will this work with a cedar shake roof??

Yes, as long as you are able to get the product up under the planks past where the water starts to drip into the gutter. If the planks are nailed to the edge of the roof then no, it won't work.

I wouldn't think it would work very easily - you have to lift up the shingles to slip the top edge of the screens underneath. The odds of damaging the shingles or disturbing the nails on the bottom row of shingles is too great. I have never tried it - but after a few installs of this product, I wouldn't.

According to the brochure it should work on a cedar shake roof provided you can get under the first inch or so of cedar shake parallel to the eave trough. Spend $4.00 and order the sample piece which is about 6 in. long and try it. If you can get it under and slide it along it should work.

Would work just fine, although getting the edge of the LeafsOut panel under the shingles might be more challenging, given they are more ridged than a tar shingle roof. You may need a jig/tool to lift then just enough to get panel in.

Not as is, if you fabricated some sort of base plate for it it might work but it's designed to tighten in between a floor and a roof.

No, I used it for the James Hardy 3/8(?) X 8 1/4 siding, but I think it would work equally as well for the cedar siding. There is room to allow for that thickness. I was very pleased with how easy it made putting the siding go on.

Yes it will. Easy install and has held up well while traveling with roof storage.

Yes. But be careful about hitting things...the pieces are fragile and can get loose and cracked. Powerful magnet. Do not twist on because the magnet WILL scratch your roof if you don't take it off right.

Check with your manufacturer to be sure, but I think you are supposed to also apply an oil to cedar shakes after cleaning to help seal and protect them, which also helps inhibit future algae growth. ALWAYS check with the manufacturer before doing any pressure washing on your roof as well - it will void some roofing warranties, and on other brands it is strongly discouraged.

You're welcome. I honestly don't know how this will work with sealed and unstained cedar, but this is a great product and I hope you'll give Amazon feedback on that use.

Never tried it on roofs---if the roof is "moldy" it should work. Be careful and "good luck".

I would say no. I used it on a camper roof it look good for two weeks then cracked and peeled off.

It will but I would not recomend it. It broke in the first 5mins of me using it. A gust of wind came and it snapped like a twig

It should fit. I have it on a corrolla and ends hang over the sides of the roof almost 2"

PROBABLY - be careful bottom doesn't drag on bumps.Also add straps from each handlebar to roof rack (on something) to keep it from tipping over.

Sure it will work on a metal roof but it really works best on a flat surface. You could tilt the scoop a fraction of an inch so the metal strip doesn't contact the metal roofing. I use mine on the shingle-covered roof over my deck all the time but not on the house roof (too steep for me). It seems like it would be somewhat dangerous (for you, not the scoop) on a slick metal roof anyway.

The feet themselves do not slant, but if the roof is pitched right, I suppose it would work. But it is possible that the gutters would still get in the way as they are only about 12" deep.

I'm sure it will work for you if the part of your roof just above where the edge or downspouts are is smooth so that you can pull the snow down over the edge. If you have a 'bump' type seam that is less than a foot from the edge then that bump could make it difficult to use this as the 'bump' will be in the way.

Yes most definitely! I ran several fasteners into some wood to test it out before working on my metal roof and it functioned well. The screws for metal roofing go into wood anyways:-)

I have used this device on a roof with a ridge vent. Make sure the hook clears the vent and rests on solid material.
