Siding — Common Questions
Is fiber cement siding worth it in a coastal climate?
Yes — fiber cement (including Hardie) resists salt air, humidity, and wind-driven rain far better than wood, which is why it dominates coastal Lowcountry construction. GMR installs fiber cement lap, panel, shingle, and board-and-batten profiles with the flashing and moisture details the coast demands.
Do you re-side existing homes or only new construction?
Both. GMR sides new builds as part of a framing package and re-sides established homes across the Savannah area, including full trim, soffit, and fascia replacement.
What is a rain screen and do I need one?
A rain screen is a drainage gap behind the siding that lets moisture escape instead of rotting the wall. In our humid coastal climate it is cheap insurance, and GMR details housewrap, flashing, and drainage on every siding job.
Which siding profiles do you install?
Lap siding, board-and-batten, shake and shingle, and panel systems — in fiber cement and engineered materials suited to salt air, with complete exterior trim packages to match.
