Aged Cedar
Cracked, curled, split, or aging cedar shakes can let moisture reach the layers beneath your siding. Peeling finishes and dark stains may also be signs that your wood needs attention. Farmington CT’s rain, snow, humidity, seasonal weather, and freeze-thaw cycles can accelerate wear when siding lacks proper flashing, ventilation, or upkeep. Delaying an inspection may allow isolated damage to become more extensive siding and substrate repairs.

Shake Siding Farmington
Cedar shake siding uses individual wood pieces to create a layered, textured exterior suited to many New England homes. It can cover the entire house or add character to gables, dormers, and accent walls. Each shake requires careful placement, so installation and maintenance are often more involved than with flat clapboard.

Cedar FAQs
Get direct answers about cedar shake siding installation, style options, maintenance, project timing, estimates, and service across Connecticut below.
What is the difference between cedar shakes and cedar shingles?
Cedar shakes generally have a thicker, more varied profile that creates a rugged texture. Cedar shingles are thinner and more uniform, giving the wall a cleaner, more even appearance.
Is cedar shake siding a good fit for Connecticut homes?
Yes. Cedar suits New England, coastal, colonial, farmhouse, and modern homes. With correct flashing, ventilation, finishing, and upkeep, it can perform for decades in Connecticut’s changing weather.
Can cedar shakes be used for accents and full-home siding?
Yes. Cedar shake siding works on gables, dormers, accent walls, front elevations, and full-home installations. K.P. LaMarco can help select a scope that fits your home’s architecture, budget, and upkeep plans.
How much does cedar shake siding cost in CT?
Pricing depends on home size, cedar species and grade, shake profile, old siding removal, substrate repairs, finish, trim, wall height, and labor. Shake siding typically costs more than flat clapboard because each piece takes more time to install.
How should cedar shake siding be maintained?
Inspect it yearly, clean it gently, and renew the stain, sealer, or paint as needed for the finish and exposure. Shoreline, wooded, or shaded homes may need more frequent cleaning and touch-ups because moisture can dry more slowly.
