James Hardie® vs. Mastic® Siding

Frequently Asked Siding Questions
How do I know if my siding needs to be replaced?
Common signs include cracks, warping, fading, loose panels, water damage, mold, and higher energy bills.
What is the best siding for Louisville homes?
It depends on budget and how long you’ll stay. Mastic vinyl costs less up front and never needs painting, but it can warp from heat, including sun reflected off nearby Low-E windows. James Hardie fiber cement is much thicker, noncombustible, and holds a crisper wood look, but it costs more and will eventually need repainting. For a long-term home, we usually point people to Hardie. For a tighter budget or a rental, vinyl makes sense.
Can new siding improve energy efficiency?
Yes, but you need approval first. Homes in a Louisville Metro preservation district or overlay zone need sign-off on exterior changes before a building permit can be issued. Some district guidelines, such as Clifton’s, favor fiber cement or wood that matches the original look when replacing deteriorated wood siding.
How long does siding installation take?
Most siding replacement projects are completed within one to two weeks depending on the size of the home.
Can new siding improve my home's curb appeal?
Definitely. Replacing old or damaged siding gives your home a fresh appearance while increasing its value and protecting it from Kentucky's weather. We offer a wide selection of colors and styles to complement your home.
