Of course, new siding costs go beyond the initial price tag. Vinyl siding typically requires replacement roughly twenty years sooner than fiber cement options. Additionally, James Hardie offers low maintenance demands and comes with a full 30-year transferable warranty. Fiber cement siding provides a broad range of colors and styles without the need for repainting or upkeep like traditional wood. James Hardie Siding resists fading and hail damage. Simply put, your initial investment delivers long-term value.
