James Hardie Shingle siding ,Certainteed or Nichiha?
Question by : James Hardie Shingle siding ,Certainteed or Nichiha?
I’m putting Fiber Cement shingle(imitation cedar shakes) on my gables.
If you can describe the experiences you’ve had with each or any. Installers, home owners or people with friends who know about this stuff. Also how would I install fiber cement siding over my asbestos siding, or will I have to remove the old stuff with a gov cert contractor? I want to avoid paying for the removal of the asbestos…as it is innocuous when left alone. Thanks

I heard certainteed had a MASSIVE recall and a lawsuit….their stuff was shrinking I guess and they were replacing the product in SOME cases but they were not covering the labor to replace it ….do you know if they’ve addressed the problem with the shrinking and warping? I don’t know exactly what I’m talking about that’s why I need someone to tell me what the best product is to invest in.

Answer by Salted Nuts
hardie and certainteed are both good so use whichever is cheaper
never heard of the other one
they are both somewhat difficult to install mainly because of the material and there is no self aligning edge so you have to use a chalk line on each row and make absolutely certain the first row is level
edit: i dont know the details of either one but hardie has also had lawsuits for flaking discoloration cracking warping and shrinkage

I have gradually been replacing my asbestos siding with the Hardie boards. In my neck of the woods, if the asbestos are solid, you can install the cement boards over them. Begin at the bottom and work up.
If the boards have moisture damage, they must be removed and disposed in accordance with your locality’s regulations.
I love the Hardie boards, the guarantee is great, they add good insulation, cut down on noise entering your home, and paint beautifully. I am fan!.
The contractors recommend these boards. Colonial Williamsburg allows these board for renovations in the historic district because of the durability and insect resistance.
Installation is not difficult. You must use the correct nails or screws so they will not crack the boards.

Answer by T
JAMES HARDIE is definitely the best of those 3. Have used all 3.
My suggestion is to use pre-finished Hardie shingle siding with VELCUM exterior caulking. If you are using any trim around the siding then MIRATEC composite is the best. These will out perform Certainteed and especially Nichiha. Nichiha is a very low priced low grade product with numerous complaints. You can verify this on line. Certainteed has had some problems with delamination of the plies. Pre-finished James Hardie products offer the best and longest warranty.

Best answer:
Answer by I answer .. La Licenciada…
yes it did , they ruled that they had mislead asbestos victims about their ability to fully compensate the victims of the case. Also the funds for the case were lower than the claim amount and some victims didn’t receive all of their compensation. they called many of the ex heads of James hardie into court.
