Why choose James Hardie Siding?

1. Resistance to damage. This is one of the biggest advantages to James Hardie siding, as it maximizes the lifespan of the siding, reduces the need for maintenance, and therefore increases the overall ROI. Fiber-cement is a strong, thick material that holds up against windstorms, rain and hail, and other forms of weather. It resists insect damage, such as damage from termites, and will never suffer from rot. It’s even resistant to fire, thanks to its partial sand composition, and won’t warp, flake, or peel in response to most external stimuli.
   
2. Resistance to deterioration . If left alone in reasonable conditions, fiber-cement siding has an unusually long lifespan. In fact, most varieties carry warranties of 50 years or more. Combined with the siding’s natural resistance to external damage, this is icing on the cake.
3. Lack of maintenance or upkeep costs. Some forms of siding require regular upkeep and maintenance to remain in prime condition. For example, vinyl may crack or peel, requiring periodic checks and spot-replacement, and several types of siding require regular painting to keep them looking their best. For the most part, James Hardie siding doesn’t require any maintenance – though it may need to be painted eventually (more on this later).
4. Home value considerations. Fiber-cement siding carries a high ROI because it objectively increases the value of your home. If you install this siding, then sell your home immediately, you’ll probably make back most of the money that you spent on the installation. If you know that you’re going to sell your home sometime in the next 50 years, you can consider this siding as an investment.
5. Aesthetic value. Aesthetic value isn’t an objective quality, but chances are that you’re tired of looking at your old siding, and you want something newer that’s easier on the eyes. Fiber-cement siding has a number of finishing and design options, helping you to customize your home’s exterior, so you can almost always get the aesthetic improvement that you want with this material.
