ColorMax® Stain Finish Cedar Lap

Classic detail and sophisticated silhouettes with long lines create an easy elegance.

WeatherBoards™ Lap Siding is manufactured to look like natural wood, providing bold and traditional profiles.  Our grain pattern repeats every 48 planks – the best in the industry – which means a 20x24-foot wall, will have a maximum of only two repeats.

Innovative engineered material technology creates a product that is non-combustible, resists UV rays and moisture, is impervious to wood-boring insects, resists damage from everyday impacts and will not warp or rot.  You also get the best of both worlds with an authentic wood look architectural board developed through building science to protect your home against the weather.

WeatherBoards Lap Siding is available in a smooth, textured, Dutchlap or beaded profile to perfectly match your home’s style.

Color reflects your personality and lifestyle.  Color is important to you, that’s why CertainTeed leaves nothing to chance.  WeatherBoards offer incredible versatility and a beautiful array of ColorMax® Stains. The factory-applied stains add instant curb appeal, long-lasting durability, and enhance the authentic wood grain of the siding and are available natural looking wood stains.

First we apply FiberTect®, our proprietary primer/sealer that is engineered to seal against moisture. Our innovative ColorMax Base Coat features proprietary resins that further enhances resistance to weather.  As a top coat, ColorMax Stains provide coverage against the elements and enhance the deep, natural grain pattern of CertainTeed WeatherBoards.  Our exclusive TrueTexture™ system, preferred by 2 out of 3 consumers, is a direct transfer system from real cedar boards for a natural wood grain finish.  All are factory-applied for maximum consistency and performance, and allows for faster job completion. 

CertainTeed stands behind our WeatherBoards™ Fiber Cement products with an industry-leading 50-year warranty* with 2-year SureStart™ protection that covers both labor and materials.  ColorMax® solid colors and stains have a 15-year limited coating warranty*; and a 15-year SureStart limited labor warranty; for coating application.
