Our Cedar Products
Every Platinum Cedar product starts with Western Red Cedar harvested in British Columbia — including prized Island Cedar from the West Coast and Vancouver Island — and is graded to CSA and Western Red Cedar Shake & Shingle Bureau standards.
Handsplit & Resawn Shakes
Our boldest, most rustic shake. Split on the face for deep texture and resawn on the back for a snug fit, handsplit & resawn shakes give a roof real character and a thick, shadowed profile that stands up to BC weather.
- Rustic, heavy-textured face
- Premium and Number 1 grades
- A favourite for homes that want a classic West Coast look
Tapersawn Shakes
Sawn on both sides for a smooth, tailored finish with the thickness of a shake. Tapersawn is the refined choice — clean lines, strong performance, and a look that suits everything from cottages to custom homes.
- Smooth, uniform appearance
- Thicker and stronger than a shingle
- Premium and Number 1 grades
Perfection Shingles
Precision-milled 18-inch shingles with clean, even lines — the classic choice for roofs and sidewalls alike. Perfection shingles lay up neat and consistent, project after project.
- Clean, uniform courses
- Roofs and sidewalls
- Number 1 and Number 2 grades
5X Shingles — 16-Inch
Our 16-inch Western Red Cedar shingles, available in Premium and Number 1 grades. A versatile, great-value shingle for roofs and sidewall applications, made with the same Island Cedar access and grading standards as everything we ship.
- 16-inch length
- Premium and Number 1 grades
- Roofs and sidewalls
Cedar Sidewall Shingles

Hip & Ridge Cap
The finishing touch that makes a cedar roof. Hip and ridge caps are the pieces that crown the peaks where roof planes meet — the last detail between a good cedar roof and a great one.
