You may be paying more than you think, for "cheap" roofing. Questionnaires returned from many sections of the country indicate that many builders fail to figure the cost of sheathing when estimating roo'fing 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 costs only half as much 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 the comparative costs of cedar shingles with spaned sheathing as against substitute roofing with solid sheathingWe'll be glad to send you a handy estimating form which includes all of the factors of costs in building a new roof.
