Protection From the Elements

Treating a cedar roof helps to protect it from the elements. A treated cedar roof will be better able to withstand wind, rain, snow and ice. With this, you won’t have to worry about enormous wear and tear every time a storm comes by. The treatment also helps prevent moisture damage due to water absorption, which could cause mold growth or rot over time. 

Aesthetic Appeal

Treating a cedar roof upgrades its overall appearance. The treatment helps bring out the natural beauty of the wood and can give your home a unique, rustic look that will stand out from other homes in Mundelein, IL. Additionally, it can increase the curb appeal of your home, which is beneficial when you are trying to sell. 

Increased Lifespan

Treating a cedar roof can increase its lifespan. The treatment helps to protect the wood from weathering, which can cause cracking, splitting or warping over time. It also helps to reduce fading caused by UV radiation which would otherwise make your roof look dull and faded after several years of exposure. 

Long-Term Savings

By having your cedar roof treated, you’ll be able to save money in the long run. This is due to reduced maintenance costs associated with repairing or replacing damaged sections of your roof.
