Caring for fiber cement siding

Fiber cement siding is durable and holds paint well, but its factory finish can be marked by high pressure, and manufacturers' care guides generally recommend low-pressure cleaning. Check your siding's care instructions if it is still under warranty.

How often: Every 1-2 years.

  • Dirt splash along the bottom of the walls
  • Cobwebs and wasp nests under the eaves
  • Chalky or dull-looking siding

Where the grime comes from
