Cedar Roofing

If you love the appearance of natural wood, cedar roofing offers a stunning option for protecting your home. Cedar shakes and shingles are beautiful, and they also have many other benefits. If you are considering cedar roofing to replace an existing roof or for a new home in the Twin Cities area, talk to our experienced team at RedLine Contracting. We are your local source for exceptional workmanship and quality cedar roofing to protect your home.

Nothing compares to the splendor of natural wood. While there are metal and asphalt roofing products that simulate wood, the natural beauty of cedar shakes and shingles always outshines the facsimiles. Cedar roofing is not the cheapest option, but it is also not the most expensive. For a mid-range budget, cedar roofing can offer many benefits that our clients appreciate, including:

Eco-friendly. Cedar can be recycled or decomposed, unlike some other roofing materials like asphalt shingles, reducing impact on the environment.
Improved insulation. Cedar shakes and shingles are thicker and provide natural roof insulation, helping reducing energy costs.
Aesthetic value. The beauty of cedar roofing can improve the aesthetics and curb appeal of a home, adding value.
Longevity. Cedar roofing can last up to 25 years and withstands the harsh elements of Minnesota well. Unlike some other types of wood roofing, cedar retains its shape and is less likely to warp or shrink.

Both cedar shakes and shingles offer these benefits, but there is a difference between the two types. Cedar shakes offer a classic, rustic appearance; each shake may be slightly different in shape and size. Cedar shingles are cut in uniform size and shape, which may be a better look for more modern or contemporary homes.

Our team at RedLine Contracting pride ourselves in providing the best quality and service for our clients. Whether you have a small lake cottage in Prior Lake or a large home in Bloomington that needs a new cedar roof, you will receive the same attention to detail and professional service from our crew. We believe in going above and beyond for all our clients, offering the best value for their roofing investment.

While cedar roofing is not right for every home, it is a stunning option for the right style. To learn more about cedar shingles or shakes, or any of our other roofing options, contact us at RedLine Contracting. We serve the greater Minneapolis and Twin Cities area.
