Top quality materials and very fast service. Extremely pleased with the results. I obtained 4 estimates and Paul definitely stood out. All contractors offering the same 50 year shingles and other materials but Paul’s price was competitive and he made the process easy. Definitely recommend!

3 Kings Roofing and Construction was used to install an Owen’s Corning roof on my home. Working with this company was a very positive experience. They competitively bid the roof. Installation was done to high standards and attention to detail. Extra effort was made to respect and protect my property. JOB WELL DONE! I highly recommend this company.
Cedar Roofing
Timeless Beauty with Natural Insulation
There is no substitute for the rustic, organic character of a genuine cedar roof. Popular in Fishers, Carmel, and historic Indianapolis neighborhoods, cedar offers a unique aesthetic that matures gracefully over time. 3 Kings Roofing and Gutter sources high-quality cedar products that provide exceptional thermal performance and weather protection.
Natural Insulator: Cedar wood has a high R-value naturally, helping to keep your attic cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter compared to asphalt.
Storm Resilience: Despite its natural appearance, cedar is incredibly resilient against hail and strong winds, often outperforming synthetic materials in impact tests.
Distinctive Aging: Your roof will transition from a fresh, warm tone to a distinguished silver-gray patina, adding to the historic or cottage charm of your property.
Services
Cedar Roof Repair
Maintenance is key to extending the life of a wood roof. We provide expert repairs including replacing individual split or curled shakes, installing zinc strips to prevent moss growth, and ensuring your flashing is directing water away from the wood.
Cedar Roof Replacement
Installing a cedar roof requires specialized craftsmanship. We focus heavily on ventilation—using cedar breather products and proper spacing—to allow the wood to dry out evenly after rain, preventing rot and ensuring a long lifespan.
Options
Hand-Split Shakes
For a rugged, textured appearance. These shakes are thicker and have an irregular surface that creates deep shadow lines, perfect for a bold, custom look.
Tapersawn Shakes
A hybrid option that offers the thickness of a shake but the smooth, sawn appearance of a shingle. This provides a cleaner, more tailored look while maintaining the durability of a thicker cut.
Cedar Shingles
Sawn smooth on both sides, these are thinner and lay flatter than shakes. They offer a refined, uniform appearance often seen on Cape Cod or Colonial-style homes.

FAQ's
Frequently Asked
Questions
We've provided answers to many of our most frequently asked questions. Have a different question for our team? We're happy to help! Just send us an email at info@3kingsroofingandgutters.com.
Is cedar the only type of wood shingle out there?
No, you can also find wood shingles and shakes made of redwood, cypress, and pressure-treated pine.
How many years will a cedar roof last?
Cedar roofs can last up to 25-35 years with proper maintenance.
Does it cost more than regular asphalt shingles?
A cedar roof will cost more than an asphalt shingle roof upfront. However, the extra life you can get out of a cedar roof makes it competitively priced with an asphalt roof.
Is cedar roofing fireproof?
There are some areas that are prone to wildfires that prohibit wood roofing, so be sure to check with your building department first. Non-treated materials have a Class C fire rating, but you can also find treated cedar shakes and shingles.
