Shingles & Shakes
At B & F Specialist Timber, we focus on creating high-quality building materials for a variety of professional projects. Shingles and shakes are commonly used in building construction, particularly for roofing and siding. Shingles are thin, tapered pieces of building material, traditionally made of wood for stability and durability. However, they are also available in asphalt, slate, and composite materials.
They are laid in overlapping rows to cover the roof or sides of a building, providing protection against harsh weather conditions. Shakes, on the other hand, are thicker and less uniform, providing a more textured, rugged look, perfect for adding depth and character to a building.
Shakes are often used in buildings inspired by older styles, as they are commonly found in the construction of historic buildings. Our range of shingles and shakes is suitable for home renovations and projects, delivering both structural integrity and elegance. Whether you're a professional builder or working on a small project, our products are designed to elevate the quality of your work.
