Brava Cedar Shake | Field Shake Layout and Installation | Video 1

Описание: Welcome to Part 1 of the Brava Cedar Shake Installation Series. In this video, we walk you through the essential steps for properly laying out and installing Brava Cedar Shakes to ensure a professional, durable, and visually stunning result. You’ll learn about substrate and slope requirements, pre-installation considerations, and how to correctly load and blend shake bundles on the roof for a consistent color mix. We cover the differences between standard field shakes and optional solid shakes, and explain how to use them effectively at rake edges and detail areas.

The video also demonstrates starter course setup, fastener guidelines, spacing for thermal movement, and how to randomize shake widths for a natural appearance. You’ll see how to use chalk lines to maintain proper exposure, align courses, and avoid common mistakes like exposed fasteners. Key measurements, including minimum fastener penetration, spacing, side laps, and overhangs, are clearly explained to help you meet code, warranty, and aesthetic standards.
