Shake Profile Stone Coated Steel Roofing
If you love the rustic appearance of traditional cedar shake roofing but want a roof that lasts significantly longer and requires far less maintenance, Shake Profile Stone Coated Steel Roofing is an excellent solution. Designed to replicate the natural texture and dimension of hand-split cedar shakes, these premium roofing systems combine timeless curb appeal with modern engineering.
At High Valley Roofing, we install premium stone coated steel shake profile roofing throughout Colorado. These roofs are engineered to withstand hail, heavy snow, high winds, intense UV exposure, and dramatic temperature swings while providing homeowners with a beautiful, long-lasting roofing system.
Whether you’re replacing an aging wood shake roof or upgrading from asphalt shingles, shake profile stone coated steel delivers the warmth of natural wood without the maintenance concerns.
Why Choose Shake Profile Stone Coated Steel?
Traditional cedar shakes are beautiful, but they come with ongoing maintenance and are vulnerable to moisture, insects, rot, and fire. Stone coated steel shake roofing eliminates these concerns while maintaining the authentic appearance homeowners love.
Benefits include:
Authentic cedar shake appearance
Class 4 Impact Resistant options available
Exceptional wind resistance
Fire-resistant roofing system
Lightweight construction
Won't rot, split, curl, or warp
Minimal maintenance
Long manufacturer warranties
Excellent energy efficiency
Adds long-term home value
Built for Colorado's Harsh Climate
Colorado weather demands a roofing system capable of handling virtually every extreme.
Shake profile stone coated steel roofs perform exceptionally well against:
- Large hail storms
- Heavy mountain snow
- Freeze-thaw cycles
- High winds
- Intense UV exposure
- Ice dams
- Wildfire-prone areas
- Rapid temperature changes
Â
Unlike wood shakes that absorb moisture or asphalt shingles that can crack over time, stone coated steel remains durable season after season.
The Beauty of Cedar Without the Maintenance
One of the biggest advantages of shake profile roofing is its ability to replicate real cedar.
The deep wood grain texture, dimensional shadow lines, and natural color blends create an elegant appearance that complements:
Mountain homes
Ranch-style homes
Craftsman architecture
Rustic cabins
Luxury estates
Contemporary homes
Most people cannot distinguish quality stone coated steel shake roofing from genuine cedar unless they are standing directly on the roof.
Superior Impact Resistance
Colorado homeowners understand how destructive hail can be.
Many shake profile stone coated steel roofing systems qualify for:
- Class 4 Impact Resistance
- UL 2218 testing
- Excellent dent resistance
- Reduced risk of storm damage
- Potential homeowner insurance discounts
Â
This added protection makes stone coated steel one of the smartest investments for Colorado properties.
Lightweight Yet Extremely Strong
Despite its rugged performance, stone coated steel is surprisingly lightweight.
Benefits include:
- Less structural stress than concrete or clay tile
- Easier installation
- Suitable for many roof structures
- Reduced framing requirements
- Excellent long-term durability
Â
The panels interlock securely, creating a roofing system designed to resist uplift during severe wind events.
Energy Efficient Roofing
The textured stone coating helps reduce heat absorption while promoting airflow beneath the roofing system.
Benefits include:
Improved attic ventilation
Lower cooling costs
Better summer comfort
Reflective roofing technology
Contemporary homes

Homeowners enjoy:
- Fewer repairs
- Longer roof life
- Minimal maintenance
- Increased resale value
- Reduced replacement frequency
- Better storm performance
Â
For many homeowners, this may be the last roof they ever purchase.
