HardiePlank® Fiber Cement vs. Vinyl Siding – Which Is the Better Choice?

Here at Window Outfitters, we know that your home is a major investment. Being homeowners ourselves, we also know the importance of installing only the best materials on our customers’ homes, and that includes siding.

Choosing the correct siding for your home is an important decision. It can make all the difference when it comes to preserving the individual style of your home as well as protecting it from harsh elements. If you’re considering new siding, we would like to recommend James Hardie fiber cement plank siding for homes in the Minneapolis – St. Paul area.  And here’s why:

  • Durability

HardiePlank® siding is made of cement fiberboard and has been known for decades for its exceptional durability and long life.  It is much thicker than vinyl siding, making it more resistant to weather damage such as cracking in cold weather and warping in warm.

  • Style Options

HardiePlank® siding comes in a wide array of texture and colors, so you’re sure to find one that meets the styling needs of your particular home. In contrast to the relatively few vinyl design options available, James Hardie offers the tradition lap design, shakes, vertical panels, and more, all with the guarantee that you won’t have to repaint for at least 15 years.

  • Eco-friendly

HardiePlank® siding can be totally recycled, making easier on the environment than vinyl.  While vinyl siding can be partially salvaged, Hardie siding is a better choice for those interested in green remodeling.

  • Fire Resistance

Hardieplank siding is known for its superior fire resistant qualities.  Because it is made from non-combustible materials, it is much less susceptible to fire than traditional vinyl and won’t burn easily.

With all these advantages, are you thinking HardiePlank® siding is the right solution for you?  If we still haven’t convinced you, we also install insulated vinyl siding.

When you’re ready to proceed with your plans to have new siding installed, contact Window Outfitters, a licensed MN James Hardie siding contractor. We don’t just offer quality products; our siding installation experts also offer top of the line customer service and would be happy to assist you through the project.
