Choosing the Right Type of Siding Installation for Your Home
James Hardie lap siding, commonly called Hardie board, is a favorite siding option. Hardie board is made to look like hardwood but costs significantly less. Types of Hardie boards include James Hardie clapboard and James Hardie shingles. In addition, we offer James Hardie batten for trim. You don’t have to worry about the high maintenance requirements of authentic wood or pests like termites and woodpeckers. Hardie board is made of cement, sand, and cellulose fibers, and is extremely durable, easily withstanding snow, ice, strong winds, humidity, and temperature fluctuations. It’s also fire-resistant because it’s not made from combustible materials. Because Hardie board resists moisture, homeowners don’t have to worry about warping, swelling, or rotting. This low-maintenance siding option also comes with an unmatched 30-year warranty offered by the James Hardie company. Hardie board is truly an amazing product with few drawbacks. However, it can be a bit pricey, and if you’re on a tight budget, vinyl siding may be the way to go.
Vinyl siding or vinyl board and batten is a lot more affordable than Hardie board. It also doesn’t require painting, further allowing you to save. Because the color is baked in and homogenous (runs all the way through), even if it does get chipped or scratched, you won’t notice on account of a color difference. Like Hardie board, vinyl is low-maintenance. Dust, cobwebs, and other debris can be simply wiped or sprayed off. For added protection and aesthetic appeal, we can paint the siding.
Another type of siding you can install is PVC trim. We use Plygem PVC trim because we like using the best materials from leading manufacturers.
Siding repair or replacement can sometimes affect electrical components, as they might be attached to light fixtures or meter masts. We can ensure that all electrical components will continue to provide power to your home.
Soffit and Fascia Repair and Installation
Although often overlooked, soffit and fascia are essential components in your roofing system. Their functions range from ventilation to protecting your roof from small animals. We help with soffit and fascia–such as wood fascia and James Hardie soffit–repair and installation, including fascia wrapping using aluminum fascia wrap or fascia blocking. Wrapping protects the fascia board from water damage and provides an extra layer of insulation to reduce energy costs. We can also apply fan fold insulation to exterior walls for further insulation.
