\n\t\tWood Shake \/ Cedar Shake Style\n\t<\/h1>\n\t

Real wood shake shingles have been used on homes for a very long time and have a high-end and classic look. They generally last much longer than asphalt shingles. However, many wood shakes do not hold up as well as some modern roofing materials, can be destroyed by hailstones, and pose a fire hazard. Many insurance companies will not insure buildings with real wood shake roofing. Thus, real wood shakes have declined in popularity over the past several decades. However, homeowners still can obtain this same timeless look through a variety of state-of-the-art stone coated steel, stamped metal, composite, and concrete products. Nevertheless, Roofing Force still installs and repairs a number of real wood shake roofs every year. Our roofing experts in Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Oklahoma and Arkansas are happy to help you find the right product with the right look for your home.<\/p>\n
