Shingle Roof

Your Roof, Restored to Greatness

Traditional Timber Roofing and Cladding

Shingles and shakes bring warmth, texture and craftsmanship to a roof in a way few materials can.
At Slate Roof Restorations, we install and replace timber shingles and shakes. These are typically smaller structures like gazebos, gables, entryways, and cladding feature areas.
If you’re looking to match existing shingle work or add something that gives your project a natural, timeless finish, we can help.

What Are Shingles and Shakes?

Both are thin pieces of timber used for roofing or wall cladding. The difference comes down to how they’re made:

  • Shingles are sawn and uniform, giving a smooth, tidy finish
  • Shakes are split by hand, giving a more rugged, textured look

We work with cedar, hardwoods and other suitable timber materials depending on your roofline, wall detail or architectural style.

Where Shingles Are Used

In Sydney, shingles are usually used in smaller sections and do replacement where shingles or shakes bring character to the design.

Common uses include:

  • Gazebos or garden structures
  • Entryways and gable ends
  • Dormer roofs
  • Feature sections or cladding on upper walls
  • Small roof pitches on architectural details
  • Decorative finishes alongside slate or tile roofs

Our Shingle & Shake Work Includes:

  • Installation of new cedar or hardwood shingles or shakes
  • Replacement of aged or weathered sections
  • Matching new work to existing detailing
  • Underlay and batten installation where required
  • Clean-up and sealing for weather protection

If you’re updating a gazebo, reworking a gable end, or want to add a natural timber detail to your home, we’re here to help. We’ll walk you through what’s possible, source the right materials, and make sure it’s installed with care and precision.

Unreservedly recommend, and I'm a hard marker. SRR completely restored our heritage listed house's slate roof in a heritage listed street in Woollahra with a level of professionalism and civility rarely seen these days, not to mention the very competitive costings -- proud owner of the best roof in the street.

It was a pleasure to have the Slate Roof Restorations team re-slate our federation home on Sydney's north shore. Professional, consultative, communicative and perfect clean-up after the job. The roof looks spectacular and our prior issues with water leaks and possums have completely been addressed. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

This was my first time using Slate Roof Restorations, and I can confidently say it won’t be the last! With over 20 years in the building industry, I know a top-quality company when I see one. They were efficient, competitively priced, and left the site spotless. Most importantly, their communication was outstanding—a crucial factor for me and my building company. Highly recommend. Thank you!

We had a few Sydney-based slate companies to repair the slate roof after storm damage, with not a great outcome, including cracked slates remaining and several leaks through, inferior workmanship.. I then called Oliver Stearman at Slate Roof Restorations who was able to fix all problems, including the water leaks and secure the roof, without over- promising and under-delivering, which was a constant with the previous companies. I couldn't recommend Slate Roof Restorations more highly. The quality of their work is outstanding. Their professionalism and dedication to their craft is unmatched

Oliver and his team did an excellent job on our aging and damaged slate roof, and returned multiple times to ensure it was 100% right. I have no hesitation in recommending their services - thank you so much

Roof Shingles and Shakes FAQs

Have questions about our roofing services or process? Find clear answers to some of the most common inquiries below.

Both are thin pieces of timber used for roofing or wall cladding, but they differ in how they are made and how they look. Shingles are sawn to a uniform shape, giving a smooth, tidy finish. Shakes are split by hand, which produces a more rugged, textured appearance. The right choice depends on the style of your home and the look you are after, we can walk you through both options before any work begins.

We work with cedar, hardwoods, and other suitable timber materials depending on your project. Western red cedar is a popular choice for its natural durability, resistance to moisture, and warm appearance. For certain architectural styles or where matching existing work is required, we source the most appropriate material for the specific job.

Yes. Matching new timber work to existing shingles or shakes requires careful attention to the profile, timber species, and installation pattern already in place. Where sections have aged and weathered, we source materials that sit as naturally as possible alongside the original work. Getting this right is a matter of experience and an eye for detail, both of which we bring to every job.
