LP SmartSide Siding
The materials we'd put on our own homes.
LP SmartSide is the engineered-wood siding system we recommend when a homeowner wants the look of wood with the storm resilience of fiber cement, without the labor cost of Hardie installation.
It is weatherproof, hail-rated, and available in textures and pre-painted finishes that read on the street as authentic wood. The system carries a strong manufacturer warranty and is one of the most common materials we deploy in Atlanta where humidity penalizes lesser substrates.
- Class 1 fire and impact-rated panels
- Pre-painted finishes (1 or 2 coats)
- Cedar-grain and smooth textures
- Lap siding, trim, soffit, and fascia in matched system
- Manufacturer 50-year warranty available

How we work
From inspection to warranty.
02
Insurance scope review
If the damage qualifies for a claim, we review the carrier's scope against what we found. Don spent 5 years as a Licensed Public Adjuster in Illinois — we know what they pay and what they leave off.
03
Itemized written proposal
Before any contract is signed you receive a written, itemized scope. Materials, labor, warranty terms — every line is explained.
04
Material selection
Shingle profile, color, gutter size, and siding texture chosen against the existing house — not from a brochure. Samples come to you.
05
Installation by our crew
Our own crews, not subcontractors. The site is protected, the deck is inspected, and the work is photographed at every stage.
06
Final walk and warranty
A walk-through with the homeowner. The manufacturer warranty is registered in your name. Our workmanship warranty is good for as long as you own the house.
Where we install it

Common questions
LP SmartSide Siding, answered.
How is LP SmartSide different from vinyl or Hardie?
LP SmartSide is engineered wood — it gives the authentic look of real wood with storm resilience comparable to fiber cement, without the labor cost of Hardie installation. It is Class 1 fire and impact rated and holds pre-painted finishes well.
Does LP SmartSide hold up in humid climates?
Yes — it is one of the materials we specify most in Atlanta precisely because humidity penalizes lesser substrates. It carries a strong manufacturer warranty (up to 50 years on some systems) when installed to spec, which we do.
Can LP SmartSide be installed as part of a storm claim?
When siding damage qualifies, we document it to carrier scope and install the replacement that returns the home to better-than-original. Don's public-adjuster background is what keeps those line items on the estimate.
