Cedar Shake
Functionally, the most important difference between cedar shakes and shingles is that shingles are milled more precisely than shakes. Cedar shakes are more irregular and don't lay as flat when installed. This creates gaps that can be penetrated by wind-blown precipitation, so professional installation is a must.
Modern wood shakes are made using contemporary technology. One side will deliver the hand-split texture that some homeowners love, but the opposite side is typically smooth and sawn.
Generally speaking, cedar shakes are more durable and last longer than shingles because they are thicker and made from premium-grade wood.
When cedar shakes are installed, overlapping layers of roofing felt need to be placed between the shake layers.
Cedar Shingles
A shingle is what you typically see on most homes. Shingles are sawn on both sides, and they are typically thinner than shakes. Cedar shingles are versatile, and they make a good fit on most era-appropriate homes.
Cedar Shingles are more uniform in nature. When you hold a single tile in your hands, you'll notice that both sides are smooth and consistent
Stacking shingles on top of one another can also help in colder climates where retaining heat and eliminating cold leaks from the outside are crucial.
A circular saw cuts a shingle from a block of cedar wood. Each pass of the saw creates a tapered cut, all of the same thickness.
Cedar shingles are cut on both sides using a saw. The end of the cut, or butt, is thinner than a shake.
