James Hardie Siding

James Hardie Siding for Superior Protection Across Alabama & Tennessee
Lasting Solutions with James Hardie Siding
Life in the South has a lot to offer - warm weather, welcoming neighbors, and beautiful homes that reflect each homeowner’s unique style. But as any Alabama or Tennessee resident knows, our climate can also be pretty unpredictable. Between the humid summers, heavy rains, and the occasional storm season, your home’s exterior needs to be tough enough to handle it all without losing its charm.
That’s where James Hardie siding comes in. Made from durable fiber cement, this premium siding resists the issues that plague local homeowners. It won’t warp, rot, or crack, even after years of exposure to moisture and heat. It also stands up against pests, UV rays, and other local elements that can take a toll on less resilient siding. Simply put, it’s built to thrive in the kind of weather we know all too well across Alabama and Tennessee.
If you’re ready to upgrade to James Hardie siding, Durante Home Exteriors is here to help. For more than two decades, our team has helped homeowners across Birmingham, Huntsville, Nashville, and Chattanooga protect and beautify their homes with siding that’s engineered for lasting performance. We’d love to do the same for you. Just give us a call or contact us online to schedule your free consultation.

Benefits of James Hardie Siding in AL and TN
Homeowners who choose James Hardie siding for their Alabama or Tennessee homes enjoy a host of benefits, including:
Lower Energy Bills: James Hardie siding improves your home’s insulation, lowering the strain on your HVAC system and keeping your interior comfortable year-round.
Increased Pest Resistance: Termites and other bugs can be a significant headache for AL and TN homeowners, but James Hardie siding helps keep them where they belong - outside.
Less Maintenance: Unlike other options, James Hardie siding does not require frequent painting or sealing. A quick wash every now and then is usually all it needs to look great.
Increased Peace of Mind: James Hardie siding stands strong against extreme weather, so you won’t have to worry every time a storm rolls through.
Higher Property Value: Homes with James Hardie siding are more attractive to buyers who recognize the value of long-term protection and quality craftsmanship.
Beyond its functional advantages, homeowners also love how beautiful James Hardie siding looks - and how it keeps that beauty for decades. It does not fade easily, even under intense southern sunlight, and it’s backed by one of the strongest warranties in the industry.
When you invest in James Hardie siding, you’re not just improving your home’s exterior - you are investing in peace of mind and long-lasting curb appeal.
James Hardie Styles and Color Options
One of the biggest advantages of picking James Hardie siding is the range of styles and colors available. Whether you prefer a timeless, classic look or something a little more modern, there’s an option to suit your taste and your property’s architecture.
Popular profiles include HardiePlank® lap siding, which delivers that traditional horizontal board look, and HardiePanel® board-and-batten siding, a favorite for farmhouse-style homes that want a bit of rustic charm. For homeowners who want to add texture and visual interest, HardieShingle® siding mimics the look of cedar shakes, without the ongoing upkeep.
When it comes to color, James Hardie’s ColorPlus® Technology offers an expansive selection of fade-resistant shades that stay vibrant longer. From crisp whites and soft grays to bold blues and rich earth tones, you can create an exterior that perfectly complements your home’s design. You can even add matching trim and accents for a custom, polished finish that ties everything together beautifully.
