James Hardie® Fibre Cement Siding Installation & Replacement

Hardie board is the world's leading fibre cement siding — a premium material made from cement, sand, and cellulose fibres that delivers unmatched durability, fire resistance, and curb appeal. At Top Choice Roofing and Siding, we install the full James Hardie® product line across the Greater Toronto Area.

Hardie board siding is engineered to withstand Ontario's extreme climate — freeze-thaw cycles, high humidity, heavy snow loads, and temperature swings. Unlike wood, it won't rot, warp, or be attacked by insects. Unlike vinyl, it won't melt or deform in a fire. It's the closest thing to a maintenance-free siding that truly lasts.

Our installation team is trained in Hardie board best practices — proper fastening, joint treatment, flashing, and HardieWrap® weather barrier installation — to ensure your siding performs as James Hardie intended and your warranty remains fully intact.

Hardie board fibre cement siding is the premium choice for homeowners who want decades of performance with minimal upkeep.

🔥

Fire Resistant

James Hardie fibre cement is non-combustible — it will not ignite or contribute to a fire spreading, providing critical protection for your home and family.

Won't Rot or Warp

Unlike wood siding, Hardie board is immune to moisture damage. It won't rot, swell, or warp — even in Ontario's wet springs and humid summers.

James Hardie backs their products with a 30-year non-prorated product warranty and a 15-year finish warranty — among the best coverage in the siding industry.

🐛

Fibre cement contains no organic materials that pests can feed on. Hardie board will never be damaged by woodpeckers, carpenter ants, or termites.

🌳

Authentic Wood Look

Available in deep wood grain textures that authentically replicate cedar, shingle, and smooth finishes — the premium aesthetic without any of the wood maintenance.

Canadian Climate Rated

HardieZone® technology means the product is specifically engineered for Canadian climate conditions — tested for freeze-thaw cycling and cold-weather performance.

Hardie Board Siding FAQs

Answers to the questions we hear most often about James Hardie fibre cement siding.

Hardie board is made from Portland cement, ground sand, and cellulose wood fibres. The combination creates an extremely dense, rigid panel that resists moisture, fire, pests, and impact — far outperforming wood or vinyl siding in those categories.
James Hardie fibre cement siding is designed to last 50 years or more. It comes with a 30-year non-prorated product warranty and a 15-year finish warranty (on pre-painted HardieColour® products). When properly installed and maintained, it truly is the last siding most homeowners will ever need.
You can choose pre-painted HardieColour® panels — factory-finished with a baked-on acrylic finish backed by James Hardie's colour warranty — or primed panels that are field-painted on site. Pre-painted Hardie is our most popular choice as the factory finish outlasts field painting significantly.
Yes — Hardie board typically costs more than vinyl to install due to material cost and the additional labour required to cut and fasten the heavier fibre cement panels. However, it adds more resale value, requires less long-term maintenance, and carries a substantially longer warranty, making it an excellent long-term investment.
Absolutely. James Hardie produces a HardieZone® HZ2 product line specifically engineered for cold climates like Ontario's — formulated to withstand repeated freeze-thaw cycling without cracking or deteriorating. It's one of the best siding choices for the GTA's climate.
