About Timber Shingles products

The timber shingles listed here are individual wood pieces for exterior walls or roofs. Their use as roofing shingles requires an assembly with underlayment and flashing that follow the selected product's installation requirements. Local codes in the United States can restrict wood roofing, particularly in areas subject to wildfire, so confirm the permitted roof covering before specifying a finish.

Timber Shingles

The exposed portion of each wood shingle sets the scale of the finished surface. Shingles generally have sawn faces, while wood shake roof shingles may have a split face and a less regular texture. Comparing samples at the proposed exposure gives a clearer sense of the finished wall or roof than inspecting a single loose piece.

How do I estimate the quantity of house shingles?

Measure the surface area and use the manufacturer's coverage figure at the specified exposure. Allow for cuts and waste, with the contractor confirming the allowance for corners or complex roof geometry.

Which details matter when specifying roofing timber for shingles?

Specify the wood species and shingle grade, along with any required preservative or fire-retardant treatment. Keep treatment certification with the project records.

Are timber shingle roof tiles a separate type of product?

The term can refer to wood shingles rather than a separate tile system. Use the manufacturer's product name and roof installation details in the specification to avoid ambiguity.
