Is your roof over four years old?

Are you concerned about how to maintain & restore your cedar roof?
Properly protected and maintained, your roof should last a life time...
The
fact is, cedar roofs can be
maintained, extending their life expectancy. With the rising costs of
cedar and alternative roofing products, you will see that restoring and
repairing your roof is a sound investment. Re-Roofing Options include:
Cedar shakes and shingles, treated shakes/shingles are also available
in stock. Available in 18 inch and 24 inch. All Installers are fully
qualified and are covered by WCB and liability insurance.
A
cedar roof is a natural product and as such does require periodic
maintenance. Cedar roof care should be taken to observe the following :
- Keep
the valleys clean of leaves and debris. This applies to any roofing
system but is especially important in cedar roofs. When debris
accumulates in the valley it retains the moisture and eventually will
allow the cedar to decay and rot.
- Keep the gutters and downspouts clean and free of debris to prevent back ups and prevent ice damming.
- Trim back the branches of near by trees to prevent them from scrapping and brushing against the roof.
- In
heavily shaded areas insure that the moss and fungus is not allowed to
accumulate on the cedar. This moss build up allows the cedar to retain
moisture and leads to decay.

Left unprotected, wood decay will eventually occur. The three basic causes of wood decay are:
- Water
- Sunlight
- Fungus (e.g., algae or moss)
If
the water absorption can be eliminated, you can control the growth of
the fungus that causes wood to rot. The natural rays of the sun will
slowly leech out oils and resins from cedar shakes and shingles. These
factors combined results in discolouration, wood decay and splitting -
thus dramatically reducing life expectancy of the roof and the value of
your property.
