Not only were we very impressed with the quality of the materials, but also with the professionalism of the staff. The reason we chose Hardie board is because of its longevity and because it is maintenance-free. It gave us a huge sense of relief and security to know that it will never have to be replaced in our lifetime. We are very much impressed with the salesman that came to our home and the project manager. Everyone was personable and we were highly impressed with their professionalism and the product itself.
