Here are more features that set James Hardie fiber cement siding apart from all others:

• Exceptional beauty. The built-in pattern of a HardiePlank boards and HardiePlank shingles looks just like wood but will not fade or split.
• Longer service life than wood, shingle, stucco or vinyl siding. The fiber cement composition of James Hardie siding stands up to virtually any weather and remains intact to protect your home.
• Superior protection. James Hardie fiber cement siding is up to five times thicker than vinyl, so it stands up to snow, ice and hail, and is rated for winds of up to 150 mph.
• Resistance to fire and pests. Fiber cement resists fire much better than vinyl or wood and is immune to insects and rot.
• Less maintenance. Unlike other siding materials like wood, shingle or stucco siding, fiber cement siding requires very little care to retain its beauty. You can easily clean it with a garden hose.
• Paint less often. James Hardie siding holds its color up to three times longer than wood without fading, chipping or cracking.
• Color can be changed.  Vinyl siding may not need to be painted, but you can never change its color. But you can paint fiber cement siding any shade you choose should you wish to give your home a new look in the future.
• Sustainable materials. Fiber cement is composed of cement, cellulose fibers and sand. No endangered trees are sacrificed to make up this strong, durable material.
• 30-year warranty. No other siding material can approach the 30-year warranty you’ll get from James Hardie when you choose a factory-approved New Jersey siding contractor like Dior Construction to install your siding.

DIOR CONSTRUCTION’S JAMES HARDIE FIBER CEMENT PRODUCT GUIDE

HardiePlank^® Lap Siding

For an exterior look that provides the beauty and texture of traditional clapboard, but with much better durability and lower maintenance costs, Dior Construction installs HardiePlank lap siding from James Hardie. HardiePlank lap siding is available in a texture and look that is just like wood. Or you can choose a finish that is smooth, textured or beaded.

HardieShingle^® Siding

A much better choice is the remarkable HardieShingle fiber cement siding product from James Hardie. HardieShingle closely mimics the texture and look of cedar shingles.
