Commonly shed siding consists of T-111.


LP SmartSide SmartSide 48 in. x 96 in. Strand Panel Siding

Hardie Board cement board provides a non-warping alternative to wood, but the company has a bad environmental and legal record. An ongoing class-action lawsuit claims defective products. Also, Hardie Workers were harmed by asbestos.
