Considering Cedar Roof for Your Home, Cottage or Gazebo?

You’re on the right track! Cedar is well known for its long lasting, durable qualities; its unique and beautiful appearance and its 100% organic composition. Cedar has been used for centuries as a roofing and siding material all over the world (especially in Canada and U.S.A.) and is considered by many a product of choice for roofing and siding needs.

Some of the Key Benefits of a Cedar Roof:

Energy

Exceptional thermal insulation properties prevent escape of warm air in the winter and escape of cold air in the summer.

Strength and Stability

Cedar Roofs have a natural durability. The resiliency of Cedar wood fibers easily handle extreme weather conditions including hail, snow storms, and heavy winds of up to 130 miles per hour.

Natural Resistance

Cedar is highly resistant to rain and contains natural oils that prohibit rot and mold growth. Cedar Roofs also allow for much more airflow around the shingles which enhance prevention of roof decay and insect infestations.
