Our Complete James Hardie Product Collection
HardiePlank® Lap Siding: The Gold Standard
There’s a reason HardiePlank lap siding is James Hardie’s bestselling product – it delivers the classic, timeless appeal that homeowners love. This horizontal lap siding creates clean, elegant lines that complement virtually any architectural style, from traditional colonials to contemporary designs.
What makes HardiePlank special? You get all the rich, natural beauty of cedar wood siding without the constant headaches. No more worrying about rot, warping, or insect damage. No more annual staining or painting marathons. HardiePlank’s engineered fiber cement construction resists moisture, won’t fuel fires, and stands up to harsh weather year after year.
Available in a variety of widths and textures, HardiePlank gives you the flexibility to create exactly the look you envision. Choose from smooth, wood grain, or beaded textures, each designed to capture the authentic character of natural wood while providing superior performance.
Hardie® Shingle Siding: Classic Charm, Modern Performance
For homeowners who love the distinctive character of cedar shake siding, our Hardie shingle siding is a game-changer. This is a product we’re particularly passionate about at North Point Exteriors because it solves such a common problem – how to get that coveted shake look without the maintenance nightmare.
Traditional cedar shakes require regular treatment, are vulnerable to fire, and can harbor insects and moisture. Hardie shingle siding gives you all the visual appeal of natural cedar shakes in an engineered material that’s designed to last. Each shingle features authentic wood grain textures and shadow lines that create the dimensional, layered appearance that makes shake siding so appealing.
Whether you’re looking to complement a Cape Cod-style home or add character to a ranch design, Hardie shingle siding provides the perfect blend of old-world charm and modern reliability. It’s particularly popular for accent areas, dormers, and gable ends where you want to add visual interest.
HardiePanel® Vertical Siding: Contemporary Sophistication
Ready to make a bold, modern statement? HardiePanel vertical siding is your answer for creating a fresh, contemporary aesthetic that sets your home apart from the neighborhood. This isn’t your grandfather’s board-and-batten – it’s a sleek, sophisticated approach to exterior design that’s perfect for today’s architectural trends.
HardiePanel comes in multiple widths and can be installed in various configurations to create striking visual effects. Use it as a full-house solution for a dramatic modern look, or incorporate it as an accent material alongside lap siding for contemporary contrast. The vertical orientation creates the illusion of height, making your home appear larger and more impressive.
What we love about HardiePanel is its versatility. It works beautifully on modern farmhouse designs, contemporary builds, and even as a fresh update to more traditional homes. The clean lines and smooth finish provide an excellent backdrop for architectural details and landscaping.
Color and Finish Options That Inspire
James Hardie’s ColorPlus® Technology takes the guesswork out of exterior color selection. These factory-applied finishes are baked on in a controlled environment, ensuring consistent color and superior adhesion that you simply can’t achieve with field-applied paint.
Choose from carefully curated color collections that range from classic neutrals to bold, contemporary hues. Popular choices include Monterey Taupe for warmth, Arctic White for crisp elegance, and Evening Blue for dramatic impact. Each color is designed to resist fading, chalking, and cracking, maintaining its beauty year after year.
Trim and Accessories: The Finishing Touches
No siding project is complete without proper trim work, and James Hardie’s HardieTrim® boards provide the perfect complement to your siding choice. These fiber cement trim pieces offer the same durability and low maintenance as the siding itself, creating a cohesive, polished appearance.
From corner boards to window trim, soffit panels to decorative accents, James Hardie offers a complete system of coordinated products. This ensures perfect color matching and consistent performance across your entire exterior renovation.
