Cedar Siding Products: “The Right Choice”
Real Cedar is renowned for its resistance to moisture, decay, and insect damage while being known as one of nature's most beautiful and versatile building materials.
James Hardie is North America's leading name in fiber cement siding, and Nicholson Cates keeps it on hand for the dealers and builders who rely on it. The full family covers lap, panel, shingle, trim and soffit, so an entire exterior can come from one system and one supplier. Each product is engineered for freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow and ice, and is available primed or factory-finished with ColorPlus® Technology.
James Hardie gives you the product. Nicholson Cates makes sure it arrives. We keep deep James Hardie inventory at our Caledonia distribution centre and ship it on our own schedule-driven logistics network. Dealers stay stocked through the busy season, and crews never stand around waiting on a missing trim package.
• Full-truckload and mixed loads: order a full season's stock or top up what's moving
• Consistent inventory: deep stock of core profiles and ColorPlus® colours
• People who know the product: a team that can help match profiles, textures and trim to the job
Cape Cod gives an exterior the warmth of natural wood without the upkeep of finishing it on site. Every board, shingle and trim piece is made and prefinished under one roof in Nova Scotia, so colour and quality stay consistent from the first course to the last. Nicholson Cates supplies the full system, including siding, shingles, trims and the contemporary Bespoke Series.
Prefinished tongue-and-groove pine, ready to install straight from the box.
Ready Pine brings the warmth of real pine to walls and ceilings without the sanding, staining and sealing. Each board is finished in the factory in Waterloo, Ontario, and end-matched, so installers get clean joints, less waste and a finished surface the moment the last board goes up. Ready Pine panels are made from select tight-knot pine grown in British Columbia's Kootenay region. Water-based stains and a UV-cured, low-sheen topcoat give an even, durable finish that's sealed on the back to resist warping. Use it on feature walls, vaulted ceilings, and covered porch ceilings and soffits. Nicholson Cates stocks the range for dealers and builders across Canada.
