Fiber Cement Siding - The Durable Choice for Your Home

The siding of your house plays an important function to your home that goes beyond aesthetics and curb appeal. Did you know that your siding also protects you inside your home? Siding acts as a barrier to the outside world. It helps to insulate your home, protects you and your family from the elements, and keeps pests out. Like your roof, siding also needs to be replaced throughout the years. There are a lot of choices for siding for your home, but nothing will truly protect you as James Hardie Fiber Cement siding paired with the skilled team at Chapman Windows Doors & Siding. 

Fiber cement siding is comprised of Portland cement, sand, water, and cellulose fibers. The James Hardie brand improves on those ingredients by including propriety additives that enhance the performance of the product which extends its value and lifespan. The outcome is a durable product that withstands nature’s elements and looks the same decades after installation. 

 James Hardie fiber cement siding is built to perform. While it is designed to withstand moisture and rot, it is also engineered to deter pests such as woodpeckers, termites, and other known invasive insects and animals. These pests are known to destroy siding but with fiber cement, you don’t have to worry - your home is protected! James Hardie fiber cement is also non-combustible, unlike other siding manufacturer's products. When it is exposed to a direct flame, it will not ignite or contribute to a fire.

This low-maintenance siding comes in a variety of colors and styles so homeowners can choose the options that best fit their desired look. Textures come in woodgrain, smooth, and stucco finish in refinished colors. You can also choose from lap siding, vertical siding, and shingle siding. There are also trim boards and soffit panels to complete the look. All of these products come in multiple color choices to get the right look for your home exterior. 

 As you can see, James Hardie fiber cement siding is built to last in all environments and climates and offers up to a 30-year warranty! That is peace of mind homeowners can trust!
