James Hardie fiber cement siding is the most-installed brand of siding in North America, and one of the best-suited products for Minnesota’s freeze-thaw climate. Foremost Exteriors is a trained James Hardie installer.
James Hardie invented fiber cement siding over 30 years ago, and their product line remains the industry benchmark. Here’s what sets it apart from other siding materials.
Doesn’t burn. Non-combustible — one of the most cited reasons homeowners choose Hardie over wood and vinyl alternatives.
Resists rot and pests. Mineral composition is inhospitable to termites, woodpeckers, and moisture-related problems.
Holds paint and color. ColorPlus baked-on finishes are factory-applied for long-term fade resistance across seasons.

James Hardie offers a range of siding profiles to suit different home styles, from traditional lap siding to modern vertical panels. We install every profile in their lineup.

Staggered-edge panels that replicate the look of cedar shingles without the maintenance. Ideal for gable accents, dormers, and full-facade applications.
Flat vertical panels for a modern board-and-batten or contemporary aesthetic. Pairs well with HardiePlank for mixed-profile designs.
Matching trim boards and vented soffit panels that complete the system. Non-combustible, rot-proof, and designed to integrate with any Hardie siding profile.
Engineered wood siding with a natural cedar texture. Lighter weight, easier to cut, and a strong option for homeowners who want a wood-look product.
Premium steel siding built for extreme weather. Impact-resistant, non-combustible, and available in profiles that replicate wood lap and shake.
