Re: Best Type Of Fiber Cement Siding
The nichiha is better in my opinion.
I've hung about 100sq of the lap siding so far. It's so new that I haven't been able to sell it to much. It also scares my normal builders because they are buying james hardie's name not some Japanese stuff..... I think alot of you will have trouble getting it. Since the only factory is in Atlanta by the time you add freight it get's to some area's it's get's to be to expensive. I can barely get only because I'm in the loop with a distributor that can get it here. It costs me about a $ 1.00 cheaper per piece for a the normal primed 7 1/4". |

Re: Best Type Of Fiber Cement Siding
For any of you within 200 miles of Nashville [or anyone willing to drive further to pick it up] I have a connection thru someone to get Nichiha for really low pricing. We use the stuff all the time and love it.
We pay $5.25/pc for 8-1/4" smooth or cedar and $4.25/pc for 6-1/4" smooth or cedar The guy only sells it to me in unit(s) + additional pieces The bigger the job, the lower the price and then some. Email me at tiffany@nashvillebuildingsupply.net and I'll give you his number -- he's really helpful with info on comparing the brands too..he made us a believer. |

Tar paper
. It lasts longer, holds up better and a snap to install. I prefer the black stuff
