What is HardieShingle® Siding
HardieShingle® Siding or James Hardie Shake siding is a type of fiber cement siding manufactured by James Hardie. It’s designed to replicate the look of natural cedar shakes but with the added benefits of modern technology and engineered materials. HardieShingle® Siding is available in two distinct styles:
1. Straight Edge Panels: These panels feature clean lines and a more contemporary aesthetic, often used to complement modern architecture or to create a sleek and minimalist look.
2. Staggered Edge Panels: These panels mimic the staggered, layered look of traditional cedar shakes, adding depth and visual interest to a home’s exterior.
Here’s a quick summary of Hardie® Shingle siding:
- Material: Fiber cement, a composite material made from cement, sand, and cellulose fibers.
- Appearance: Mimics the look of natural cedar shakes in both straight and staggered edge styles.
- Durability: Resistant to moisture, rot, insects, fire, and harsh weather conditions.
- Maintenance: Requires minimal upkeep compared to wood shakes, no need for painting or staining.
