FAQ
James Hardie cladding: common questions
Which James Hardie profile is right for my home?
It depends on the style of the home and how you want the light to fall on it. Linea suits classic and Hamptons homes, Axon and Stria give a modern linear look, and textured panels mimic render or concrete. We'll bring the options to the on-site measure and talk through how each suits your walls.
Is James Hardie cladding fire and termite resistant?
James Hardie states that most of its fibre cement cladding resists rot, moisture and termite damage, and most profiles are rated for bushfire areas up to BAL-40 (Matrix is listed to BAL-29). We confirm the rating for your chosen product and site before quoting.
Does fibre cement cladding need painting?
Yes. Most James Hardie boards are supplied pre-primed and need a quality exterior paint system to finish. We can paint as part of the job, so one team is responsible from frame to final coat.
What warranty comes with James Hardie cladding?
James Hardie offers a product warranty on most of its cladding, commonly 25 years. Warranty terms depend on correct installation and maintenance, which is why we install to the manufacturer's guide and explain the care requirements at handover.
