Why Choose Brava Cedar Shake Roofing?
Brava cedar shake roofing provides the look and feel of authentic cedar shakes but with additional durability and longevity. Here are some extra benefits of having a Brava roof installed.
-
Authentic Appearance: Brava cedar shake replicates the natural texture and color variations of real cedar shake, providing a stunning and realistic appearance that enhances any home's curb appeal. This appearance is only more so amplified with beautiful colors such as Natural color that we used on this home, Lake Forest color, Canyon Gray color, or Aspen color, which all offer blends of grays and browns.
-
Durability: Brava cedar shakes are made from a high-performance composite material that withstands all weather conditions that Park Ridge and the Chicagoland area may experience. Whether it's the heavy snowfall and below zero temperatures of winter or the intense heat and humidity of summer, Brava shake roofs maintain their integrity and appearance.
-
Low Maintenance: Natural cedar shake roofs may require regular maintenance to prevent mold, mildew, and insect infestations. Brava cedar shake roofs are resistant to these issues, saving you time and money on upkeep.
-
Environmentally Friendly: Brava cedar shakes are made from recycled materials and are fully recyclable at the end of their lifespan. This makes them an eco-friendly choice for environmentally conscious homeowners in Park Ridge and the Northshore.
-
Fire Resistance: One of the significant advantages of Brava cedar shake is its Class C fire rating, with a possible upgrade to a Class A fire rating, the highest rating available. This provides added peace of mind, especially for homes with wood-burning features and for villages near Park Ridge that require these fire ratings. A Brava roof installation, with the added fire resistance, may also help lower the insurance premiums on your home, if you are replacing a cedar shake roof.
