The Better Alternative:
Protection
Fiber cement isn’t just versatile and beautiful, it also has incredible protective properties. This means it can be used in many different climates around the country. Keeping our clients protected is our main concern, which is why we ensure our fiber cement products hold up against extreme weather.
MOISTURE RESISTANT
In southern, humid climates, fiber cement is a better alternative to other building materials as it doesn’t allow organic occupants such as termites and fungi to infest the siding, eventually getting into the house. Fiber cement can withstand high humidity without rotting or warping as wood products do, and even hold up against strong winds.
FIRE RESISTANT
In dry climates where wildfires are a major concern, fiber cement has fire-resistant properties and many insurance companies offer discounted premiums to homeowners whose homes are built with fiber cement.
WIND RESISTANT
Fiber cement-sided houses along coastal regions are protected from sun exposure, salt spray, and high humidity. As wind damage is a major concern, fiber cement offers hurricane resilience as it can withstand up to 130 mph or higher winds.
TEMPERATURE RESISTANT
In northern climates where temperatures can vary significantly, traditional architectural concrete becomes a problem due to cyclical freezing and warming. Fiber cement is a solution that lasts. It can withstand extreme temperature fluctuations without cracking, weathering, or buckling.
Your home should be a reflection of who you are, as well as a place of relaxation.
