How do wood roofing products hold up in high winds?
Wood roofing products hold up to high winds extremely well. Because each piece is individually applied with spaces between, high winds are unlikely to lift off an entire roof or sections of a roof like an inverted umbrella. Wood roofing products have survived 130 mph hurricane-force winds. Individual shingles lost due to wind are easily replaced without destroying the integrity of the rest of the roof – again saving time and money.
