4 Reasons James Hardie® is One of the Top Siding Brands

When it comes to material for your home’s exterior, it pays to make informed decisions. Take the siding, for instance. Along with your roof, windows and doors, your home’s siding plays a big part in protecting you and your family from the elements. Make sure your choice will last long to avoid frequent replacement and bigger expenses in the long run.

At Colonial Remodeling, we are proud to offer siding products from one of the industry leaders today: James Hardie®.  With James Hardie siding in Arlington VA, you have the advantage of a beautiful and durable exterior that will last long. Here are four reasons they are one of the leading brands in the siding industry:

1. HardiePlank® Lap Siding is Backed by the Good Housekeeping Seal — James Hardie was awarded the Good Housekeeping Seal by the Good Housekeeping Research Institute in May 2013. The seal is a top indicator of quality. This is granted only after a rigorous evaluation by a team of scientists, engineers, and researchers. In fact, it is a sought-after distinction by every manufacturer of household products.

2. James Hardie Consistently Receives Accolades — The brand’s fiber cement products constantly receive praise from contractor-focused publications, style-centric consumer magazines, and media that focuses on environmentally-friendly building. They include Builder, DIY Blog Cabin, and Qualified Remodeler, among others. In addition, Remodeling Magazine’s annual “Cost vs. Value Report” revealed that among other home improvement projects, re-siding with fiber cement is consistently ranked as #1 among other home improvement projects with the biggest ROI.

3. Fiber Cement Siding Offers Lifetime Value — Apart from its inherent resistance to fire and pests, James Hardie manufactures the only siding in the industry that’s customized for a specific regional climate, thanks to their HardieZone® system. It means that wherever you are, the appropriate kind of James Hardie siding will be available. Their ColorPlus® Technology also means you get James Hardie colors in McLean VA that don’t require painting, yet last longer than a typical paint job.

4. Their Products are Energy-Efficient – Rest assured that your home’s energy consumption won’t be compromised when we install James Hardie siding. In fact, thanks to the HardieZone technology, you can be sure that your siding will counteract the harsh elements. This will then lead to lower energy expenses and greater savings.
