24" Tapersawn Shakes
Custom Shingles’ 24” Tapersawn products are sawn on both sides for a semi-textured look that has more in common with shingles than conventional shakes. However, like shakes, they have a strong shadowline and are installed with a felt overlay placed between courses. Use them in any project where a balance between rustic and refined is sought — our Tapersawn shakes are a popular choice in vacation homes, villas, cottages and other luxury properties.
24in Tapersawn shakes are a vary in width, but are available in specified widths, and a number of different thicknesses. Our product is made from premium-grade Western Red Cedar, and consists of 100% edge grain, clear heartwood with no defects. Western Red Cedar, one of the most abundant Cedar species on the planet, offers excellent natural resistance to moisture and decay. As a result, it’s a great choice for roofs and siding in any climate.

Our 24in Tapersawn shakes can be used on any roof with a 3:12 pitch or steeper. We are unique in our ability to steam-bend our products lengthwise, sideways or diagonally to create curved eaves, rolling gables and other custom architectural features not possible with an off-the-shelf product.
Our shingles can also be cut to any of the decorative profiles in our Fancy-Cutt™ lineup, or to a custom design of your specification.
