Shake It Up!

Natural wood gives that special something to the warmth and character of your home’s exterior.

This home, for example, keeps the majority of the house minimal, but the cedar shakes in the gables really elevate the style:

A natural cedar shake will patina over time to a soft grey if left untreated. You can stain the shakes to enrich their colour, or you could use a faux shake that keeps your desired wood colour consistent over time, without the maintenance!
