Cedar Siding – A Sustainable Green Alternative
Certi-label cedar shakes and shingles are the environmentally responsible choice. Cedar shakes and shingles are renewable, recyclable and sustainable for future generations. Thinning, well-planned harvesting and replanting are all key sustainable forest management practices. These sustainable practices ensure healthy, carbon-hungry trees that clean our air. Young, faster-growing forests absorb more carbon dioxide than older, dying forests. Using cedar shakes for your siding helps to ensure that the carbon is locked into the cells of the wood for decades or even centuries.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cedar Siding
How often does cedar siding need to be stained or sealed?
Cedar needs regular protection to prevent fading and moisture damage. Most homes re-stain or re-seal every 3–7 years, depending on sun and weather exposure. Plan on a yearly inspection and gentle cleaning so small cracks, gaps, and early rot don’t turn into bigger repairs.
Will cedar siding rot or grow mold in Maryland’s humid weather?
It can if moisture gets trapped. Good installation and maintenance help prevent problems—proper flashing, gaps for drying, sealed end cuts, and keeping plants and sprinklers off the siding. If you see soft spots, dark staining, or musty smells, schedule an inspection.
Is cedar siding worth it compared to fiber cement or vinyl?
Cedar is popular for its natural look and curb appeal, and it can last decades when maintained. The tradeoff is higher upkeep and often a higher price than vinyl or fiber cement. If you want real-wood character and can maintain it, cedar can be a strong choice.
