Cedar roofing and siding have been steadily growing in popularity here in Bergen, NJ. Cedar is one of the oldest and most traditional roofing materials still in use; cedar roofing and siding look clean, handsome, and classic.
In Bergen, your roof, no matter its material, be it common durable asphalt, stately slate, or traditional cedar, is up against the worst of the four seasons.
With that said, the biggest threat to cedar roofing and sidings’ longevity is the weather. Be it the summer sun or a gusty winter storm, in every season, Bergen faces some form of precipitation, and your cedar roof or siding sits in a perpetual state of shifting moisture.
As with all things, if you are looking to keep your cedar roof looking and functioning at peak performance, the best defense is a proactive upkeep plan and maintenance schedule.
