Hardie plank siding joints.
A common problem with cement board siding products and some other types of horizontal lap siding is that older installation guidelines called for caulking the joint instead of flashing the joint.
Hardieplank lap siding with colorplus technology is shipped with a protective laminate slip sheet which should be left in place during cutting and fastening to reduce marring and scratching.
This has proven problematic over time as caulking the joint results in unsightly surface appearances due to the different textures as well as resulted.
Color options are virtually unlimited.
We ve been providing a better way to build for over 100 years.
Use moderate contact on butt joints when joining two pieces of plank.

James hardie does not recommend using caulk or h jointers for the butt joints of hardieplank siding with colorplus technology.
Hardie board siding can be made to mimic just about any other siding material including wood lap boards cedar shingles and wood shake siding.
The sheet should be removed immediately after each plank is installed.
For colorplus products use the color matched edge coater to seal the cut end.
Place cut ends where the siding meets a corner door window trim or other break in the wall where the joint is to be caulked.
