Fiber cement siding products have the look and character of natural wood. Fiber cement is lightweight and resilient, resistant to water, fire, UV rays, salt spray and termites. It will not crack, rot, or delaminate. It is manufactured without asbestos, fiberglass, or formaldehyde. Fiber cement holds paint up to three times longer than wood. As a premium alternative to vinyl, consider fiber cement for your new home or residing job.

Pre-staining of all materials is available. Custom color matching and extra touch-up material also available upon request.

A few reasons why a LR Home Solutions LLC Home benefits:

LR Home Solutions prefers James Hardie� fiber-cement siding products!

Credibility heads the list. James Hardie is the only company in the fiber-cement industry that can call on 20 years of proven field experience in markets all over the world. "That's very important," says John Dybsky, Marketing Manager. "For 20 years we've continually modified and enhanced our proprietary technology creating the most durable siding product available. Volume home builders want companies and products they can trust. The fact that James Hardie products have maintained an outstanding performance record globally for over 20 years, and are continuing this performance record in the U.S. on over 2.5 million homes, provide a level of credibility that builders are looking for."

Selection, with the industry's broadest offering of textures and profiles, is another reason James Hardie is preferred. The firm is the only fiber-cement company to provide all materials for a full-wrap house, including HardiePlank� lap siding, HardiePanel� vertical siding, Hardie Shingleside�, HardieTrim� boards and HardieSoffit� panels and fascia.

Innovation is another key. James Hardie operates the only fiber-cement research and development facility in North America. "That facility," says Dybsky, "has developed such innovative concepts as our PrimePlus^TM factory-applied sealer and priming system, the ColorPlus� Collection of colors and stain for lap and shingle-panel siding, Heritage^TM Shingleside� panels, vented Hardie Soffit, 4/4 (3/4-inch)HardieTrim, and the soon-to-be-released HLD Technology TM, which will offer a lightweight fiber-cement trim board in a 5/4 (1-inch) thickness."

Support, in the form of national supply capability and strong national branding efforts, is an additional builder plus. James Hardie provides national distribution, with six production facilities across the country and a large field sales force devoted almost exclusively to supporting builder technical requirements. The firm has also worked with third-party manufacturers to develop user-friendly tools, such as a Makita circular saw and a HARDIBLADE^TM from Hitachi Power Tools.

Steps to complete Fiber-Cement Siding

• Begin the re-siding projects by removing the old siding down to sheathing, exposing any problems that you might have within the walls. Treat and replace any rotting wood, and also checks for insulation problems, there are many options for increasing the insulation in the walls. Including using radiant barrier OSB to sheath the wall back in.
• We then wrap the exposed walls with Tyvek� or an equivalent, breathable vapor barrier.
• We re-flash where needed to prevent moisture infiltration.
• We will then begin the installation of the trim materials and the Fiber Cement siding product of choice.
• Based on the application, we use either double dipped galvanized or stainless steel siding nails, then caulk all necessary seams with high quality siliconized latex caulk. We use this because it remains flexible to avoid cracking.
• The final step is the painting. We use a high quality professional acrylic latex paint for a beautiful, long lasting finish.
• Final inspection and walk through

Fiber cement, also known as cement fiber products, require specific training in their unique procedures and guidelines for proper installation. Our craftsmen will ensure your warrantees are honored should you ever need it.
