Shake & Shingle Roof Application Instructions
Watkins is your valuable resource for installing Western Red Cedar Shake and Shingles
All Watkins brand cedar shingles are available with ColorSeal and stain finishes are available in Oil or Acrylic in a variety of custom colors, weathering options and warranties. After painting, the shingles are thoroughly oven dried before they’re packed in a box for shipping. That means you can expect a flawless finish upon arrival.
Watkins finished cedar siding benefits:
Our Factory Finish Solid Color produces vibrant, long-lasting colors that look flawless for up to 25 years. Choose from a wide array of colors and protection options or ask us about custom color blends.
For a polished look that doesn’t hide the beauty of the natural wood grain, choose our Semi Solid Stains. The semi-opaque finish highlights the wood texture while offering a deep-penetrating flat finish. Ask us about creating the perfect balance of color and protection for your cedar shingles.
Highlight the natural beauty of your cedar shingles with a delicate touch of color. Our Semi-Transparent Stains last from 5-10 years without maintenance and impart a deep richness.
Add sheer, nearly transparent color without masking the natural wood grain and texture with our Clear Finishes that protect and enhance your cedar shingles.
