What is Masonite Siding?
Masonite siding is a strong alternative to wood siding. Synthetically constructed masonite boards are made from a mixture of wood fibers, wax, and various resins. These components are fused together for boards that are equally dense from all angles.
Because of its strength, you will not come across the same effects that wood siding can bring such as shrinking, swelling, or blistering. Another added benefit is the cost savings that come with masonite siding.
Benefits of Masonite Siding
- Minimal maintenance
- Long-lasting
- Provides a more uniform look than natural wood
- Gentler impact on the environment due to fewer trees used in its production
- Will not shrink, swell, or blister, like traditional wood
Types of Masonite Siding
Masonite boards come in a variety of finishes and looks.
- Shiplap Edge Panel Siding – uses shiplap joints over long edges to be placed vertically.
- Lap Siding – the most common amongst siding options, horizontal boards that overlap the board beneath.
- Square Edge Siding – applied in sheets, vertically.
You can also choose from a variety of finishes such as pre-primed, pre-stained, and pre-painted.
