The product can be painted any color, making it simple to create the precise, unique look you want for your home.

LP Smart Side is a similar to James Hardie, and a favorite product among the homeowners Snap Construction works with. It offers added durability, promising to stand up against all mold, fungal decay, and termites. Snap Construction has personally tested this product in all conditions to verify the manufacturer’s claims of durability. The product is offered in a variety of styles and colors. It does not have the color customization option of James Hardie, but there are a range of colors offers. The various siding style options range includes traditional lap, panel, shake styles, and more. The product does a great job of mimicking the appearance of real wood without the maintenance. LP Smart Side is also offered at a competitive price.
