Homeowners who love the timeless look of natural cedar and slate—but want greater durability and less maintenance—often choose synthetic cedar shake and synthetic slate roofing. These advanced roofing systems are engineered to replicate the rich texture and character of traditional materials while delivering superior resistance to moisture, wind, impact, and temperature extremes.
At Star Home, we install high-performance synthetic roofing systems designed for long-term protection across Nebraska and Western Iowa. With decades of Midwest construction experience, our team ensures precise installation, proper ventilation, and reliable performance built for changing seasons.

Why Homeowners Choose Synthetic Cedar & Synthetic Slate
Synthetic roofing materials offer the visual appeal of natural products without the common drawbacks of wood or stone. These systems are ideal for homeowners who want lasting beauty with minimal upkeep.
Homeowners love synthetic roofing because it offers:
Authentic Appearance – Realistic cedar shake and slate textures without natural flaws
Superior Durability – Resists cracking, warping, rot, and insect damage
Excellent Wind & Impact Resistance – Designed to withstand harsh Midwest storms
Low Maintenance – No splitting, moss growth, or frequent sealing required
Long-Term Value – Extended lifespan with strong manufacturer warranties
Unlike natural materials, synthetic options maintain consistent performance and appearance year after year.
