Traditional wood siding can’t handle Columbus’s extreme weather—brutal freeze-thaw cycles cause rot, water damage, and cracking that compromises both your home’s protection and curb appeal. LP SmartSide® Engineered Wood Siding changes everything.
When you invest in your home’s exterior, you want lasting protection, impact resistance, and peace of mind. LP SmartSide® delivers on all three, engineered for homeowners who refuse to settle for less.
While fiber cement siding or natural wood siding are popular siding materials, the total project costs of choosing a material that isn’t built to withstand Columbus winters are often more in the long run when you factor in moisture damage and brittleness. Smart homeowners consider the entire process when evaluating siding replacement options.
Columbus’s 50°F to 10°F temperature swings make fiber cement susceptible to cracking and delaminating. Unlike LP SmartSide®’s engineered wood strength, fiber cement can shatter from hail or impact.
Real wood siding looks beautiful, but in Ohio, it acts like a sponge—absorbing moisture, leading to warping, rot, and woodpecker damage. LP SmartSide® eliminates these risks while keeping that classic aesthetic.
LP SmartSide® from Able Roofing eliminates constant maintenance—no scraping, no board replacement, just lasting protection and long-lasting return on your investment.
Natural wood siding requires significant maintenance every few years in Columbus. Those repair costs add up fast.
New siding installation is an asset for Columbus homes.

LP SmartSide®’s authentic textures and versatile profiles—from lap siding to nickel gap—instantly elevate any architectural style. The rich wooden tones particularly complement Columbus’s farmhouse, craftsman, colonial, and Cape Cod homes, creating a distinctive rustic look that stands out in modern neighborhoods.
At Able Roofing, we understand that color-matching your siding with roofing, gutters, and windows is the hardest part of the process. Our consultants use expertise across every exterior trade to create cohesive designs that siding-only installers simply can’t match.
“Other contractors only look at your walls. At Able, we look at how your new James Hardie siding interacts with your roofline, your masonry, and your window casing. Because we are experts in every exterior trade, from roofing to gutters, we ensure your new look isn’t just a ‘patch job,’ but a cohesive design where every element complements the next. We prevent the expensive design mistakes that single-trade installers often miss.”
Larry Barreca, Sales Manager
LP SmartSide® offers multiple styles to fit your home’s architecture. At Able Roofing, we install all of these options with expert installation to ensure your home has the perfect aesthetic match.
LP SmartSide® lap siding offers two distinct finishes—Cedar Texture for a realistic deep-grain look, or Brushed Smooth for a modern approach. These 16-foot panels feature fewer seams and weigh less than fiber cement, making them both beautiful and cost-effective to install.
Nickel gap siding features small, visible gaps between boards with hidden nails locked by fastener grooves. This trendy modern option allows for vertical or horizontal installation, making it perfect for Columbus neighborhoods like Clintonville and Short North.
LP SmartSide® Panel & Vertical siding mimics the timeless board & batten look with superior SmartGuard® protection—perfect for suburban Columbus homes in Dublin and Powell.
