HARDIE PLANK SIDING

Another versatile choice for exterior siding, James Hardie Plank offers the choice of a smooth or wood grain finish. Strapping is not required in order to install the siding over one-inch insulation, so you will save both time and money in putting up this type of siding.

James Hardie Siding typically known as a low-maintenance and long-lasting material, Hardie board siding (also known as “cement board siding”) has been around for a very long time.

Longevity: This product usually is rot and insect resistant and usually comes with a 50-year warranty.

Appearance: Varieties can mimic almost any other siding material (wood lap boards, cedar shingles, wood shake, etc).

Fire Resistance: Composed of 90 percent sand and cement which makes it fire-resistant.

Storm Resistance: Can withstand those summer hailstorms without sustaining damage.

Eco-friendly: The wood cellulose fiber used in the material quite often comes from recycled wood and reduces the use of forest lumber in the process. Hardie board does not release toxins into landfills or the environment either.
