Wood Shingles
Who doesn't love the look of wood shingles? Who can resist standing in awe of the deep grains and color variances of something so natural? However wood shingles fallible beauty comes with a cost, and have some disadvantages. They need maintenance to protect them from mold, fungus, and sun. They are also vulnerable to fire. Natural wood shingles don’t hold up well to nature. Over a short time, they weather, crack, fade, shift and lose that initial rustic elegance that you fell in love with. They can become a safety hazard, leak hazard, fire hazard and can even impact your insurance rates.
Fortunately, there’s a solution to get the look of wood shingles and the durability of asphalt roofing with asphalt wood shingles!
