James Hardie Siding

/ Siding, Uncategorized / By

Here at Erdmann Exteriors, we are proud to work with James Hardie siding, one of the nation’s most leading manufacturers, in our siding projects. In this blog, we’ll be taking a closer look at the James Hardie company, including its core values, and plans for the future! If that sounds interesting, keep reading below for more information!

James Hardie at a Glance

On more than 8 million homes across the country there is some iteration of James Hardie siding, making the brand a staple of the siding industry. The reason for why James Hardie’s popularity? Well, as their website puts it:
 
“We’ve won over the press, the remodeling industry, and most importantly, our customers, with the beauty and durability of our products.”

The Hardie brand prides itself on offering products that are both practical and visually appealing for homeowners, particularly in that of their vinyl siding products, which we work with here at Erdmann. This is not to say, however, that their other products are of any less quality.

Leadership as a brand 

While James Hardie may be one of the most popular siding brands out there, their strength is not just in that of sales. The company has held themselves to a high ethical standard, by setting impressive environmentally-friendly goals for itself. A few goals that James Hardie hopes to reach by 2030 include: 

  • A 40% reduction of greenhouse gas intensity
  • 20 million cubic feet of additional water recycled 
  • 50% reduction in manufacturing waste intensity
These future-oriented goals distinguish James Hardie as a company with morality and drive. We are happy to work with them as they continue to achieve more sustainable methods of production.

Why We Work With them

James Hardie is one of the most widely trusted siding brands for a reason. The products that they offer continue to impress both homeowners and contractors alike, with their quality, durability, and versatility. We trust that homeowners enjoy their products as much as we do, and that our clients are happy with their performance. We are happy to continue to use James Hardie products for our siding projects!

What to Know About James Hardie Siding

With manufacturing plants in the United States, Australia, New Zealand and the Philippines, James Hardie is the largest siding manufacturer in the world. Since the 1980s, James Hardie has been a pioneer in the development of fiber cement siding technology. Today, the brand is synonymous with beauty, durability, versatility and strength. In fact, it was named the #1 Quality Exterior Lap Siding Product for 13 years running and has been named the #1 return on home investment dollars for 8 years in a row.

Fiber cement siding has the look and durability of cedar wood siding but without the maintenance needs. This composite product, made of cement, sand and cellulose fibers, won’t rot, warp or crack like wood.

“Kyle Erdmann was our main contact throughout our remodeling, and was extremely easy to work with. He had good ideas for the appearance of the house and how to achieve them within our budget. I was really impressed that Kevin Erdmann came out to the site and pitched in (no pun intended) on the roof when the weather caused delay. The siding and carpentry crews were great guys and did excellent work. The dog really misses them all.”
