Shakes and shingles are usually made from redwood, pine, or cedar. Among them, Alaskan Yellow Cedar is reputed to be one of the best roofing materials around, offering decent durability, flexibility, and resistance against the cold. Despite the name, this type of cedar is also found in British Columbia, Washington, and California. The rarity of the material means that only a few reputable companies and online retailers like WoodRoof.com can offer them and install them for interested customers. Thankfully, other types of wood roofs are also recommended and ordinary homeowners can carry out basic maintenance on their shingles and shakes. By applying the proper treatments and preservatives, a cedar shake roof can be keep free of insects, moisture, and discoloration, thereby extending its lifespan.
