Cedar shake roof installation involves:
Underlay: Your cedar shake roofing contractor will place a spaced sheathing underlayment on the decking boards beneath the shingles to prevent water damage and give the shingles room for ventilation.
Interlayment: This layer is placed in between each course of shakes.
Spacing: Next, they will align joints, offsetting the shingles between rows to ensure your roof’s durability.
Coverage: Workers will cover the entire surface of your roof, working around fixtures and chimneys as necessary.
Cleanup: After installation, they will clean up any debris left behind.
