Cedar Shingle Siding in Orleans: what's different here

Orleans is the commercial hub of the Lower and Outer Cape, about 40 minutes from our shop. It has water on three sides: the Atlantic at Nauset Beach, Cape Cod Bay at Skaket and Rock Harbor, and Pleasant Bay to the south. That means an East Orleans home and a Rock Harbor home can need very different roofing and siding details even though they are five minutes apart. Orleans also has a stretch of Route 6A inside the Old King's Highway historic district and a strong preference for the traditional cedar-shingle look throughout town.

Orleans homeowners overwhelmingly choose white cedar shingles, and on Route 6A the historic district will require an appropriate material. We install with stainless fasteners and proper rain-screen detailing.

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.

Problems we solve

  • Cracked, warped or missing siding after storms
  • Rust streaks from corroded nails
  • Soft sheathing or rot around windows and corners
  • Peeling paint that comes back within a year
  • Mold and algae on shaded walls

Materials we work with

  • Eastern white cedar shingles (natural or pre-stained)
  • Fiber cement lap siding and shingles
  • Vinyl siding in traditional Cape profiles
  • Cedar clapboard for historic homes
  • Housewrap, flashing tape and stainless fasteners

Have More Questions? Contact Us
Does Braun Construction have up-to-date licenses and insurance?

Yes, absolutely. We are a fully licensed and insured construction company in Massachusetts. This ensures total protection for you, your property, and our crew during your cedar shingle siding project.

How long will my cedar shingle siding project take?

One of our core values is strict adherence to deadlines. During your initial consultation, we will provide a precise timeline and stick to it.

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.

Which Orleans neighborhoods do you serve for cedar shingle siding?

All of them: East Orleans near Nauset Beach, Skaket and Rock Harbor on the bay side, South Orleans along Pleasant Bay, and Orleans Center. Each has slightly different exposure, and we adjust materials and details accordingly.
