When it comes to protecting and enhancing your home’s exterior, siding plays a huge role. Not only does it define your home’s curb appeal, but it also shields your property from harsh weather, moisture, and wear over time. That’s why more and more homeowners are turning to James Hardie siding—a leader in durable, stylish, and low-maintenance siding solutions.


At Highland Construction, we’re proud to offer and install James Hardie products because they deliver unmatched quality and long-lasting performance. Here’s why James Hardie siding materials stand out.


1. Built to Withstand the Elements

James Hardie siding is made from fiber cement, a combination of cement, sand, and cellulose fibers. This powerful blend creates a product that resists:


  • Warping and rotting from moisture

  • Pests like termites and carpenter ants

  • Fire damage (it’s non-combustible!)

  • Extreme weather including wind, snow, and heat


Unlike wood or vinyl, James Hardie siding is engineered to perform in the specific climate where it’s installed. That means your home stays protected year after year.


2. Endless Style and Design Options

Your home should reflect your personality—and James Hardie siding makes that easy. With a wide range of textures, profiles, and colors, you can create a timeless look or a bold, modern design. Some popular options include:


  • HardiePlank® Lap Siding – A classic horizontal plank look

  • HardieShingle® Siding – Perfect for a Cape Cod or cottage style

  • HardiePanel® Vertical Siding – A sleek, modern design statement

  • ColorPlus® Technology – Factory-applied finishes that resist fading, chipping, and peeling


No matter your vision, there’s a James Hardie product to bring it to life.


3. Low Maintenance, Long-Term Value

One of the best things about James Hardie siding is how little upkeep it requires. With ColorPlus® finishes, you won’t need to repaint every few years like you would with traditional wood siding. The durability of fiber cement also means fewer repairs, saving you time and money over the life of your home.


When you choose James Hardie, you’re making an investment in your property that pays off in curb appeal, lower maintenance costs, and increased resale value.


4. Backed by a Strong Warranty

James Hardie stands behind their products with some of the strongest warranties in the industry, including a 30-year limited warranty on siding and a 15-year limited warranty on ColorPlus® finishes. That gives homeowners peace of mind knowing their investment is protected.
