It’s one of the most common questions we get and one that’s not too hard to answer. Why? Because cedar shingle siding is a great option for many different climates, and with the right care, it can stay beautiful and strong for years. Here’s a quick look at how it performs in various environments:
Humid & Coastal Areas
Cedar’s natural resistance to rot and pests makes it a solid choice for damp, salty air. Pre-finished shingles offer extra protection against mold and mildew.
Dry & Arid Climates
In drier regions, cedar holds up well with minimal risk of rot. Pre-finishing helps control how the wood weathers and shields it from sun damage.
Cold Climates
Cedar does just fine in snowy or icy conditions, especially when it’s well-insulated and properly installed.
Hot & Sunny Areas
Lots of sun can cause fading or cracking over time, but with regular sealing or staining, your shingles will stay protected and looking great.
With a little upkeep and the right prep, cedar shingles can thrive just about anywhere. Have more questions? Visit the FAQ page or feel free to reach out!
