The exterior is primarily clad in textured 18" NuCedar RoughSawn Shingles finished in a vibrant, natural Cedar color. The warmth of the shingles is complemented by a lower section of contrasting grey vertical siding. Crisp white trim and substantial white columns frame the windows, while a dark standing-seam metal roof over the prominent gabled entryway provides a bold, contemporary finish with excellent curb appeal.

Home in Coquitlam, British Columbia got a complete overhaul of the exterior. Previously outdated vinyl siding and make-shift detailing, is now designed with James Hardie siding.

Paul Despenas: Mason City, Iowa: Homeowners in Asbury Neighborhood see new type of siding being installed. Since the neighborhood was built from the late 1970’s through the late 1980’s homeowners were restricted to using only wood or masonry products on their homes. This meant, homeowners were stuck with painting, staining and constant repairing of the wood trims, siding and window sills and casings. If you have ever owned a home with wood siding you know what kind of maintenance needs to be done with the type of weather conditions Iowa delivers. On an average those homeowners could realistically spend $1,000.00 per year maintaining the home. Back in the early 2000’s this neighborhood accepted the installation of fiber cement siding. Little did homeowners realize, they still had to maintain the home, painting, and constant caulking of the siding joints and around the trim boards to prevent any water and /or air infiltration. After many homeowners from this neighborhood inquired about American Classic Cedar Grain Polymeric Siding and 2 years of working with the neighborhood association, American Classic Cedar Grain Polymeric Siding has been approved for installation. American Classic Polymeric Cladding was designed for those home owners who were considering a fiber cement product on their home. They liked the appearance not because it was energy efficient or maintenance free they just liked the plank appearance. American Classic Polymeric Cladding exhibits the perfect blend of natural beauty and rugged construction. It combines a resilient polymer base with an inorganic mineral to yield performance and long lasting good looks, And, unlike wood cladding and fiber cement, it won’t absorb moisture that can lead to warping, swelling and rotting. American Classic Polymeric Cladding is available in 2 different profiles and colors ranging from bold to subtle, striking to soothing. American Classic Cedar Grain Plank Polymeric Siding carries a Life Time Limited Warranty with Lifetime Fade Protection.
