LP SmartSide Siding

The Look of Real Wood Without the Maintenance

LP SmartSide engineered wood siding gives you the warmth and texture of real wood backed by a 50-year substrate warranty. It handles Minnesota weather, accepts paint well, and costs less than fiber cement.

The Product
What Makes LP SmartSide Different

LP SmartSide is an engineered wood product — real wood strands bonded with resin and treated with SmartGuard, LP’s zinc borate process that resists rot, termites, and fungal decay. Three things to know:

01

The 50-year warranty covers structural panel integrity, the substrate itself. That’s the core of the product. Finish warranties vary by the paint system you choose.

02

LP SmartSide accepts paint well. If you want to change your home’s color in ten years, you sand, prime, and repaint. No special coatings required.

03

The engineered wood substrate is dent-resistant and handles hail better than vinyl. Impact damage that would crack vinyl typically leaves LP SmartSide intact.

LP SmartSide Profiles
LP SmartSide Profiles We Install

LP SmartSide comes in several profile styles. Each serves a different look and application. Here’s what we install most often:

Lap Siding

The most common residential look. Horizontal planks installed in an overlapping pattern. LP SmartSide lap siding comes in smooth and cedar-texture finishes, with exposure widths from 6 to 12 inches. This is what most homeowners picture when they think of wood siding.

Panel Siding

Vertical board-and-batten and sheet panel profiles. Used for accent walls, gable ends, or full exterior applications where you want a more modern or farmhouse-style vertical line. Panels come in 4×8 and 4×9 sheets.

Cedar Texture Shakes

Shake-style panels that replicate the look of individual cedar shakes but install as a full panel. Faster install than real shakes, no individual piece splitting or curling over time. Available in staggered and straight-edge patterns.

Trim and Fascia

LP SmartSide trim boards and fascia complete the system. Matching trim ensures the entire exterior weathers and ages consistently. Available in multiple widths for window casings, corner boards, frieze boards, and fascia wraps.
