Cedar Shake Roofs

Cahill Contracting uses quality high-end durable materials like cedar shake certified by the Ceader Shake and Shingle Bureau (CSSB) & quality 16 oz copper accessories when installing a shake roof to ensure watertight quality.

The "Silver-Gray" Aesthetic: While new cedar has a warm amber/honey tone, homeowners in the Lowcountry often seek it out for the "weathered look." Over time, the salt air turns the cedar into a distinguished silvery-gray patina that is iconic to coastal architecture

"Curb Appeal" Premium: Real estate agents in Charleston often list "Cedar Shake Roof" as a top-tier luxury feature, making your home stand out.

Long-Term Durability: When properly maintained and installed (with the correct ventilation), a cedar shake roof can last 30 to 50 years. This creates a "peace of mind," knowing you won't have to deal with a roof replacement for decades.
