How Do You Want to Enjoy your Outdoor Home this Season?

Do you love to spend time outdoors entertaining, relaxing or just throwing a stick with your favorite dog? I love beautifying the exterior of a home as it connects you with nature and your family and friends at the same time. James Hardie® offers a versatile collection of products meant to keep your home looking beautiful for years to come.

How to Choose the Right Cement Fiber Board Siding For Your Home’s Architecture:

Whether your home is a historic Tudor architectural style home in the suburbs or a Modern revival home with clean lines, there are profiles, colors, and textures to match your home.

Do you want a rustic shaker style cladding to your exterior home? Or do you like a coastal beach-themed façade? I always love how a home can change its appeal just by adding bold color or texture from its surroundings. Take a look at your façade and decide which product will match your neighborhood and environment.

• HardiePlank® lap siding – Comes in a variety of textures including smooth or beaded.
• HardieShingle® siding – Replicates the look and feel of cedar shakes but are more durable than traditional cedar. They also are pest resistant and can withstand the elements. They come in staggered edge and straight edge varieties.
• HardiePanel® vertical siding & HardieTrim® boards – When coupled together they resemble board and batten and can transform your rustic or contemporary home’s façade.
