AJR ROOFING SERVICES
Located in Camden, Maine, AJR Roofing services offers quality and affordable asphalt and cedar shingle roofing services for residential and commercial settings. Our customers have the assurance that all the products used to repair and replace their roofs are top quality.
At AJR Roofing, we specialize in high-quality cedar shake or shingle roofing in Maine including the islands, and we pride ourselves on using the best materials and installation methods available. When cedar shake roofs are properly installed and maintained, they can last for up to 50 years. This longevity is due to the inherent qualities of cedar shakes, such as their resistance to rot, insect attacks, and decay, thanks to the natural preservative called tannic acid present in the wood and also how well the roof is maintained.
Our cedar shake roof product programs source shingles from reputable local sawmills, such as the Longfellow Shingle Company & Liberty Cedar and others. We achieve this by partnering with select local vendors through our cedar shake roof product programs. Our shakes and shingles include treated and untreated cedar shakes and shingles, available in various styles and dimensions.
Cedar shingles and cedar shakes are not the same thing, although they are both types of roofing materials made from cedar wood. Both cedar shingles and cedar shakes are popular choices for roofing due to the natural beauty, durability, and weather-resistant properties of cedar wood. The choice between shingles and shakes often comes down to personal preference, architectural style, and desired aesthetic.
Cedar shingles are thin, machine-cut pieces of cedar wood that are tapered and sawn on both sides. They have a smooth and uniform appearance. Cedar shingles are commonly used for roofing and siding applications and provide a clean and refined look to structures. They are usually installed in a uniform pattern and offer a more formal aesthetic.
Cedar shakes, on the other hand, are thicker and hand-split or sawn on at least one side, resulting in a textured and rustic appearance. Shakes have a more irregular shape and thickness compared to shingles. They offer a natural, rustic, and traditional look. Cedar shakes are commonly used for roofing and siding, particularly in applications where a more rustic or historical appearance is desired.
