In Manchester, VT, composite siding is becoming an increasingly popular option for homeowners who want the timeless look of wood without the constant upkeep it demands. Made from a blend of wood fibers, resins, and other durable materials, composite siding mimics the charm of natural cedar while shrugging off the issues that often trouble Vermont homes—like carpenter ants, woodpeckers, or rot from heavy snow and spring rains.
For Manchester homeowners, this translates to a siding choice that balances beauty and practicality: the warmth of wood grain, paired with long-lasting performance and lower maintenance, even in the face of the Deerfield Valley’s harsh seasonal shifts.
James Hardie siding, affectionately known as Hardie Board, is a top choice among homeowners looking for a durable and reliable exterior solution.

Manchester homeowners appreciate Hardie Board for its classic appearance and toughness. It holds paint color well (or comes pre-finished in beautiful hues) and requires very little upkeep over the years. In fact, fiber cement siding has proven itself in some of the harshest winter climates, withstanding cold, wet conditions year after year without issue
