Did what it was supposed to do: replace some broken asbestos.

It was exactly what I wanted and it installed seamlessly with the older shingles on the house.

One of the few alternatives I've found for 1958-era 14" relief siding. The shingles are flat and must be firred (I used foam insulation strips) to match hang angle. I drilled additional mount holes with a glass drill bit (they are brittle,, of course). Cut with diamond angle grinder. Not too easy but came out great.

On detached garage, fits the long reveal we wanted to match our home. However a little difficult to work with, diamond saw to trim and carbide masonry to drill. Fragile generally.

Panels broke off at the pre-drilled holes during installation. They shatter like fine china when dropped…not so good to side a house with.

I had some concerns that this product might not match the existing siding on the house I am renovating. I enclosed a carport, turning it into a garage and wanted to match what had been added at some point in time. I was very pleased when I received the shipment and saw that the product matched almost exactly. The shipment came via truck and was so well packed that there was no damage. Once I began installing the product I was even happier. Taking my time cutting, placing and nailing the siding to the exterior sheathing led to a very nice finished product. I will be painting the entire exterior of the home soon for an even better match. I could not be any happier with this product or the results.

                The GAF Weatherside Fiber-Cement Siding Shingles were the acceptable size and shape. And I could paint it in the color I wanted. BUT, NOT ABLE TO NAIL IT !! Even the small nails that were recommended for it, the shingle cracked and broke. I could, by hand, break off a piece. I am curious how the GAF company would be able to install a bundles-worth of these shingles on the side of a house. Maybe there is a way, but it does not come to mind.

                Hello, each shingle comes with pre-drilled holes which are used to fasten the shingle. We're currious, did you try to face nail the product without using the nail holes? Please contact our technical services team to discuss further as when the pre-drilled nail holes are used per the installation instructions, there shouldn't be an issue of cracking as you described. Please give them a call at 1-800-ROOF-411 to discuss. gaf
