4 Reasons to Choose Cedar Roofing
Natural cedar roofing offers homeowners a blend of aesthetic charm, durability, and environmental benefits that make it a compelling choice for roofing. Here are four reasons why opting for natural cedar roofing might be the right decision for your home:
1) Aesthetic Appeal:
Cedar roofing exudes a timeless elegance and rustic charm that can enhance the curb appeal of any home. Its natural wood grain, varying tones, and rich texture create a warm, inviting look that complements both traditional and modern architectural styles. Over time, cedar develops a beautiful silver-gray patina if left untreated, adding character and uniqueness to your home's exterior.
2) Durability and Longevity:
Cedar is renowned for its natural durability and resistance to rot, insects, and harsh weather conditions. Properly installed and maintained cedar roofing can last for decades, often outperforming other roofing materials. Its natural oils act as preservatives, providing additional protection against decay and ensuring a longer lifespan compared to many synthetic alternatives.
3) Insulation and Energy Efficiency:
Cedar roofing offers excellent thermal insulation properties, helping to regulate indoor temperatures and reduce heating and cooling costs. Its cellular structure allows cedar shakes or shingles to naturally breathe, preventing heat transfer in summer and retaining warmth during winter. This natural insulation can contribute to a more energy-efficient home environment.
4) Sustainability:
As a renewable and biodegradable resource, cedar is considered environmentally friendly. It requires minimal energy to produce compared to synthetic materials, and its harvesting and manufacturing processes are typically sustainable when managed responsibly. Choosing cedar roofing supports sustainable forestry practices and reduces the environmental impact associated with traditional roofing materials.

I called The Shake Guys because I found some cedar shakes on the ground from the roof of the former White House Inn following a storm that occurred several weeks ago. I was totally impressed with Chad and all the members of the crew that came to do the repair. Their promise of calling back within 24 hours of my leaving my initial message actually happened! Chad came out the next day to review the storm damage. I was totally impressed by his attitude and work ethic about such a small job. The roof was repaired within 48 hours of my making the call! I would HIGHLY recommend Chad and The Shake Guys for any job large or small. Definitely a 5 star company! A job well done!

Shake Guys is the company to call for a Cedar Shake roof replacement. They are very professional from start to finish.
The installers cleaned up daily, and did a beautiful job with our new roof. Our salesman Mike Nelson is second to none. He went beyond our expectations to help us with our insurance company. His knowledge of cedar shake roofing sold me on your company. The fact that he helped us tremendously through the process, was a big bonus. Well done Mike, well done Shake Guys

We had our roof, gutters and skylights replaced by Shake Guys Roofing and couldn’t be happier. We have a fairly complicated roof with high pitches. The work done was really a work of art. Chad and the construction crew were highly professional, respectful, friendly and did the work extremely well, and had prompt follow ups. They were very responsive to emails as well as calls, and thorough in the job that they did. We highly recommend their services!

Shake Guys is a terrific team very personable, hard working, friendly, and all took pride in their work.
You felt everyone had part ownership in the company based on the quality of their work, always friendly, with a very good cleanup at the end of each day. I would highly recommend them to anyone....and have. Our insurance company was also complimentary of their work and quote. In conclusion they are as good as anyone. PS I used this company because they came highly recommended by our neighbors who also used them.

I was very pleased with the entire experience with Shake Guys.
From the initial visit to determine what needed to be done to the actual installation, the entire process was conducted with professionalism and quality workmanship. Our Shake Guys representative, Ryan, worked with our insurance company to coordinate the installation and as a result, our participation was minimal. Our roof looks great, and we are glad that we selected Shake Guys to perform our roof replacement.

Absolutely the best service and follow through ever.
From the first call from Chad T, every detail was explained and Chad was on top of every event in the project, and worked closely with the insurance company. Job was completed on time and quality of workmanship was perfect, and they cleaned up after themselves every day leaving no litter or mess.

Tremendous experience. The Shake Guys replaced our Cedar Shake Roof with DaVinci Composite. Our main contact at Shake Guys was professional, courteous, responsive and honest. I cannot say enough positive things about this company and the way they conduct business. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a roof replacement.

DaVinci Roofscapes is the leading manufacturer of composite roofing tiles. These synthetic products resemble the natural look and feel of true cedar shakes or slate, but they’re made from recycled materials. The result is an equally beautiful roof that’s impressively durable and doesn’t require the hands-on maintenance and upkeep that true cedar shakes do.
