Cedar roof systems provide your home with a natural look while still offering great protection from the elements. A cedar roof installed by Godfrey Roofing enhances your homes curb appeal through architectural distinction, exclusivity, and durability. Wood shingles or shakes are the perfect compliment to present your home with the classic appearance you have been looking for.
Cedar roofing systems also provide exceptional thermal insulation properties. Acting as a second layer of insulation to your home, cedar roofing can help make your home more energy efficient. Wood is a natural insulating material. Especially important in Ontario’s cold climate, energy savings are an added benefit to cedar roofing systems.
Cedar roofs systems are available in both shakes or shingles. Cedar shakes are manufactured by splitting the wood which causes one side of the finished product to be rough. Cedar shingles are made by sawing wood into pieces which provides a smooth finished product on both sides. Cedar shakes and cedar shingles are both manufactured in varying widths with uniform thicknesses.
The smooth clean lines of a cedar roof provide a natural beauty often unmatched by other products. The sheer aesthetics of cedar roofing adds value-enhancing properties as a naturally practical roofing option for your property. Best known for their UV and weather resistant properties, wood shingles provide a balance between appeal and performance.
