Professional Cedar Shake Contractor in Wrentham, MA
Western Red Cedar shake and shingle siding installation and replacement across Massachusetts. Alfa Construction re-sides your home's full exterior in hand-split shakes or machine-cut shingles for that classic Cape Cod and historic New England look. We take full-exterior re-sides, not patch jobs.
Why Choose Professional Cedar Shake in Wrentham, Massachusetts?
In Wrentham neighborhoods, a cedar exterior sets a home apart from the vinyl-clad houses around it. When that cedar fades, cups, or goes blotchy from missed maintenance, it drags the whole look down. Alfa Construction helps Wrentham homeowners restore that standout appearance with a full Western Red Cedar re-side, installed and finished by experienced professionals who get every course right.
Lower courses of cedar on Wrentham homes often fail first, where splash-back off walkways and ground-level moisture overwhelm the wood's natural resistance. Homeowners notice soft, dark, or insect-damaged shakes near the foundation and assume the whole wall is gone — when the real issue is a wall that was never detailed to keep that bottom edge dry.
Alfa Construction helps Wrentham homeowners decide between shakes and shingles and choose a finish direction that fits their style and maintenance appetite. We bring physical cedar samples to your home so you can compare texture and stain against your roof, trim, and landscaping in natural light — no guesswork about how your Wrentham cedar wall will look before we begin.

What Are Common Cedar Shake Problems in Wrentham, MA?
Common Problems
- 1
Aging cedar shakes that have cupped, split, or worked loose, leaving gaps where wind-driven rain gets behind the wall
- 2
Cedar siding that was face-nailed flat against the sheathing with no ventilation, trapping moisture and rotting the courses from behind
- 3
Rust streaks bleeding down the wall because the previous installer used cheap fasteners instead of stainless steel on a coastal home
- 4
A blotchy, half-stained, half-bare exterior because re-staining was deferred well past the five-to-seven-year window cedar needs
- 5
Insect-damaged or decayed lower courses where splash-back and ground contact overwhelmed the cedar's natural resistance
Our Solutions
- 1
Full-exterior installation in hand-split Western Red Cedar shakes for a thick, rugged, deeply shadowed wall with maximum texture and character
- 2
Machine-cut cedar shingle installation for a smoother, tighter, more uniform reveal suited to refined Cape Cod and shingle-style homes
- 3
Rear-ventilated furring-strip systems that hold the cedar off the wall so every course can dry from behind — the single biggest factor in a wood wall's lifespan
- 4
Stainless steel fastening throughout on coastal and salt-air exposures so the wall stays clean and never bleeds rust down a fresh course
- 5
Complete cedar re-sides with proper housewrap, flashing, and a factory-applied or job-site stain finish ready to maintain on a predictable schedule
