Cedar Shake Roofers in Meridian for Homes and Businesses
Our cedar shake roofers in Meridian repair and replace cedar shake and wood shingle roofs on homes and commercial buildings.
Most owners call both of them a cedar roof. They are two different products, and the difference matters the moment a piece has to be matched:
- Shakes
- Split from the wood, so every piece is a little rougher and less even than the next.
- Wood shingles
- Sawn, so they come out smoother and more uniform, course after course.
We replace like with like, so a repair reads as part of your roof rather than a patch on it.
What we repair
Cedar Shake Roof Work: Split Shakes, Flashing and Valleys
Cedar work covers replacing split or missing shakes, renewing the flashing and valleys, and replacing a shake roof that is past repair.
These are the cedar shake jobs we take on, smallest to biggest:
-
Split and missing shakes
We pull the damaged shakes and slip new cedar into the gap, matched to the courses around it.
What you notice: a dark gap in a course, or pieces of shake in the gutter or on the lawn.
-
Flashing and valleys
We renew the "flashing", the metal at valleys, chimneys, vents and walls, where most roof leaks start.
What you notice: a ceiling stain under a valley, a chimney or the place a roof meets a wall.
-
Full replacement
When the wear runs across the whole roof rather than one patch, we replace it and tell you plainly why.
What you notice: splits and gaps on every slope, and repairs that no longer hold.
What it costs
How Cedar Shake Roofers Is Priced
Cedar work is priced by the shakes we replace, the flashing we renew and the pitch and access of your roof.
The roof itself sets the rest. Total area, pitch, valleys, stories, dormers and access drive the labor, the safety planning, the waste and the schedule, so a steep roof or one two stories tall costs more to work on than a low one with the same damage.
Three things move the number on a cedar job:
- The shakes replaced, how many are split or missing and where they sit.
- The flashing renewed at the valleys, the chimney and the walls.
- The pitch and access, which set how the work is staged and how long it takes.

From the call to the cleanup
How a Cedar Shake Repair Runs
We pull the split shakes, slip new cedar in over sound underlayment, renew the flashing and check the rest of the roof for wear.
We answer the phone or call back the same working day.
A cedar repair runs in these five steps:
Walk and quote
We walk the roof, mark the split and missing shakes and quote the whole job before we start.
Pull the split shakes
The damaged pieces come out without tearing up the sound courses around them.
Seat the new pieces
Under every gap is the "underlayment", the felt or roofing paper layer; where it is torn it gets fixed first, then each new piece is fitted to the course.
Renew the flashing
Where water gets in at a valley, a chimney or a wall, the old metal comes out and new flashing goes in.
Check the rest and clean up
We look over the rest of the roof for wear, tell you what we see, and clean up when the work is done.

Michael did a great job for us. Met him randomly because he bought something from me on FB Marketplace, and then we got talking. Soon enough we were walking around on my roof and he gave me a very competitive quote. He was super professional and the roof is done right. I feel lucky to have found him!

More Cedar Shake Questions
The questions below sit next to cedar shake roof repair, each with a short answer here and a page that covers it in full.
Cedar Shake Upkeep
Cedar roofing needs more maintenance than asphalt shingles or metal, and we tell you that before you choose it.
Moss on a shaded eave and split pieces in a course are the usual things that need attention between visits.
Cedar Shake Roof Lifespan
A cedar roof's life can depend on its upkeep and its attic ventilation more than most roofing materials do.
A roof that is kept clear and vented from below holds its shakes longer; one that is left alone wears out sooner.

Questions We Hear Before a Cedar Repair
Short answers to what owners ask us most. The full answer for your roof comes from walking it.
How much do cedar shake roofs cost?
In Idaho, cedar shake roof repair for split shakes or moss typically runs $350 to $1,100. A full replacement is priced by the size of the roof, its pitch, its valleys and its access, the same things that set what a roof costs, so we quote it after we walk it.
Are cedar shake roofs worth it?
Cedar roofing needs more maintenance than asphalt shingles or metal, so it is worth it for an owner who wants the look of wood and will keep up the care. If that is not you, we will say so and talk through asphalt or metal before you decide.
How much does it cost to treat a cedar shake roof?
It depends on the roof: its total area, pitch, valleys, stories and access set the labor, the same as any cedar job. Call and we will walk the roof, tell you what it needs and put the price in writing before any work starts.
