James Hardie siding, explained
James Hardie fiber cement siding costs more upfront than vinyl — typically 30–50% more installed — but it lasts longer, holds up better against fire, impact, pests and extreme weather, and usually carries a 30-year non-prorated warranty. For homeowners planning to stay in their home long-term, or in areas with harsh weather like New Jersey, the durability often justifies the difference. Vinyl remains the better choice for tighter budgets or shorter ownership horizons.
W&S General Construction LLC installs both, so we have no reason to push you either way — we'll give you side-by-side pricing for your home at (973) 536-5505 and let the numbers speak.
Yes — fiber cement is heavier and less forgiving than vinyl, and James Hardie publishes strict installation requirements (clearances, flashing, fastening patterns) that must be followed for the warranty to remain valid. Poor installation is the most common cause of fiber cement failures, which is why the manufacturer emphasizes using experienced installers.
W&S General Construction LLC installs Hardie products to manufacturer specifications on every project — our recent Hardie Board customers' reviews on Google speak to the level of detail we bring.
Properly installed fiber cement siding typically lasts 40 to 50 years, with the factory ColorPlus finish warrantied for 15 years and the boards themselves for 30 years non-prorated. That lifespan is roughly double what most vinyl siding delivers in a northeastern climate.
