Fiber cement siding
James Hardie®
HB Siding installs James Hardie fiber cement siding—the siding we put on the majority of the homes we side.
Made from Portland cement, sand, water, and cellulose fiber, Hardie siding is fundamentally different from wood or vinyl. It resists moisture damage and holds little appeal for termites, woodpeckers, and other pests. The fiber cement siding is noncombustible; paints and coatings may still char or be damaged by flames.
James Hardie engineers its siding for different climate conditions. The HZ5® products HBSI installs in the Treasure Valley are designed for northern climates with freezing temperatures, seasonal temperature swings, snow, and ice.
The lineup covers the whole exterior: HardiePlank® lap siding, HardiePanel® vertical siding for board-and-batten designs, HardieShingle® siding, HardieTrim® boards, and HardieSoffit® panels. Factory-applied ColorPlus® Technology finishes are baked on and cured in controlled conditions for consistent color, adhesion, and durability.
