Expensive, but worth it !!!

A comment

Bought LATONIT. The appearance is excellent. Installation without difficulty. Very easy to process. Very high quality painting. I specially removed the platband from the window to compare whether the paint burns out. For 2 seasons on the south side did not notice a difference. Friend CEDRAL. It will be abruptly and, in my opinion, it is painted in bulk, but the price there is space.

pros

Natural, durable, does not require maintenance, does not burn, does not emit mucks when heated (fire), is well painted. You can buy and not painted 2 times cheaper and paint yourself with the best paint. I myself will do so a new home.

Minuses

Price could be cheaper. You need to think over if you hang a condo on it. The compressor creates vibrations from which the panels can begin to “play”. They enter into resonance and knock on each other. The plant paints FROM 100 sq.m. it can be difficult to play with colors.

Not cheap, but worth it

A comment

Last summer, the cottage was revetted with fiber cement slabs of Nitsikh. Initially, I was not sure of my choice, because the material is not widespread in our market, and the price, frankly, is not low. But I read a lot of articles and reviews about fiber cement, and still decided. And you know, I have never regretted it. The material is really strong and durable. Frosts survived with a bang, no siding defects were observed. In general, I do not regret that I overpaid.

pros

Frost-resistant, durable, appearance

Minuses

Not the most budget option, installing siding requires special attention, otherwise there may be bad consequences

Fiber cement siding - the best modern material for facade decoration

A comment

They built a house from a foam block, insulated it. The facade was decided to veneer with fiber cement siding company Latonit. The material met all the expectations assigned to it. The walls turned solid, they do not bend when pressed. They are not prickly to the touch and do not look like plastic. Siding was bought with a four-sided lock, due to this expansion (compensation) strips were not needed.

At first glance it seems that all panels go one to one. But in fact, during the installation process, you understand that this is the real domestic production. The seams in places were not the same. Well, by and large, this is not critical. The size of each panel is 14x306x1590. The cost, taking into account all the discounts, amounted to 850 rubles m2. The appearance of the house has become many times better, it stands out worthy among the rest of the mass of houses. Recommended material!

pros

Practical, reliable and beautiful, safe, stylish.

I really liked the operation of fiber cement siding.

A comment

Most recently, I hired workers to install fiber cement siding on my house. What can I say, the house turned out to be awesome. True, this pleasure cost me not cheap, the material itself is 850 rubles per 1 m2, plus the workers for installation. Well, okay, but now for many years the worries about the facade of the house will disappear.

Material with excellent strength, the truth is that it has decent weight. But the main advantage for me is for me that it does not burn. For the sake of the experiment, he threw the scraps into the fire, and so, when several hours passed, my surprise knew no bounds! It turned out that all the scraps were unharmed, and rubbing them even more I saw that even the paint had not peeled off from them. This is really durable material that will not peel off after 2 years. I recommend it to everyone, the quality is excellent, he will work his money for 5 years completely.

The best siding is fiber cement from Eternit

A comment

For me, there is nothing better in finishing the external facade of the house than fiber-reinforced siding. This is a truly durable option, which will last for 50 years at least. It is very easy to install, does not burn, good texture and not a bad choice among colors.

Of course this is an expensive option, but it's worth it. For myself, I purchased fiber cement siding from Eternit (a Belgian manufacturer). Installation was carried out by workers, but installation instructions were attached to the packaging with the material (so you can save on this if you wish).

Outwardly, he looks very natural, chose the Cedral texture for himself, and he looks accordingly as the most that is not a natural Cedar board. The material itself is very hard, does not push in, does not bend, it will be very difficult to break it. It is like ceramics to the touch.
He looks very, very good, was satisfied.

pros

Quality, Strength, Reliability

Minuses

Price and not a large selection of textures
