Wood Shingle Siding
Wood shingles with their long-lasting durability are a popular choice for siding. They lend themselves to both traditional and contemporary architecture.
While wood shingles are more expensive than other options, they can save money on maintenance in the long run. Wood shingles should not be painted but can be stained if desired. Talk to a professional about the type of stain that should be used.
Cedar shingles commonly come in two types: white cedar and red cedar. There are three grades of shingles that are sold.
