Making the Switch from Cedar Shake to Enviroshake roofing

Switching from a cedar shake roof to an Enviroshake roof is like trading a landline for a cellphone. It’s a step into the future so seamless that you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it sooner. Or think of it as moving from disposable plastic water bottles to a reusable one—it’s the eco-conscious, modern choice that just makes sense.

Sure, change can feel daunting, but remember when everyone clung to their flip phones? “I don’t need a smartphone,” they’d say. “My flip phone does everything I need!” Then, they made the switch, discovered the ease and versatility of a pocket-sized computer, and never looked back. That’s the kind of transformation Enviroshake brings to your roof.

Here’s why making the switch to Enviroshake is worth it:

  • Fully Transferable Limited Lifetime Warranty: Adds resale value to your home.
  • Virtually Maintenance Free: No topical treatments, preservatives, or upkeep costs.
  • Traditional Aesthetics: Retain the beauty of natural cedar.
  • Unmatched Durability: Not damaged by hail, falling debris, freeze-thaw cycles, or being walked upon.
  • Wind-Resistant: Miami Dade-tested to withstand winds up to 180 mph (290 km/h).
  • Fire-Retardant: Unconditional Class A ASTM E108 fire rating, suitable for use in high-risk fire zones.
  • UV Protection: Best-in-class UV inhibitor technology guarantees lasting color.
  • Ease of Installation: Bundles come pre-shuffled and installs with less waste than cedar.
  • Eco-Friendly: Made from 95% sustainable materials, 100% recyclable, with potable water runoff.
  • Long-Term Cost Savings: Can reduce heating/cooling bills and may lower insurance premiums in some states.

With Enviroshake, you don’t have to choose between aesthetics and performance. Our roofing products are the perfect blend of beauty and durability, backed by decades of proven performance and rigorous third-party testing.

So, just like upgrading to a smartphone or reusable water bottles, switching to Enviroshake is a smart, future-friendly decision. Your roof will thank you—and so will your future self.
