Considering that 80% of the product up here is installed incorrectly, Hardie will just deny any claim as an installation not in accordance with the required procedures.

I recently went over to my neighbors house because he was having hardie plank installed. He told me the contractor was recommended by hardie...I had to give the guys the "HUGE 3 page full of drawings manual" (comes with the packages), to show them they were improperly installing the product.

This is only an allegation by Dewey, Cheatum & Howe, LLC. No need to say anything about it at this point, IMO.



“The things that will destroy America are peace at any price,
prosperity at any cost, safety first instead of duty first,
the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life.”
Theodore Roosevelt

Hardie Plank materials are always exceptional..
The installation is always questionable....

There will Always be, some attorney with time in their schedule to file "this" type claim......
