| CertainTeed FiberCement Siding  Fiber cement siding continues to gain popularity among homeowners due to its green attributes and exceptional curb appeal. Now, according to a recent study conducted by Hanley Wood, LLC, homeowners can also enjoy a healthy return on investment when they choose fiber cement siding. According to the 2008 Remodeling Cost vs. Value Report, homeowners who replace their existing siding with fiber cement returned more than 86 percent of project costs upon resale. For the past four consecutive years, the use of fiber cement siding ranked the highest of all remodeling projects including window replacements, kitchen upgrades and bathroom remodels."The use of fiber cement siding, such as CertainTeed WeatherBoards FiberCement Siding, creates a win-win situation" said Thierry Denis, President of CertainTeed FiberCement Siding.
