Siding

We are doing a full cedar shake siding application. No hardiplank. Hardiplank is considered somewhat green for its long lifecycle and little maintenance. It holds paint really well. There is no current way to recycle it though and it may just end up in the landfills.

Cedar is a natural material. Granted some would say not very renewable, but it is local. I'm all for things that are natural. But we will have to stain/coat it every so often and that isn't really "green", but we like it and so we are doing it.
