Cedar roof treatment can significantly extend the lifespan of a cedar shake roof.

Is Your Cedar Roof Over Four Years Old?
If your cedar roof is over four years old, you might be concerned about maintenance and restoration. There’s no need to worry; a properly protected and maintained cedar roof can last a lifetime. Cedar roofs require routine care to maintain their health, but this can be achieved with a few simple steps:
Tips to Extend the Longevity of Your Cedar Roof:
- Clean the Valleys: Keep valleys free of leaves and clutter to prevent moisture retention, which can cause the cedar to decay and rot.
- Maintain Gutters and Downspouts: Ensure gutters and downspouts are clean to avoid backups and ice damming.
- Trim Surrounding Trees: Cut back branches to prevent them from rubbing against the roof.
- Control Moss and Fungus: In shaded areas, prevent moss and fungus buildup to avoid moisture retention and decay.
Before and After Cedar Roof Maintenance and Restoration
Without proper protection, wood decay will eventually occur. The three primary causes of wood decay are:
- Water
- Sunlight
- Fungus (e.g., algae or moss)
By eliminating water absorption, you can control fungus growth that causes wood to rot. Sunlight gradually leaches out oils and resins from cedar shakes and shingles, leading to discoloration, decay, and splitting. This dramatically reduces the lifespan of the roof and the value of your property.
