About DaVinci Bellaforte Shake
The DaVinci Bellaforte Shake delivers the warm, rustic character of natural cedar shake without any of its drawbacks. Real cedar shake requires regular treatment, is a fire hazard, and typically lasts only 15-20 years in Northern Virginia's climate before splitting, curling, and developing moss. Bellaforte Shake lasts 3x longer with zero maintenance.
Like its slate counterpart, the Shake version carries a Class 4 impact rating and installs on standard framing. The tiles feature a hand-split texture with realistic grain patterns and thickness variation. For Northern Virginia homeowners in wooded neighborhoods who love the cedar shake aesthetic but don't want the maintenance commitment, this is the modern alternative.
