The choice for most valuable upgrade:
Remodeling Magazine says it's fiber-cement siding. 
When customers seek your advice on which products to use, you are prepared with information about quality, durability and integrity of the products you sell. You already know the value of the fiber-cement siding James Hardie offers. Now you can help your customers make their decision to purchase James Hardie with another key piece of information: The reputable Remodeling Magazine's annual "Cost vs. Value Report" (2007) shows that, for return on investment, choosing fiber-cement siding is No. 1, giving consumers back over 88 percent of their investment.
The closely watched annual study evaluated construction costs against home resale values and found that, nationally, the average return on investment for fiber-cement siding replacement was 88.1 percent. This was the highest of any remodeling project, including vinyl-siding replacement, and bathroom and kitchen remodels, projects traditionally believed to be the best investments. Remodeling Magazine has conducted this study since 1988 and is a trusted source among building and construction professionals. 2005 was the first year they evaluated fiber-cement siding replacement, and its debut at the top of the list demonstrates its value to builders and homeowners. You can read the "Cost vs. Value Report" (2007) at Remodeling Magazine's Web site here. Learn more about the advantages of James Hardie fiber-cement siding products. |
