Siding

Filed under: #06: July 2005 

Wood prices have increased dramatically over the past year. It is still the most convenient material to replace rotted, warped or damaged boards. However, homeowners have replaced their horizontal siding with a different material, HARDIPLANK (www.jameshardie.com). This is a combination fiber-cement product that is fire resistant, pest resistant, and extremely strong and durable. Most importantly, it advertises itself as having a 50 year warranty and a 15 year paint guarantee. The price is 10-15% more than wood siding but, long term, it seems to be a much more viable product. JamesHardie does not have our exact colors available at this time, but are developing new colors. They list several paints that are recommended for use with the siding and all of them have colors that match our requirements.
