Lampert Lumber has experience with countless types of roofing products and knows what works best. There are key differences when it comes to cedar shakes and cedar shingles.

Cedar Shakes

Cedar shakes provide a more rustic and irregular appearance than cedar shingles. This type of roofing gives off a more charming feel and goes well with cottage-style homes. Cedar shakes are made by machine and sometimes grooved to appear that they are hand split. Thicker than shingles, this type of roofing does not lay flat and is less precise.

Cedar Shingles

This type of roofing is more precisely milled than cedar shakes and offers more of a classic, refined appearance. Cedar shingles tend to be a more popular choice because they can fit into a number of building styles. This type of roofing is a bit more modern than cedar shakes and is much more precise. When installed, cedar shingles will lay flat and give your roof a clean look.
