See It for Yourself

Built to Stand Up to Southern California’s Fire Season

Watch how James Hardie® fiber cement holds up against the flames, side by side with vinyl, engineered wood, and cedar.

In Southern California, wildfire risk is part of owning a home. In this controlled demonstration from James Hardie, vinyl, engineered wood, and cedar siding eventually give way to the flames, while Hardie® fiber cement stays intact. It’s noncombustible, so it won’t ignite or fuel a fire.

As a James Hardie Elite contractor serving Los Angeles, Orange County, and San Diego since 2010, we pair Hardie® siding with fire-hardening upgrades like enclosed eaves and ember-resistant vents for a more complete layer of protection.
