Lifetime Vinyl & Wood Shake Siding by Trusted Men
Classic Design Adds Beauty & Protection to Your Home
Wood shake siding is one of the most popular exterior finishes in Long Island and the surrounding area. Installed by Trusted Men Home Services, this classic look enhances any architectural style, from historic craftsman designs to contemporary ranches.
Today’s homeowners are not limited to traditional cedar shakes for this popular look. Modern manufacturers have developed vinyl and fiber cement siding that looks and feels like real, weathered cedar. In addition, wood shake siding manufacturers have improved production techniques and finishes on real wood shakes.
