James Hardie Fibre-Cement Siding

James Hardie is one of the best-known manufacturers of fibre-cement exterior siding and trim. Its product family allows homes and larger buildings to combine traditional lap siding, vertical panels, shingles, trim and soffit within one coordinated exterior system.

Major products include HardiePlank lap siding, HardiePanel vertical siding, HardieShingle siding, HardieTrim boards and HardieSoffit panels. These products can be combined to create traditional horizontal siding, modern panel façades, board-and-batten elevations, shake accents and multi-material exterior designs.

James Hardie products are available primed for field finishing or with factory-applied ColorPlus Technology on applicable products. ColorPlus is designed to provide a consistent baked-on finish with improved resistance to fading, chipping and cracking compared with conventional field-applied coatings.

Diamond Exteriors installs James Hardie throughout Kelowna and the Okanagan for siding replacement, exterior renovations, custom homes, multi-family projects and new construction. Installation is coordinated with the weather-resistive barrier, rainscreen, flashings, penetrations, trims and surrounding materials as part of the complete exterior wall assembly.

Current Hardie siding products are backed by substantial manufacturer warranties, including a 30-year limited substrate warranty on applicable siding products. ColorPlus finishes carry separate warranty coverage, so exact terms should be confirmed for the selected product.
