GAF WeatherSide Fiber-Cement Siding - Emphasis Shingle is the ultimate solution for replacing old asbestos siding shingles. Designed to match the classic look of many old siding shingles installed over the last 60 years, this product offers a seamless blend with your existing exterior. Unlike the original asbestos-containing shingles, WeatherSide is completely safe and contains no asbestos. Each bundle includes 11 shingles, covering approximately 25 square feet, making it an efficient choice for your home renovation needs. With a weight of 67 lbs , an exposure of 13 inches, and a thickness of 9/32 inches, this extra-thick thatched edge siding with woodgrain surface is both robust and easy to handle - plus it’s factory primed and ready to paint!

Factory pre-primed, WeatherSide Fiber-Cement Siding allows for easy painting to match your existing siding or trim. This feature ensures a cohesive and polished look for your home. The fiber-cement construction is highly durable, resisting warping, rotting, expansion and contraction, UV degradation, and even termite damage. This makes it a long-lasting and low-maintenance option for homeowners looking to upgrade their exterior without frequent upkeep. 

Installation is straightforward and hassle-free. After properly removing and disposing of any old siding in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations regarding asbestos-containing products, simply nail the WeatherSide siding in place and paint.
