RAISING THE ROOF

Enviroshake® puts a high-tech and hard-wearing twist on cedar shingles

May 14, 2010

Traditional cedar shakes add beauty and rustic charm to a home’s exterior. But wind, rain and fluctuating temperatures can exact a heavy toll, requiring a homeowner to replace the roof every 10 to 15 years. Thanks to Enviroshake®, however, homeowners can now get a lifetime of curb appeal from their cedar shakes, and never have to think about – or sink money into – their roof again.

Enviroshake® is warranted for the lifetime that the original purchaser resides in the property. From there, the product warranty is transferable and non pro-rated to the new owner(s) for a 50-year period from the date of manufacture. In the end, homeowners will never have to buy new roofing materials; Enviroshake® will maintain its superior performance and authentic wood appearance for decades to come.

Enviroshake®

Guaranteed not to peel, separate, flake, rust or rot,

Easy to install, Enviroshake® requires no pre-treatment or maintenance. And compared to other roofing materials, Enviroshake® provides increased durability, UV protection, and resistance to mould, mildew, wind, hail and insects. What’s more, the product does all this without sacrificing a single tree.

That is because Enviroshake® is made with 95 per cent reclaimed products, including post-industrial plastics, recycled rubber elastomers and cellulose fibres. As a result, Enviroshake® offers a sustainable alternative to other, less environmentally conscious roofing shingles, such as real cedar wood, slate and fossil-fuel derived asphalt. Furthermore, when builders use Enviroshake®, there is no need to cull bundles of shingles during installation, thereby reducing on-site construction waste.

is a synthetic roofing product that replicates the size and appearance of a natural cedar shingle. In fact, this specially engineered product lightens to a grey colour, matching the antique look of a conventional cedar roof. But while Enviroshake® creates an aged façade, the product can absolutely stand the test of time.
