Why Choose LP SmartSide Engineered Wood Siding Over Vinyl Siding?

• LP SmartSide engineered wood siding holds up better in real-world weather, handling freezing temperatures, wind, rain and hail without becoming brittle or sagging like vinyl can when exposed to temperature swings. Its wood-based composition with moisture-resistant waxes and resins is built to stay strong where vinyl often cracks or warps.

This keeps your siding looking great and performing as intended.

The installation timeline for LP SmartSide siding depends on your home’s size, complexity, and site conditions.
