When it comes to roofing and siding, few materials match the natural beauty, durability, and versatility of Western Red Cedar shingles. For centuries, cedar has been the choice of builders and homeowners who value both performance and aesthetics. Today, Direct Cedar Supplies, the only dedicated cedar broker in North America, makes it easier than ever to source premium Western Red Cedar shingles directly from trusted mills.
Why Choose Western Red Cedar Shingles?
Western Red Cedar is prized for its natural resistance to decay, moisture, and insects. Unlike synthetic roofing and siding alternatives, cedar shingles offer a renewable, eco-friendly solution with a unique charm that grows richer over time.
- Durability: Western Red Cedar can withstand harsh weather, from heavy rains to coastal winds.
- Insulation Value: Cedar provides natural thermal insulation, helping regulate indoor temperatures and lowering energy costs.
- Lightweight & Strong: Easy to handle yet strong enough to last for decades.
- Natural Beauty: Warm tones, fine grain, and subtle texture give any home timeless curb appeal.
Roofing and Siding Applications
Western Red Cedar shingles are a versatile choice, suitable for:
- Residential Roofing: Adds character and longevity to family homes and cottages.
- Architectural Siding: Creates a refined, natural look that works with both modern and traditional designs.
