Types of Cedar Roofs Roofs We Install
Cedar roofs can be installed with cedar shakes or cedar shingles. Here is the difference between the two:
Cedar Shake Roofing
Shakes are made when manufacturers split sheets from a dried log or plant. Because of the natural wood grain, cedar shakes tend to last longer than manufactured shingles. This also makes every single piece unique, and no two cedar shake roofs are the same.
Cedar Shingle Roofing
Wood shingles are different from shakes in that they are sawed on each side. This cutting method makes them more uniform in appearance, but it leaves cross-grain saw marks. They’re a much more inexpensive alternative to shakes and provide a beautifully consistent look to your roof.
The Pros and Cons of Cedar Roofing
When making your selection about the type of cedar roofing to fit your needs, there will be pros and cons. We have broken down the list for you:
Pros of Cedar Roofing
- Traditional look: Cedar roofs provide a rustic and all-natural look. No need to try and replicate the look when you can get the real thing!
- Insulation: Cedar offers natural energy efficiency up to two times more insulating than asphalt. Saving you money on your heating and cooling bills.
- Installation: A veteran roofing crew can tack up a cedar roof in no time, saving you on labor costs.
Cons of Cedar Roofing
- Drying Issues: Because cedar roofing materials are made from trees, they are more prone to drying out. This could make your home more susceptible to fire damage if not properly treated.
- Cost: The longevity of a cedar roof is comparable to an asphalt shingle roof, but cedarwood itself is a more expensive material. This could be a disadvantage for some homeowners.
Cedar Roof FAQs
Close
Are cedar roofs hard to install?
No specialized equipment is needed for a cedar roof, making it reasonably easy for a crew to install. However, it’s crucial to find a crew who has experience installing cedar roofs, especially cedar shakes. Because cedar shakes are not uniform, they need to be properly installed to avoid leaks and vulnerable areas in your roof.
Does it cost more than regular asphalt shingles?
Yes, but for many homeowners, it is worth the investment for the beautiful rustic look!
How many years will a cedar roof last?
With proper maintenance, your cedar roof will last up to 25 years.
How do you maintain a cedar roof?
Outside of the usual yearly cleaning and gutter maintenance, cedar roofs have to receive protective treatments once every three years. These treatments keep the wood fireproof, rot-resistant, and protected against mold.

My experience with Okc Roofers was terrific. I called them out for a roof inspection. My roof was over 20 years old. We called the insurance to do an inspection, and they denied my claim. Insurance kept telling me that there was no damage … More and that they would not cover the roof. Eric Aultz assured me this is the process it sometimes takes and that there are steps you can take when you disagree with the insurance's initial assessment. After about three weeks dealing with the insurance to get them back out, Eric got my entire roof, gutters, and shed replaced. I have to admit I didn’t think it was going to happen. It was losing faith. Eric kept sharing, he felt confident about the process. Once the paperwork was back, we realized that my house decking was out of code. Okc Roofers, the team at Okc Roofers, got my insurance to pay for the Re-deck and all code items.When installing the roof, they were very thorough and clean. They Re-decked and reroofed my home in one day. Left the property looking almost as good as when they showed up.I had a portion of my gutters around the Pergola. That was really strange. They were able to get my gutters up and fix the trouble location no problem.Overall, just an outstanding experience with the OKC roofers every person that I met was a delight to me to talk to them on a regular basis I would have, and would definitely refer them to anybody!

From day one, Owen has been amazing with providing great customer service and has been so quick to respond and very helpful with every part of the roofing installation process. He even helped tremendously working directly with the insurance … More company when the insurance company was trying to be difficult. His team did a great job at installing our roof and we are SO happy with the quality and color of the shingles. Gave our whole house a face lift! We have an older house, so our chimney pipes were tarnished and aged. We weren’t aware that the roofers spray paint the chimney pipes to match the shingles which is great if you want that, I personally may just have odd taste and liked the old antiqued pipe more lol. But Owen did a fantastic job at offering to paint it differently and make sure I was happy with the finished product!The team also did a great job at clean up! They even got old shingle pieces and what not out of our bushes and took the time to make it look very nice afterwards. Just as any roof installation, every so often even with great cleanup, some nails can get missed. We unfortunately had a few flat tires afterwards, but again- Owen and the team did everything in their power to make things right, and we are very thankful for a company that cares so much about their customers! We highly recommend them and think you’ll be very happy with using them!
