4 Reasons to Choose James Hardie® Lap Siding for Your Home
When it comes to siding, James Hardie® is one of the most reliable brands today. Over 5.5 million homes have James Hardie siding installed because it offers both durability and beauty. One of the best-selling siding styles is their HardiePlank® lap siding. This siding is fit for your Arlington home because:
1. It is engineered to withstand Arlington climate. James Hardie classifies their siding into two HardieZone® areas: HZ5® and HZ10®. Arlington belongs to HZ5, which means that the siding will withstand the varying temperatures throughout the year. This prevents mold, shrinking, cracking, and swelling.
2. It comes in different long-lasting colors and styles. HardiePlank lap siding has four styles that look good in both modern and contemporary homes. James Hardie colors in Mclean, VA, are also long lasting and fade-resistant due to ColorPlus® Technology. This process bakes the color onto the material during the manufacturing process, creating a strong bond that prevents chipping, cracking, and peeling.
3. It is more durable compared with other materials. HardiePlank is five times thicker than vinyl. This means that it will stay intact even when exposed to snow, ice, hail, and winds up to 150 mph.
4. It comes with industry-leading warranties. You can have peace of mind with this brand of siding because it comes with a 30-year non-prorated warranty. If you have trim products installed with HardiePlank, these will also come with a 15-year non-prorated warranty.
With siding from James Hardie, you can be sure that your home is protected and beautiful for many years. You can also save money on repairs and maintenance because of its durability. A new siding replacement can even pay you back up to 84.3%, according to Remodeling magazine’s “2015 Cost Vs. Value Report.” To ensure proper installation, make sure that you work with certified installers such as Colonial Remodeling.
