Shingles
Eastern White Cedar Shingles make a long lasting natural looking covering renowned for the inherent oils that protect it against rotting and insects. Moreover, White Cedar features high insulation properties and can withstand variations in temperature and moisture.
Choosing Shingles
The grading system for eastern white cedar shingles is based on the quality of the finished product and features two grades, each with its own specifications. Choosing a specific grade depends on the intended use (wall, roof, indoor, outdoor) and on the desired appearance (wood color, knots).
