DaVinci Roofscapes, a Westlake Royal Building Products brand, manufactures Hand-Split Shake Siding that replicates the rugged, textured look of real hand-split cedar shakes. Each composite tile is precision-molded to capture the deep grain patterns and natural irregularities found in authentic cedar, while delivering the durability and low maintenance that modern homeowners demand. Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights installs DaVinci Hand-Split Shake Siding throughout Rhode Island for homeowners who want the character of natural wood without the upkeep.
Each DaVinci Hand-Split Shake Siding tile measures 18 inches tall and 5/8 inch thick, providing substantial depth and realistic shadow lines on your exterior walls. Tiles are available in two width options: 8-inch and 10-inch. The 10-inch pieces feature a simulated keyway that creates the appearance of a 4-inch and 6-inch piece installed side by side, adding visual variety to the finished wall.
This combination of heights and widths allows installers to create a staggered, authentic shake pattern that closely mirrors traditional hand-split cedar siding. The 5/8-inch thickness gives each tile a substantial feel and produces the kind of pronounced shadow lines that distinguish premium shake siding from thinner imitation products.
DaVinci Hand-Split Shake Siding is available in eight carefully curated colors designed to complement a wide range of architectural styles and regional aesthetics. The standard palette includes Bark, Granite, Sage, Slate Blue, and Taupe, each offering a refined, natural tone suitable for both traditional and contemporary homes.
For homeowners seeking an even more authentic weathered wood appearance, the Nature Crafted Collection adds three additional options: Aged Cedar, Black Oak, and Mossy Cedar. These colors replicate the look of naturally aged and weathered cedar shakes, complete with subtle color variations that make each tile appear unique. All colors are molded throughout the entire tile, so there is no surface coating to peel, chip, or fade over time.
DaVinci Hand-Split Shake Siding is engineered from virgin resins combined with UV stabilizers and fire retardants, creating a composite material that stands up to the harshest New England weather conditions. The tiles resist impact damage from hail and debris, will not crack or split in freezing temperatures, and maintain their structural integrity through decades of exposure to rain, snow, ice, and coastal salt air.
Unlike natural cedar siding that requires regular staining, sealing, and replacement of damaged shakes, DaVinci composite siding is virtually maintenance-free. The tiles will not rot, warp, curl, or attract insects, and they resist mold, algae, and fungal growth. This means your siding continues to look its best year after year without the recurring expense of professional maintenance.
DaVinci backs their Hand-Split Shake Siding with a Lifetime Limited Warranty for residential applications, one of the strongest warranty programs in the composite siding industry. This warranty covers manufacturing defects and ensures your investment is protected for as long as you own your home.
The recyclable composition of DaVinci siding tiles also makes them an environmentally responsible choice. At the end of their service life, the tiles can be recycled rather than sent to a landfill, reducing the environmental footprint of your home improvement project. Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights is proud to offer DaVinci Hand-Split Shake Siding as a premium, long-lasting siding solution for Rhode Island homeowners.
