What Are the Benefits of James Hardie Siding?

January 13, 2021    StateLine Exteriors

Benefits Of James Hardie SidingKansas City homeowners know the value of good siding. With freezing temperatures each winter, high winds each spring, and blistering hot temperatures each summer, our siding takes a beating 24/7 as it stands up to the elements.

When siding gets old or damaged, your home can become vulnerable to moisture penetration, opening the door to pest invasion, wood rot, and unhealthy mold and mildew. If your siding needs replacing by Stateline Exteriors, take time to learn about James Hardie siding—and understand its many benefits.

What Kansas City Homeowners Love about James Hardie Siding

As the number one siding product in America, James Hardie siding protects over 8,000,000 homes from coast to coast. Known for its beauty, durability, and high performance, the benefits of James Hardie siding abound, including:

1. Brings out the beauty in your home

Boost your home’s curb appeal with gorgeous Hardie Board siding. Increase your home’s resale value with attractive Hardie siding. The variety of Hardie siding styles make it simple to bring out the best in your home’s appearance. From popular horizontal HardiePlank lap siding to contemporary HardiePanel vertical siding, the Hardie Board line has something to complement every home architecture and style preference. Combine HardiePanel with HardieTrim to achieve the rustic chic Farmhouse look of Board-and-Batten.

2. Avoid the hassle of pest intrusion

Hardie Board siding consists of cement, sand, and cellulose fibers. Its sturdy makeup delivers pest resistance so you can avoid both the hassles and costly repairs pest infestation causes.

3. Skip the repairs needed due to woodpecker damage

Woodpeckers are attracted to wood siding and cause a great deal of damage by pecking holes in it and compromising its integrity, making it vulnerable to water intrusion. Hardie Board siding is woodpecker resistant, so you don’t have to repair and replace it like other siding types.

4. Customize your contemporary siding style

James Hardie’s latest line of siding products—the Aspyre Collection—perfectly complements contemporary or modern homes. This luxury collection combines the thick, distinctive patterns of Artisan® siding with the smooth geometric Reveal® Panel System. It delivers endless creative options for architects and homeowners to express even the most distinct style preference.

5. Choose pre-primed siding or baked-on color

Hardie siding comes two ways: pre-primed (and ready to be painted after it’s installed), or with baked-on color. ColorPlus Technology gives you factory baked-on color that adheres to Hardie siding with great strength. It doesn’t fade, resists the damaging effects of UV rays, and comes with a 15-year warranty. Choose from two distinct collections of designer picked colors: The Statement Collection, and The Dream Collection.

6. Protect your family with non-combustible siding

Wood siding fuels a fire, and vinyl siding melts in a fire, but James Hardie siding is fire resistant—so it won’t contribute to a house fire. Hardie Board siding is endorsed by firefighters nationwide. And it protects your biggest assets: your family and your home. Some insurance companies even offer a discount for homes protected by Hardie siding.

7. Notice how James Hardie siding outperforms its competition

Wood, stucco, and vinyl siding don’t stack up when compared to durable James Hardie siding. Hardie Board siding is 5 times thicker than vinyl and won’t warp, rot, fade, or get damaged easily like vinyl siding does.

When properly installed and cared for over the years, fiber cement siding lasts up to 50 years. Once you install this outstanding siding, you can rest at ease that your home is well protected for decades. Its durability stands up to the elements year-round for literally decades.

9. Enjoy low maintenance

Simply wash your Hardie siding twice a year with a medium bristle nylon brush and a garden hose in order to remove any dirt or grime that accumulates.

10. See before you buy

The James Hardie online color visualizer tool makes it simple and convenient to try different colors on your home in order to find the best look.

11. Appreciate that it’s engineered for climate

The HardieZone System was engineered to withstand the specific weather in each zone of our country—relative to their particular weather. The H5 product is ideal for Kansas City weather, and built to withstand our change of seasons, extreme temperatures, storms, rain, and high winds.

12. Rest at ease with an outstanding warranty

Hardie Board siding comes with a 30-year non-prorated, transferable warranty. As long as your siding is installed by a James Hardie Preferred Contractor, your warranty is protected. Get peace of mind that your siding investment is covered by a reputable company who will be there if you ever need anything.

13. Avoid the hassles of water damage

Some siding materials are susceptible to swelling, expansion, and water absorption—creating costly damage. Hardie Board siding resists damage from water, including mold, swelling, and cracking, decreasing the need for costly maintenance or repairs.
