Alaskan Yellow Cedar is very similar to Western Red Cedar in terms of it’s strength and longevity. It is the most dense Cedar available in a Shake or a Shingle, and is prized for it’s natural weathered silver appearance. Much like Western Red Cedar, Alaskan Yellow is available in both a Smooth Sawn Shake or Shingle, or in a Handsplit & Resawn Shake, with differing lengths and thicknesses also available. CertiGrade R&R Sidewall Shingles are also manufactured in Alaskan Yellow, with many of the same pre-finishing options open to you.
Last but not least, our Eastern White Cedar siding shingles have been a treasure to homeowner across the United States for generations. Whether you are looking for the natural weathered “Cape Cod Grey” look of Eastern White Cedar, or prefer to have your shingles pre dipped, we offer the best quality Eastern White Cedar shingles on the planet. Eastern White Cedar is also very popular due to how well it absorbs and reflects stain. Whether you are in the market for a Clear Stain, Weathering Stain, Bleaching Oil, Semi-Transparent or 1 or 2 coat Solid Stains, we have the shingle you are in the market for. We are also pleased to now offer a new product, Max Sealer for our Eastern White Cedar R&Rs.
