James Hardie Unveils Artisan Lap Siding Products

James Hardie has been the world’s leading manufacturer of fiber cement siding for over 125 years. Today, they’ve taken a step forward in creating a sustainable line of single- and multi-family home siding products that’s both beautiful and long-lasting with Artisan.
When it comes to traditional materials, siding professionals sing praises to the qualities of hardwood. Whether its shakes or lapboards, wood offers a warm and natural appeal to any structure. Unfortunately, its high maintenance needs leave much to be desired. Artisan siding by James Hardie provides homes with the look and feel of wood siding, but with the strength and durability of fiber cement.
Artisan Lap Siding
The flagship choice of the Artisan line is the traditional lap siding boards manufactured from thick fiber cement but with a classic grain finish that looks indistinguishable from wood. These boards are about 0.625 inches thick and just shy of 5 pounds per square foot in weight. Artisan Lap Siding comes primed for painting, giving homeowners the freedom of choosing a color to match the exterior elements of their home.
Artisan Accent Trim
Round out your home’s appeal with the Artisan Accent Trim, the perfect finishing touch to Artisan Lap Siding boards. These trims come at a whopping 1.5-inch thickness, providing distinct shadow lines that can give depth and character to what would otherwise be just a flat siding material.

Reviews
We talked to multiple companies while deciding who to use for the exterior of our home. Safe Harbor was transparent, fast, and offered James Hardie siding compared to all the other companies only offering vinyl. Safe Harbor was much more affordable than many of the other companies, who just wanted as much money as possible. We are extremely happy with our siding, soffit, fascia, flashing, gutters, windows and the guarantee that comes with their work. If there was any more work to be performed, without a doubt, we would chose safe Harbor again.
Safe Harbor installed James Hardie siding, soffits, and gutters. The install was meticulous and our home was left cleaner than when the company showed up. The level of detail in the install was beyond expectation! We are so pleased with the quality of the work and the professionalism of the install team!
