Wood Shake Roof Installation for Seattle Homes
Seattle's wet climate demands roofs that resist moss, rot, and leaks. Our team installs wood shake roofs with materials suited to heavy rain and wind. We hold licenses for compliance with local building codes. Homeowners face issues like improper underlayment causing water damage or uneven shingles leading to gaps. We prevent these through precise techniques.
Solving Key Pain Points

- Moss growth in damp weather: Our shakes receive treatments, and we add copper strips for long-term control.

- Code violations: We follow Seattle's strict seismic and fire ratings with Class A fire-rated shakes.
