James Hardie Shingles
James Hardie Shingles are made of a
fiber-cement composite material. This technologically advanced product and other fiber cement products made by James Hardie have influenced the siding choices of builders and contractors of new and remodeled homes.
Benefits to James Hardie Shingles
The
fiber-cement technology that goes in to all James Hardie shingles is a big improvement over traditional wood shingles. While wood has a natural beauty that is hard to beat, it also is much more vulnerable to bad weather conditions and infestation by bugs and other pests.
Homeowners can
add value to their homes by installing James Hardie shingles on their aging and tired-looking exteriors. The hard composite weighs just 2.3 pounds per square foot, so while it has a substantial weight to it, it also is very durable.
Building with James Hardie Shingles
Good building practices suggest that it would be prudent to first put up a weather or
moisture barrier before installing the James Hardie shingles. There is no need to pre-drill these shingles as the material they are made of can be nailed to the frame of the house just like wood shingles. James Hardie Shingles come in
8 decorator colors or you can choose to paint them yourself with a high quality acrylic paint. These shingle will not rot, crack or split and come with a
30-year warranty.

Who can help me install James Hardie Shingles in Connecticut, New York and New Jersey?
Prime Home Improvements can! As with any shingle installation it is best to have a
trusted contractor do the work rather than trying to tackle
the project
yourself. There are many things that can go wrong and it is always more
expensive to fix a problem after the fact than doing it correctly the
first time around!
