Real cedar asks for attention; polymer shake does not. Molded from actual shakes, quality synthetic lines carry Class 4 hail ratings and strong fire ratings without treatment, and never need the cleaning-and-treatment cycle wood demands in a DFW climate. The trade is character: cedar ages into individuality, polymer stays uniform.
We install and service synthetic cedar shake across Northlake and the surrounding DFW communities. You get free written estimates, documented inspections, and honest guidance on whether this system actually fits your home and budget.
What is different in Northlake
Northlake gives Synthetic Cedar Shake a specific job to do, and it is worth naming. This is growth-corridor stock: recent builds, builder-spec roofs, and owners discovering the difference between the shingle the builder chose and the one they would choose. Polymer shake and slate fit that stock where owners want the look without the maintenance contract. They are Class 4 rated, fire rated, and indifferent to the treatment cycle wood demands.
City paperwork in Northlake is ours to carry: permit filed, inspection booked, final documentation in your folder. Hail is the tax every DFW roof eventually pays. Polymer profiles rebound where wood splits and brittle materials crack, which is what the Class 4 rating is for. We work this system in Denton and Lewisville as well; ask and we will point you at nearby examples with a few years of weather on them. The estimate comes with the local specifics in writing: scope, grade, timeline, and both warranty layers.
