Many homeowners aspire to have a seamless connection between their interior and the outdoors. But when pests and bugs start to infiltrate the home and cause damage to your siding, then it’s a different matter that needs to be addressed immediately.
Fortunately, you can avoid the stress of insect infestation and the damage it causes by equipping your home with James Hardie siding. In this post, Precision #1 Contractors Inc. discusses how James Hardie products can protect your home from pests and other local critters.
Thickness
Made of fiber cement, James Hardie siding is five times thicker than vinyl siding. This means excellent durability and protection for your home since the material won’t easily dent or crack. Furthermore, this also prevents pests and other insects from infiltrating your home.
Strength
Unlike wood siding, James Hardie products won’t easily get damaged by woodpeckers, squirrels and other pests. It is also not prone to termite infestation, and you don’t have to worry about critters and pests eating up fiber cement. One of the biggest advantages of fiber cement siding is that it does not attract such creatures. That said, your siding contractor will likely recommend James Hardie products for your siding replacement project.
Superior Protection
Since James Hardie products can effectively deter pests and resist damage from critters, you can also have peace of mind that it won’t suffer from secondary damage caused by moisture. Of course, if your siding material is already compromised by pests or damage from local critters, it’s only a matter of time when it will be exposed to moisture, which could damage not only the siding material but other parts of your home.
