Yes, thank you for your compliment on this post as I have put a lot of research into the differance between SmartSide and Hardie Siding. Many homeowners are not aware of the differences between LP SmartSide and Hardie (fiber cement) siding and that Hardie comes with a 30 year warranty and the SmartSide siding comes with a 50 year warranty. The strength differences when on the walls of the home are also a big deal to Houston Texas area homeowners when considering what siding product to chouse. We are getting feedback that homeowners are liking the deeper woodgrain that SmartSide has over the Hardie as well.

Kimm, thank you for your response. I have spent a good amount of time putting together this article with all of the facts from all over the internet. Many homeowners are not aware that there is a difference between the two siding products. They are both durable however, each are different when it comes to how they are made and the warranties that are offered.

I would say the Sherwin – Williams paint (supper paint or above) and stay away from any of the builders cheap paint.

Supper Paint is what we recommend.

Do you recommend a certain paint and type that will last on the Smart Siding? Or any that you have seen that you know to stay away from.
