Expert Verdict Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk

Shake-base roof assemblies require the base and top to share the same profile and size, so order both from the same manufacturer line. Install per the manufacturer’s instructions and local code, lapping properly with underlayment and shingles. Check the job’s shake exposure to confirm the 12 in. size suits the roof layout.

Sheet-metal flashing edges can be sharp; wear gloves and use fall protection when working on roofs.
