One of the best things about choosing James Hardie fiber cement siding is the design flexibility with the material itself.
Be it lap siding, panel siding, shake siding, trim products, soffit or fascia, James Hardie affords options that other products just can’t offer.
Combining your vision, our design team’s expertise, and the variety of James Hardie siding products, we can create a truly transformative look for your home.
So, how do you go about deciding what type of siding is best for your house? Let’s take a look.
What Kind of House Do You Have and Where Do You Live?
After your personal preference, the leading factor in determining what type of siding is right for your house depends on the style and age of both your home and the surrounding properties.
For example, older homes in south Minneapolis tend to have really small lap with a smooth finish. A larger lap or board and batten siding with a wood-grain texture might not fit homes of that vintage.
Certain houses don’t lend themselves to certain types of siding or to certain design features. Look around your area. Do you see a common type of siding that is specific to the age of the neighborhood?
You may want your house to stand out, but probably for the reasons of the quality of the material, your color selections, and your design features. You probably don’t want an aesthetic appearance that looks out of place.
