Your siding is the most visible element of your home’s exterior, so it’s important that you choose the right material. James Hardie® fiber cement siding that we offer has a wide range of designs, colors, and sizes so you can easily create a more beautiful home. In addition, it’s durable, tough, and low maintenance.
Twin Cities Siding and Roofing gives an overview on fiber cement siding.
What is Fiber Cement Siding?
Fiber cement siding contains a mixture of water, sand, silica, Portland cement, cellulose fiber material, and other additives. These create a siding material that is tough enough to stand against any weather condition. It won’t rot or warp because of moisture. Neither will it dent nor chip. It is fire and wind-resistant, along with a long expected life span. As the premier Minneapolis siding contractor, we’ve partnered with James Hardie, the number one manufacturer of fiber cement siding.
James Hardie siding has a special color treatment process that guarantees that its vivid colors won’t fade with time. Their ColorPlus® Technology involves multiple coats of a patented finish in between curing. This creates a strong bond between material and color, and means the siding will resist cracking, fading, or chipping. James Hardie also collaborated with Leslie Harrington, an expert color consultant, to create a stylish color palette that will enhance all types of homes.
Fiber-Cement Siding Design Ideas
We’re among the most experienced siding contractors in Minneapolis, and we’ve worked on different homes. If you have a modern style home, consider vertical siding. Use two complementary siding shades to create a random striping pattern around the house. Further emphasize the verticality of your home by pairing the siding with tall grille-less picture windows.
Going for contrasting colors and shapes can also look good. James Hardie manufactures siding at different sizes. Make the lighter color the larger of the two and use this siding in the lower portion of your home. Place the darker and smaller siding above. You can also pair vertical siding with horizontal siding. Use the vertical siding to make areas of your home taller. Horizontal siding, on the other hand, can make areas of your home look larger.
These are just a few of the possible styles you can accomplish with James Hardie siding. If you need more design ideas or if you would like to see photos, we would be glad to help.
