Wood Shakes & Shingles

You traditional product, this type of roofing system has been around, literally, for centuries. Two general types: shake and shingle. Shingle is a clean cut product, milled on both sides and generally thinner. Shake is only flat on one side while the face is split with the natural grain of the wood.

Both types come in a variety of wood types, with cedar being the most popular.  It is cheaper than other types of roofing systems but it won’t last as long.
