LP SmartSide

What is engineered wood siding?

LP SmartSide is made from wood strands bonded with resins and treated during manufacturing. The result looks like real wood, with a deep cedar texture, but comes in long, consistent boards.

SmartSide is lighter than fiber cement and comes prefinished in LP’s ExpertFinish colors or primed so you can paint it any color.

We had an excellent experience with Perfect Siding. The crew completed the job quickly without compromising on quality. Braeden was a standout, extremely responsive and professional. What impressed us most was his attention to detail; he identified and corrected a few minor issues on his own before we even noticed them. It’s rare to find that level of proactive service. Highly recommend.

Although we went a different route, Austin proved to be a breath of fresh air. No hard selling, just polite, knowledgeable and definitely had our best interests in mind. Would recommend Perfect Siding with 5 stars all day long to anybody wishing to upgrade their siding!

Kevin and the crew never disappoint. They go above and beyond every time I have needed their services. They stand behind their work. They provide a quality service and product. Their office staff are friendly and answer the phones on your first call. I would not ever consider using another company due to the outstanding customer care and TLC they give every customer.

I couldn't have found a better company for this project. Braeden was incredibly helpful with scheduling and worked closely with me to find a price that fit my budget. As you can see in the attached before-and-after photos, they replaced and painted all of my damaged siding, addressing everything from peeling to significant water damage. They assessed the site quickly and had the work scheduled just a week later. The service, quality, and pricing were all top-notch. I 100% recommend this team!

Great customer service. I have a painting company and have been in the industry a long time and the work they did made my job how it should always be because of their prep work with their caulking and filling nail heads and the communication through the whole process. Siding was straight and sturdy. Top of the line for the right price to the customer. Grab these guys for your next remodel. They care about the customer for sure and the quality.

We had a great experience with Perfect Siding. Alicia was extremely friendly and professional from the very first phone call. She took the time to walk me through the entire process, answered all of my initial questions, and made everything easy to understand. When Austin came out, he was very knowledgeable and thorough. He explained our options clearly and made sure we felt confident moving forward. The whole team was responsive, helpful, and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend Perfect Siding to anyone looking for quality work and excellent customer service!

Prefinished ExpertFinish saves a painting step. Primed SmartSide lets you choose any paint color.
