For residents of Colorado Springs, siding is a major investment. One that you hope will last without damage or fading for many years. The Colorado climate makes this a tall, but not impossible order. Here at Colorado Siding, we believe that James Hardie siding is more durable than other siding choices because of the materials that are used during the manufacturing process.
If you haven’t yet heard of fiber cement siding, it has been around only for around twenty five years, but it has made a huge impact in the siding industry and is one of our preferred materials for Colorado Springs siding choices. Here’s why:
Fiber cement siding offers another layer of insulation against the extreme cold of a Colorado Springs winter, lowering your home’s heating costs. Ask us about HardiWrap insulation as well, and keep your fuel bills down and your home toasty and comfortable.
James Hardie® siding products are Engineered for Climate®. That means they are specifically built to resist the harshest weather conditions. Hail, snow storms, the sun’s UV rays, pests such as termites or woodpeckers, none of them will ruin your James Hardie siding. Isn’t that a relief?
Fiber cement siding is non combustible. In other words, this siding will not burn; it will not add fuel to a fire, which could be a tremendously important consideration in the Colorado Springs area, where wildfires have caused such devastation in recent years. NOTE: No one can say that any type of siding can protect your home from fire, however, the James Hardie fiber cement siding will not ignite in an existing fire.
Sustainable materials incorporating low toxicity natural ingredients make James Hardie fiber cement siding the green Colorado Springs siding choice.
And last but hardly least, you might be surprised to hear that fiber cement siding gives you a better ROI (return on investment) than adding another bathroom! (Based on Remodeling Magazine’s Cost vs. Value Report, which compares costs for remodeling projects with the value they add to a home at resale.)
James Hardie siding with ColorPlus technology needs almost no maintenance after its installation. It’s resistant to the elements, not edible or tasty to pests, and designed for harsh climates.
This means your siding will hold up to the Colorado Springs weather for years to come. If you are in the market for new or replacement siding for your home, why not talk to us about James Hardie products? They are a mid-priced option that our clients are raving about, for the reasons cited above and one more that isn’t in the list: they are beautiful, with options that can look like old fashioned cedar shingles, and stunning color combinations.
