Wood that has been re-engineered around its weaknesses
Real timber siding rots at the cut ends, splits at the fasteners and feeds insects. LP takes wood strands, treats them with zinc borate, binds them in resin and compresses them, which addresses all three. The result takes a nail without splitting, holds paint far longer than raw cedar, and carries a hail rating that surprises people who assume anything wood-based is fragile. It is also thicker than vinyl, so the shadow line at each course reads much closer to a painted board. For a mineral-based alternative with a similar profile, James Hardie siding replacement covers the fiber cement route and how the two differ in practice.
What the work includes
Every lp siding replacement quote we write covers the following as standard, not as an upsell.
- Pre-finished or field-finished boards, sealed on all four edges
- Every cut end resealed on site before the board goes up
- Corrected house wrap and window flashing behind the new wall
- Fastener pattern and spacing set to the manufacturer schedule
- Matching trim, corner boards and soffit from the same system
- System warranty registered against the property on completion
Why homeowners choose lp siding replacement
Treated all the way through
The zinc borate treatment runs through the strand, not just across the face, so a cut edge is protected the same way the surface is.
A shadow line vinyl cannot reach
The boards are substantially thicker, so each course throws a real shadow. On a traditional elevation that depth is what makes the wall read as wood.
Takes impact without shattering
Engineered wood absorbs a hail strike where a brittle product cracks. It is a meaningful difference on exposed west and south walls.

LP SmartSide questions
What homeowners ask us most about this work. If yours is not here, call and ask.
How is LP different from ordinary wood siding?
It is wood strands treated and compressed rather than sawn boards. That removes the split, rot and insect problems of solid timber while keeping the grain, and it holds a finish considerably longer than raw cedar.
Does it need painting?
Pre-finished boards arrive coated and carry a long finish warranty. Field-finished boards need painting after installation, and either way the repaint interval is far longer than solid wood.
Why does sealing the cut ends matter so much?
A cut end exposes untreated strand to water. Sealing every cut on site is the single step that separates an LP wall that lasts from one that swells at the corners in five years, and it is where rushed installs cut time.
