“James Hardie provides the highest value siding to the end-user on the market. That is why we use it, not because it is easy to install, not because it is light, not because it takes fewer pieces to install, and not because it is easy to handle. It is because we believe that if we offer what is best for our clients, then we will have happy clients that don't have to think about their home!” ~ Jason Callaway, Callaway Construction

Many of our customers ask us what siding product we use on our homes. We tell them we’d choose James Hardie every time, and here’s why.
First of all, it looks spectacular. Whether we side a trailer or a historic home, it always gets that “wow!” reaction from customers and passersby, which is fantastic. But there is so much more to love than appearance. When you look at the benefits of Hardie fiber cement siding, it’s impossible to say no.
We all love the warmth that traditional wood siding offers. But wood is vulnerable to moisture, pests, and our extreme South Dakota weather. It also needs repainting every 3 to 7 years.
HardiePlankⓇ And HardieBoardⓇ with ColorPlusⓇ Technology have a multi-coat baked-on finish guaranteed for 15 years against fading, chipping, cracking, and peeling.
That means that you save yourself the hassle of painting your home 2 to 3 times and about $10 000 in painting costs over 15 years.
However, if you want to change the color of your Hardie siding, it takes paint beautifully and doesn’t require you to get up on a ladder and scrape off the old paint to do it. Simply have your home power washed and paint away!
No material can fire-proof your home. James HardieⓇ siding products are non-combustible, limiting the amount of damage your home sustains in case of fire.
Moreover, if your neighbor’s home catches on fire, your home stands a better chance if you have fiber cement siding than any other siding material. Vinyl siding quickly melts right off when exposed to fire from adjacent homes leaving your home susceptible to catching fire. Wood shingles fuel the fire. Metal cladding won’t ignite, but the heat they emit can cause the wood behind it to burn.
Vinyl siding warps just from having your barbecue too close to the side of your home.
Hardie siding does not ignite when exposed to a direct flame or fuel a fire. Many insurance companies provide a discount to homeowners who have James Hardie siding, which is another advantage to cladding your home with James Hardie.
Vinyl siding expands and contracts as temperatures change and must be loosely installed with space between each panel. Rain, snow, and hail can seep behind and between vinyl siding and lead to mold and rot, which requires costly repairs to the exterior of your home down the road.
But Hardie siding doesn’t expand. It is securely affixed to your home’s exterior, with each panel or board butting tightly against the other. Because it is made of moisture-resistant materials and installed securely, Hardie siding creates a barrier against water penetration and moisture.
The cement used to bind the materials makes James Hardie siding impervious to termites and other pests because they cannot chew through it.
Because it is secured to your home’s exterior and is five times thicker than vinyl, Hardie fiber cement siding can withstand impact from hail, tree limbs, flying debris, and up to 150-mile-per-hour winds.
Building codes in hurricane zones and tornado- and wildfire-prone regions require homes to be clad with fiber cement siding.
In addition, James Hardie siding won’t shrink or warp from the heat or cold, so your home will look beautiful for years to come.
With Hardie siding, you gain peace of mind knowing that your home is well-protected from South Dakota storms and can stand up to our weather year after year.
James Hardie fiber cement siding has only four low-toxicity ingredients that have been recycled up to four times - wood pulp, cement, sand, and water.
James Hardie products are made right here in the United States. With manufacturing facilities in 10 regions of the USA, you can feel good about supporting your local economy and helping to provide quality employment to fellow Americans.
