cedar roofs. However, as the unique look of cedar will increase curb appeal and the durability of the roof will impress home appraisers – a cedar roof is actually an investment. Add in that cedar’s natural insulation properties are energy efficient and can save you money on your heating and cooling bills, and you can start to see how investing in a cedar roof is not as pricey as first it first appears
