Why James Hardie Siding?
James Hardie siding is made from durable fiber cement. It’s designed to deal with everything Alberta’s climate throws at it — from deep freezes and snow to strong sun. It handles snow, hail, freezing temperatures, and UV exposure. It is non-combustible and resists damage from pests, unlike wood siding. With minimal upkeep, it saves time and reduces long-term maintenance costs.
The ColorPlus Technology ensures vibrant, fade-resistant colors that stay bright for years. It also comes in a variety of profiles and textures to suit modern or traditional designs.

What Makes James Hardie Siding Different?
James Hardie siding is manufactured from fiber cement, a material composed of cement, sand, and cellulose fibers. This unique composition provides extraordinary strength that surpasses traditional wood, vinyl, and aluminum siding. It is specifically engineered to perform in harsh climates like Alberta, where buildings face extremely cold winters, intense summer heat, moisture variations, and strong UV exposure. Unlike wood siding, fiber cement does not warp, rot, or attract pests—making it a low-maintenance and long-lasting solution for any type of property.
One of the standout advantages of James Hardie siding is its fire resistance. Fiber cement is non-combustible, giving property owners increased peace of mind and improved safety. This feature alone has made the siding a popular choice in residential neighbourhoods, multi-family developments, and commercial projects throughout Alberta. Additionally, James Hardie siding resists cracking, swelling, fading, and impact damage, allowing it to maintain its appearance for decades.
ColorPlus® Technology: Style That Lasts
James Hardie products are known for their ColorPlus® Technology, a factory-applied finish that delivers rich, vibrant, fade-resistant colours. Unlike site-painted siding, ColorPlus finishes are cured between coats, ensuring superior adhesion and exceptional resistance to peeling and fading. This allows buildings to retain crisp, bold colours year after year with minimal upkeep.
Property owners can choose from a wide range of textures, profiles, and hues—whether they prefer a sleek, modern aesthetic or the timeless look of cedar-grain planks. From lap siding to board-and-batten, shingles, soffits, and trim boards, James Hardie siding offers solutions for virtually any architectural style.
