What is the difference between Shingles and Shakes?
The key difference between Marley Cedar Shingles and Marley Cedar Shakes is that the Cedar Shakes have a much thicker end or butt to the product compared with a much thinner end to a shingle. This allows the shake to provide a more rugged detail as it sits further from the roof or vertical which provides deeper shadow lines and rustic appearance.
