Frankfort IL. James Hardie Siding Project

The Project Overview

Stan’s Roofing & Siding recently completed a full exterior transformation in Frankfort, IL. The goal was to provide a high-durability, low-maintenance solution that could withstand the drastic temperature shifts of the Illinois climate while significantly boosting curb appeal.

What Siding Materials Were Used for This Frankfort Home?

For this project, we installed premium James Hardie fiber cement siding for its superior fire resistance and durability. The design features:

• Main Siding: James Hardie 4x10 Panel Board in Cobble Stone.

• Accent Trim: 4-inch James Hardie trim boards for a clean, modern finish.

• Soffit & Fascia: Custom-fit Soffit and Fascia in Sandy Beige to complement the Cobble Stone palette.

Why Choose James Hardie Siding in Frankfort, Illinois?

Homeowners in the Frankfort area often ask if fiber cement is worth the investment. James Hardie siding is specifically engineered for the "H5" climate zone, meaning it is built to resist damage from freezing temperatures, moisture, and high winds—common issues in the Chicago suburbs. Unlike vinyl, it won't warp or "potato chip" during extreme summer heat.

Key Benefits of This Exterior Remodel:

• Engineered for Climate: Designed specifically for Midwest freeze-thaw cycles.

• Pest & Fire Resistant: Fiber cement is non-combustible and won't be damaged by woodpeckers or termites.

• ColorPlus® Technology: The Cobble Stone and Sandy Beige finishes are baked-on, ensuring they won't fade or peel over time.
