What Is Fiber Cement Siding?
Part of what makes fiber cement such a durable siding material is its unique composition. While specific manufacturer ingredients vary, these are the four most basic components of fiber cement siding:
- Wood pulp, which allows for flexibility and resilience
- Portland cement, which acts as a binder to keep the ingredients together
- Water, which activates the cement and dissolves the wood pulp
- Silica Sand

The Benefits of Fiber Cement Siding
So, why do homeowners love fiber cement siding so much? Here is a closer look at a few of the benefits you can expect when you install fiber cement siding on your home.
It Requires Very Little Maintenance
Unlike other siding materials, which must be repainted regularly, fiber cement siding is designed to look great with very little effort on your part. We recommend rinsing your siding with a garden hose once or twice a year to keep it looking good as new. However, if you do wish to repaint your siding at a later time, you should have no issues doing so.
It’s Designed With Durability in Mind
We get our fair share of weather extremes here in the St. Louis area, and fiber cement siding is designed to withstand it all. It can hold up remarkably well in harsh wind, hail, and rain, and it’s resistant to rotting, warping, mold growth, and fire.
It’s Beautiful
When you replace your siding with a fiber cement option, your whole home will get a boost in curb appeal. Available in a number of styles, colors, and designs, you can customize your home’s exterior with beautiful siding designed to complement any home style from Cape Cod to Victorian and everything in between.
