Cement Board – Did You Know It Is NOT Maintenance Free?

In the remodeling industry, Cement Board is often promoted as an alternative to wood siding, vinyl siding, or stucco. When installed correctly, it can look good, and many homeowners believe it is maintenance-free.

However, there’s an important detail rarely mentioned: Cement Board requires caulking at installation and every five years afterward to keep it watertight. If the caulking is not applied properly, serious problems can occur. Water can seep behind the Cement Board, causing the underlying wood to rot over time. This moisture can also attract harmful pests, like termites, which can lead to extremely costly repairs.

MAXWALLPRO’s Steel Siding System eliminates these concerns. Our system is virtually maintenance-free. Once installed by our experienced steel siding crews, there is no need to caulk. The panels are engineered to keep the weather out, providing long-lasting protection without the hassle of frequent upkeep.

So, if you’re willing to pay the extra cost and effort to re-caulk and repaint Cement Board every five years, it may be the right choice for you.

At MAXWALLPRO, we believe in investing in a product that delivers a lifetime of beauty and protection—without the time-consuming maintenance. Our Steel Siding Systems are designed to stand the test of time while keeping your home safe and looking stunning.
