Clip Summary

Homer Earl (from the Cedar Shake and Shingle Bureau) talks about what makes a quality shingle. Red cedar has properties that make it resistant to weather, insects, and decay. This red cedar comes from British Columbia. A representative from Sikkens remarks on the wood finish for the shingles, which imparts a deep, rich color, as well as UV protection.
