Do SBC cedar shingles require much maintenance?
No, and there are two options: wait for the natural weathering process or apply stain. If you decide to stain your shingles, it is preferable to buy the SBC factory-stained shingles. They will thus be covered with quality stain on all faces, which allow SBC to offer warranties of up to 25 years against cracking and peeling. Whether left natural or factory-stained, it is recommended to clean your shingles each year. This way, they will remain clean and free from any deposit.
