At some point in the next few years, I'm going to have to replace my roof.
Homeowners assoc is VERY strict about what can be used.... some of the newer types of "fake" wood shingles are allowed, but I don't like their appearance. But for the most part, they only allow cedar shingles.
Anyway, I was just wondering why no one ever seals their shingles with something similar to what is used on decks.
Is it due to an increased fire hazard (over and above what is pretty much already a fire just waiting to happen)? Too much added weight? Screws up the water flow?
I guess what I'm getting at is I love the look of a newly installed cedar roof, but that look only lasts a couple years before it's faded to gray..... just wondering if anyone has any info on how to maintain that "new" look for as long as possible.
Thanks Matt
