What Is Fiber Cement Siding?
Fiber cement siding is a construction material used to cover countless buildings in order to protect their underlying structure from the elements. Modern fiber cement, which is cellulose rather than asbestos-based, was invented by the James Hardie company and introduced to the market in the 1980s. The basic formula includes water, sand, cellulose fibers, and Portland cement. Manufacturers also add their own proprietary ingredients for additional characteristics and improved performance. Fiber cement can be made as an unfinished material or as a pre-painted or -stained siding product.

The Benefits of Fiber Cement
Well-installed fiber cement siding will last upward of 50 years, and even though it costs a bit more than some other siding materials, that longevity results in a lower total cost. It provides excellent protection against the elements, impacts, and pests. Fiber cement is an eco-friendly siding product. It’s an excellent insulator that results in a quieter and more energy-efficient home. The material has a Class 1A fire rating and will never rot. It also requires little maintenance over its long life.
Signs Your Home Needs New Siding
Green Eco Solutions encourages area homeowners to invest in new fiber cement siding proactively based on the age and expected lifespan of their current siding. This approach will absolutely save you money and headaches over the long run. If you have perhaps already waited too long to replace your older siding, then there will likely be telltale signs. Those can include missing panels, cracks and gaps, rot and other indications of moisture, pest intrusions, and rising energy costs.

Your Siding Options With Green Eco Solutions
Fiber cement siding is not the only siding option that we offer for your home. Our team also specializes in cedar siding, including both cedar shingles and shakes, and vinyl siding, including foam-backed siding, which is also known as insulated vinyl siding.
Vinyl Siding
Vinyl siding is the most popular replacement siding in our region. It’s an affordable option that provides a low total cost of ownership as well. Vinyl siding also requires even less maintenance than fiber cement siding as the colors will never fade, and the vinyl never has to be repainted.
Cedar Impressions Siding
Cedar Impressions Staggered Rough Split Vinyl Home Siding stands out among the various exterior home siding options available today due to the excellent value it provides. The vinyl material repels rather than absorbs moisture. It also does not support mold or mildew growth and is impervious to water damage.
Foam-Backed Siding
Foam-backed or insulated vinyl siding is similar to standard vinyl siding except that it has a foam core. That core increases the thermal resistance of the siding and thus has energy-efficiency benefits. It also makes the siding thicker and sturdier and is more resistant to impacts.
Flexible Financing Solutions
The installation of new fiber cement siding is a big investment, and we offer customizable financing solutions that make budgeting for it easier and allow you to get the new siding you need now rather than waiting. We offer both short- and long-term options. Customers who opt for a short-term plan can get a rate as low as 0% for up to 48 months, and those who prefer long-term repayment can enjoy a low, fixed payment each month for up to 120 months.
