Presidential Shake Shingles: Why Spacing Matters | Roofing Tips

One of the biggest differences from traditional architectural shingles is the attention to spacing and pattern.

To create that distinctive “teeth” pattern, the shingles need to be laid out with precise spacing. On this installation, that means maintaining 5½-inch and 15½-inch spacing between shingles throughout the pattern. It may seem like a small detail, but consistent spacing is what creates the clean, intentional look Presidential Shake shingles are known for.

When choosing a contractor, make sure they understand the installation requirements of the specific roofing product being used. The right materials only look their best when they’re installed correctly.
