Fiber-cement Siding
Fiber-cement siding is a composite material with a cement base.Â

Most framing contractors can be hired to install it at a separately contracted price.
Fiber-cement siding can give you a wood-like look without some of the drawbacks of wood, such as warping or rotting.
It is fire and termite resistant, and is highly durable |

It comes in planks, shakes, and shingles and must be painted.
Fiber-cement siding is produced by different manufacturers under different trade names. It is less expensive than brick and stucco, more expensive than vinyl, and comparable to wood.
Some manufacturers offer a fifty-year warranty. | Â
