Common Questions About Cedar Shake Roofs

Do cedar shake roofs warp?

Cedar shake roofs can warp over time if they’re exposed to excessive moisture or poor ventilation. Proper installation and routine maintenance can prevent this.

How often do I need to clean my cedar shake roof?

We recommend cleaning your cedar shake roof every three to five years. Regular cleaning removes moss, debris, and algae buildup that trap moisture and shorten the roof’s lifespan.

Can you treat my cedar shake roof against rot, mold, and fire?

Yes. We use professional-grade treatments that protect cedar from mold, mildew, and rot while also improving fire resistance.

How well do cedar shake roofs hold up to weather?

When well maintained, cedar shake roofs are very durable and do a great job at resisting wind, rain, hail, and temperature change.

I had nothing but a awesome experience with Frederic Roofing. They were professional, and extremely helpful through the whole process.
