Sure CEDAR SHINGLES run Gut sheat$ng costs in half! I I I
You may be paying more than you think, for "inexpensive" roofng. Don't fail to figure the cost of sheathing when estimating roofing expense. Certigrade cedar shingles, because of their great strength and rigidity, require only half the sheathing that you must use on ordinary roofing.
Yes, spaced sheathing costs about half as much as solid sheathing, and it also costs much Iess to apply! You can count on saving about $200 on sheathing and its application when you roof the typical 1952 house with cedar shingles. Normally, you will find that this saving more than makes up for the difference in cost of genuine cedar over substitute roofing.
Sharpen your pencil. Figure it out for yourself. Figure the comparative costs of cedar shingles with spaced sheathing as against substitute roofing with solid sheathing. We'II be glad to send you a handy estimating form which includes all of the cost factors in building a new roof.
