Pros of Choosing Wood Shingle Roofing

Wood Shingles

Wood shingles are thin, tapered pieces of wood primarily used to cover roofs and walls of buildings to protect them from the weather. Historically shingles were split from straight grained, knot free bolts of wood. Today shingles are mostly made by being cut which distinguishes them from shakes which are made by being split out of a bolt.


Why Choose Wood Shingle

Wood is a natural resource that is renewable and biodegradable. This means the product is easy to make and get rid of when you need a roof replacement in the future. Wood shingles and shakes come in a variety of materials, such as cedar, redwood or pine. Depending on the material you choose, your roof may even be recyclable.

A wood roof gives a home a traditional look. Some materials mimic the look of wood, but many homeowners still prefer the look of the real deal. As the wood ages, the color will change slightly. Some homeowners feel this change enhances the home’s look even more. Not all wood shingle or shake roofs are the same. Wood can vary in color, thickness, cut and pattern. Shingles come in a uniform size while shakes differ from each other. This versatility helps ensure your roof will look unique even if your neighbor uses the same material. Insulating capability of Wood roof can help regulate the temperature in your house.
