Service overview

Choose cedar with a clear view of care and service life.

Cedar shake brings natural variation and a distinctive profile to a roof. The right plan accounts for the existing roof layers, ventilation, exposure and the details that protect edges and transitions. We install and repair cedar shake roofing across the Bay Area.

Cedar is a natural material, so its look changes over time and its service life depends on installation, ventilation, exposure and maintenance. Before work starts, we’ll discuss the roof assembly, expected upkeep and alternatives such as concrete shake tile.

Common questions

What to know before you start

How long does a cedar shake roof last?

The supplied company information estimates 25 to 40 years for cedar shake. Actual service life varies with installation, exposure and maintenance.

Can damaged shakes be replaced individually?

Some localized damage can be repaired by replacing affected shakes, depending on the surrounding roof condition and material match.

Is cedar the best choice for every home?

No single material suits every roof. Compare the appearance and maintenance of cedar with options such as concrete shake tile, then consider the roof structure and your priorities.
