About Classic Cedar Shake Shingles

Classic Cedar Shake Shingles are the real thing: genuine, naturally grown cedar, not a synthetic look-alike. Each shingle is individually split for a warm, rustic texture with natural grain variation that no composite material fully replicates, and the wood ages gracefully to a silvery-gray patina over the years.

This is a distinct offering from our DaVinci and Brava synthetic shake lines: those products are engineered to mimic cedar's appearance with less maintenance and a Class 4 impact rating. Natural cedar shake is the traditional choice for homeowners who specifically want the genuine wood material and its authentic character, and understand the additional maintenance a natural wood roof requires.
