We understand the importance of your home’s value along with the investment decision of wanting a low maintenance exterior with years of protection.
Unlike wood-based siding, James Hardie products are specifically engineered to withstand damage from moisture and rot.
James Hardie products are non-combustible, verified under ASTM E136, with a flame spread index of zero under ASTM E84. This applies to the fiber cement substrate; applied paints and coatings may char when exposed to flame. Some insurers offer a premium discount for non-combustible cladding. Availability and amount vary by carrier, so check with yours.
Because it’s not wood, James Hardie's siding cannot be pecked by birds or damaged by wood-boring insects.
Fiber cement resists impact from hail and windblown debris better than wood or vinyl, and James Hardie engineers its products by climate zone, with the HZ5 line specified for Colorado's freeze-thaw cycles and high-altitude sun.
Factory-applied, baked-on color with a durable, UV-resistant finish, backed by a 15-year limited finish warranty from James Hardie covering peeling, cracking, and chipping.
James Hardie siding comes with a 30-year, non-prorated warranty, and trim products come with a 15-year, non-prorated warranty.

Curious about James Hardie siding? We have the answers.
James Hardie siding is made of fiber cement, which is a durable material that is resistant to fire, rot, and pests.
GS Exterior Experts are one of the top suppliers of James Hardie Siding in Denver. We are also proudly one of the top James Hardie siding installation companies in Colorado.
With proper care and maintenance, James Hardie siding can last for decades in Colorado. ColorPlus® Technology is a factory-applied, baked-on finish backed by a 15-year limited warranty from James Hardie covering peeling, cracking, and chipping, including both paint and labor. Like any exterior finish, it weathers gradually over time. The warranty covers excess color change beyond normal weathering.
James Hardie siding styles come in a wide range to suit any taste. For a traditional look, the Lap Siding features wide boards with beveled edges. The James Hardie Vertical Siding option creates a more modern aesthetic with narrow boards that are installed in a vertical orientation. If you’re looking for something truly unique, the James Hardie Shingle Siding style features rough-hewn boards with a textured surface. HardieShingle carries the same 30-year non-prorated substrate warranty as the rest of the Hardie siding line.
Vinyl is the least expensive option upfront. Hardie fiber cement costs more but carries a 30-year non-prorated substrate warranty, where vinyl warranty terms vary widely by manufacturer. Brick is typically the most expensive and needs the least refinishing over its service life. For a mid-priced option with a long warranty term, Hardie is worth comparing.
It is important to follow some basic care guidelines in order to keep your siding looking its best. Regularly sweep or hose down your siding to remove any dirt or debris. You should also inspect your siding periodically for any signs of damage, such as cracks or chips. If you do notice any damage, you should promptly have it repaired in order to prevent further deterioration. And, you should avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleansers when cleaning your siding, as these can damage the finish. By following these simple care instructions, you can keep your James Hardie siding looking its best for years to come.
Do you want materials that will look great and stand the test of time? If so, James Hardie siding could be right for your renovation projects. James Hardie siding is made from fiber cement, so it will not rot and is not a food source for wood-boring insects. Because James Hardie siding is available in a variety of styles and colors, it’s easy to find an option that will complement your home’s existing exterior.
If you’re unsure, you should consult with an expert to determine whether or not James Hardie is right for your home renovation project.
James Hardie backs its siding, trim, and soffit with a 30-year, non-prorated limited warranty. ColorPlus® Technology finishes carry a separate 15-year warranty covering peeling, cracking, and chipping, including paint and labor. HardieTrim is 15 years. Coverage transfers once, applies to materials rather than labor, and requires installation to James Hardie specs using the HZ5 product line for Colorado. Our workmanship warranty covers the install.
The answer may depend on your level of experience and comfort with tools. James Hardie siding comes in large panels that need to be cut to fit your home’s dimensions. If you are confident in your ability to make precise cuts and you have all the necessary tools, then you may be able to install the siding yourself. However, if you are not comfortable working with power tools or you are not confident in your ability to get a clean cut, then it is probably best to hire a professional. Professional contractors have the advantage of being able to work more quickly and efficiently, which can save you time and money in the long run.
At GS Exterior Experts, we offer professional installation of James Hardie siding in Denver.
