Cedar Shingle Siding for Yarmouth homes
Yarmouth Port, on the north side, is part of the Old King's Highway Regional Historic District and has many antique homes where trim and window details matter. South and West Yarmouth have a lot of mid-century capes and ranches that are good candidates for siding, roofing and window upgrades.
Yarmouth runs across the whole Cape, from Cape Cod Bay to Nantucket Sound, with the Bass River along most of its border with Dennis. That puts salt air on both shores and a lot of homes within a short walk of the water.
Yarmouth Port holds one of the best known stretches of Route 6A: Captains' Mile, about a mile and a half lined with more than fifty former sea captains' homes. On houses like these the work is about detail: replacing shingles and clapboards to match, keeping window proportions and muntin patterns right, and building new trim that reads as original.
About one in three Yarmouth homes is not lived in year round, according to the town's 2024 Housing Production Plan. For second homes we schedule work around your visits, send progress photos and video while you are away, and leave the house closed up and clean at the end of each day.
Approvals that can apply in Yarmouth
Old King's Highway Historic District Committee
Covers the part of Yarmouth north of the center line of Route 6. A certificate is needed before exterior changes visible from a street or public place, including materials, color, windows and doors, and for demolition. Replacing shingles or clapboards in kind does not need one; changing wood to vinyl, aluminum or fiber cement does.
Yarmouth Historical Commission
Runs the town's demolition delay bylaw, a review period of up to six months before a significant older building can be taken down.
Conservation Commission
Reviews work near wetlands, banks, beaches and dunes under the state Wetlands Protection Act and the Yarmouth Wetland Bylaw. State rules set a 100 foot buffer zone around wetland resource areas.

How we handle cedar shingle siding
White cedar shingles are the siding most people picture when they think of Cape Cod, and left natural they weather to the silver gray you see from Sandwich to Provincetown. Cedar shake gives a heavier, more textured look on the same idea.

FAQ
Cedar Shingle Siding in Yarmouth, MA: common questions
Do I need a permit for cedar shingle siding in Yarmouth?
Replacing siding in Massachusetts needs a building permit, normally pulled by the contractor. In Yarmouth, permits go through the Yarmouth Building Department at Town Hall, 1146 Route 28, South Yarmouth, MA 02664, 508-398-2231 ext. 1261. Exterior changes in Yarmouth can also need review by the Old King's Highway Historic District Committee, the Yarmouth Historical Commission and the Conservation Commission, depending on where the house sits, so it is worth checking before work is scheduled.
Can I replace my wood shingles with fiber cement or vinyl in Yarmouth Port?
Yarmouth Port is inside the Old King's Highway district, where replacing shingles or clapboards with the same material needs no certificate but switching from wood to vinyl, aluminum or fiber cement does. The committee decides case by case, so we bring samples and photos of the house to the application.
Natural or pre-finished cedar shingles?
Natural shingles weather to silver gray on their own, but unevenly at first, since the sides that get the most sun and rain change faster. Pre-finished shingles come stained or primed from the factory for a uniform color from day one.
