Shade on a large lot
Woods keep cedar wet even when the house is expensive. Moss and cupped butts are the inspection, not the curb appeal. South slopes and north slopes should be judged separately.
Getting the job to the house
A long lane changes staging the way Alpine’s drive does. Name ground protection and where the dumpster or trailer sits. Do not price it as a curb-side colonial.
If you leave cedar or if you change it
Staying with cedar means a drying path and a tear-off of the spent wood. Switching materials is a look change you should confirm locally before you order. Any lifespan number is a planning guide.
