James Hardie Siding in Idaho
The #1 brand of siding in America, installed by Idaho's factory-trained Elite Preferred Contractor with a 30-year warranty.
Why James Hardie is Idaho's best siding choice
James Hardie fiber cement siding is engineered specifically for North American climates, including Idaho's demanding freeze-thaw cycles, intense UV summers, and fire risk. Their HZ5 climate zone formulation resists moisture absorption that causes vinyl and wood to fail prematurely.
Unlike vinyl siding that fades, warps, and cracks, or wood siding that rots and requires constant painting, James Hardie products are built to last decades with minimal upkeep. Pair that with their Color Plus factory finish and you have siding that holds its color for 15+ years.
As Idaho's only Elite Preferred Contractor, Direct Siding is factory-trained and authorized to install James Hardie products to exacting standards, ensuring your warranty is valid and your installation is done right.

Built for Idaho weather
James Hardie products outperform every alternative across the factors that matter most in Idaho and Eastern Washington.
30-Year Substrate Warranty
James Hardie's fiber cement core is backed by an industry-leading 30-year limited warranty against defects.
Non-Combustible
Unlike vinyl and wood, James Hardie fiber cement won't ignite, burn, or contribute to flame spread, critical in wildfire-prone Idaho.
Pest & Rot Resistant
Fiber cement doesn't rot, warp, or attract termites and other pests that destroy wood siding.
Impact Resistant
Engineered to withstand Idaho's hailstorms and high winds without cracking, denting, or shattering.
Moisture Resistant
HZ5 formulation engineered specifically for climates with significant freeze-thaw cycles and moisture exposure.
Low Maintenance
With Color Plus factory finish, your siding never needs repainting for at least 15 years. An occasional rinse is all it takes.

I've had great service from Aaron and the crew from Direct Siding and would definitely recommend them. After a great deal of frustration with my previous contractor and a few dead ends trying to find someone else, I fortunately found Direct Siding.

We have a relatively large home, Aaron and his crew gave us a great price and accomplished it much faster than anticipated. Aaron was very patient on the last few 'punch out' items we pointed out.

This company is PHENOMENAL to say the least, should be 10 gold stars! They arrived as scheduled & set up & got right to work immediately yesterday morning Sept 19, 2024, & were completely done by late afternoon. Half the crew sided one side while the other half sided the other side.

We had a house from the 90s with brittle, oxidizing vinyl and lots of rotting fascia and trim. I'd been putting off a siding replacement for years. After getting a couple bids, we went with Direct Siding which was a lower estimate, but more importantly, they seemed knowledgeable and professional.
