Fiber Cement Siding Lasts Forever

Even we, your siding contractor, know that nothing lasts forever. Things like the weather and storm damage will shorten the service life of your fiber cement siding. So, it’s not true that fiber cement siding can last forever.

However, it’s low-maintenance properties mean fiber cement typically lasts longer than other siding options. Coupled with its innate fire and impact resistance, on top of immunity to insect damage, your new fiber cement siding will typically last as long as your house, with proper care and maintenance.

Fiber Cement Siding Has Limited Style Options

Advances in technology have made fiber cement siding one of the more versatile options in terms of aesthetics. It can mimic the look of real cedar siding, and even brick and stone. This level of versatility is unmatched in the siding industry. This is the reason fiber cement siding is what we recommend for siding replacement if aesthetics and curb appeal are your goals.

Fiber Cement Siding Contains Asbestos

Earlier versions of fiber cement siding did indeed have asbestos in them, as with any product that was supposed to be fireproof. A little known fact: fiber cement siding was originally created to replace asbestos siding and create a safer environment for homeowners. SInce 1987, all fiber cement siding from James Hardie no longer contains asbestos.
