Classic Construction uses HardiePlank® siding for Richmond home remodeling projects. This fiber cement siding is made by James Hardie, a nationwide leader in the siding industry, and is backed by the Good Housekeeping Seal. Here are just three more benefits of using Hardie siding in your Richmond home:
1. Look of real wood—without its drawbacks
A historically popular choice for siding, wood is especially cherished today for its unique natural elegance. But if you’ve ever actually had wood siding, you’ll be familiar with its many drawbacks: rot, mold, bug infestations, and flammability—just to name some of the most common issues!
James Hardie fiber cement siding imitates the look of wood without all of its problems. Although the authentic woodgrain texture of HardiePlank® siding is ideal for older homes or historic neighborhoods, the siding is also available in a variety of styles to suit even the most modern home.
2. Resistance to climate and the elements
James Hardie siding is made from a mixture of three elements: sand, cement, and cellulose. This mixture is then baked into the planks that you recognize as fiber cement boards. Although these planks are imprinted with woodgrain or other textures, their component pieces are much thicker and stronger than any type of wood or plastic like vinyl.
Hardie fiber cement siding makes your home safer and more durable. It’s non-combustible, resistant to melting, and rot-, fire-, and termite-proof. Additionally, the unique strength of the material is unaffected by extreme weather like freezing temperatures or high humidity, and it won’t get cracked if you accidentally nick it with your mower or edger. Because Hardie siding is so durable, you’ll spend hardly any time or money on maintenance and repair—lowering the total overall cost of fiber cement siding in Richmond.
3. Customizable, professional installation
One of the best parts of Hardie siding is the fact that you don’t have to sacrifice design for durability.
