We are doing an addition on an old brick house and have decided to go with cedar shake shingles instead of hardi to fit in with the more natural look of our brick. We were thinking of staining the cedar shake with a semi-transparent or solid stain to match the brick -- probably a dark red, brown-red, or orange-red (we have many colors in our brick). Is there a difference in how lighter vs darker stains wear/weather on cedar shake? Or anything else we aren't aware of with staining cedar shake that we should take into account? Thanks.
