Harwich is where the Lower Cape begins, about 30 minutes east of our shop. Harwich Port, with Wychmere and Saquatucket harbors, has a concentration of well-kept waterfront homes where exterior appearance matters and the salt exposure is real. West and South Harwich are full of mid-century Capes along Route 28, and East Harwich has newer homes toward the Chatham line. Harwich homeowners tend to hold their properties for a long time, so we get asked for work that will last decades rather than a quick fix before a sale.
Harwich Port homeowners usually want natural white cedar shingles to match the harbor neighborhoods. Along Route 28 in West and South Harwich, vinyl and fiber cement are common and practical.
White cedar shingles are the Cape Cod exterior. They weather to a silver-gray, they suit every style of house from antique Capes to modern shingle-style homes, and in most historic districts they are the material the committee wants to see. A cedar shingle wall done right has housewrap and a rain-screen gap behind it, consistent exposure course to course, tight-fitting corners and stainless steel nails that never bleed. We install natural white cedar that will weather on its own, or factory pre-stained shingles for homeowners who want a specific color and a longer finish life.

Does the budget cover all costs involved?
Yes. Honesty is our trademark. We provide clear, comprehensive quotes so you know exactly what you are paying for to maximize the return on your investment.
How long do cedar shingles last on a Cape Cod home?
Properly installed white cedar siding with stainless fasteners and a rain-screen gap lasts 30 years or more on the Cape. The shingles that fail early were usually nailed directly to the sheathing without a gap, or fastened with nails that rusted through.
Should I leave cedar shingles natural or have them stained?
Natural cedar weathers to silver-gray and needs no maintenance, which is the traditional Cape look. Pre-stained or bleaching-oil finishes give you a controlled color and slow the weathering. Both are good choices; it depends on the look you want.
How far in advance should I book a cedar shingle siding project in Harwich?
For Harwich and the rest of the Lower Cape we schedule in blocks to make the drive efficient. Booking a few weeks ahead is ideal, and we give you a fixed start date once the estimate is approved.
