Wood Shingle Roofing Installation
Wood roofing is built from thin, tapered pieces of rot-resistant wood that overlap in rows, so rain passes from each piece to the one below it, down to the eaves; the work is done by hand, one piece at a time.
Cedar is the usual choice for a wood roof in this part of the country, since the wood resists rot and splitting better than most other species do; the color shifts with sun and rain, so no two roofs look quite alike.
