Siding & Accessories

• NEW! Celect V-Groove Profile & Coastal Colors – Celect Cellular Composite Siding is a beautiful, contemporary cellular composite siding that delivers low maintenance and comes in rich, lasting colors. Meeting the growing demand for clean, modern aesthetics, the new V-Groove profile adds effortless elegance to virtually any home style with its wide, flat profile, distinctive V-groove shape and striking shadow lines. Engineered to be installed both vertically and horizontally, its 12-foot length makes it perfect for vertical installations in homes with high ceilings and contemporary designs.

• NEW! Royal and Exterior Portfolio Vertälla Accent Panel – Vertälla is a bold vertical accent panel for the Royal and Exterior Portfolio vinyl siding lines, designed to add architectural interest and modern contrast to residential exteriors.

New 6”×6” and 8”×8” column wraps — available in 10′ lengths with matching caps and base sets—slip easily over existing structural columns to deliver an instant, premium porch upgrade. Originally offered in six on-trend colors, the line now expands with Rich Cedar, a new warm hue that delivers natural wood character.
• NEW! Royal Trim & Mouldings Haint Blue – Royal Trim & Mouldings are crafted from durable PVC to deliver long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance. Inspired by the century-old Southern tradition of painting porch ceilings blue, the new Haint Blue color adds timeless character with a soft, powdery hue that feels both calming and inviting. Available in the 6” Reversible Beadboard/V-Groove profile, Haint Blue offers a ready-to-install solution that can be installed as either classic beadboard or modern V-groove planking, giving builders and homeowners flexible design options across a range of architectural styles.

Roofing

• NEW! DaVinci Roofscapes Colors – DaVinci Roofscapes composite shake products capture the natural, non-repeating beauty of hand-split cedar without the ongoing maintenance of wood. The Nature Crafted Collection now includes two new colors: Timber Black and Blonde Cedar. Combining a textured shake appearance with bold hues, Timber Black features the deep grays and blacks found in nature, from the rich shades of freshly burning charcoal to the rustic black cedar trees found deep in the eastern forests of North America. Warm and refined, Blonde Cedar features distinct grain patterns and sun-kissed, light cedar tones with a subtle golden luster that brightens the roof and brings a natural, inviting mood to the entire exterior.

Stone

• NEW! Cultured Stone Color – Inspired by the expansive tranquility of vast desert landscapes, new color Salt Flat blends understated light grays and soft, warm whites with a subtle, shimmering mica overlay, creating a nuanced, versatile neutral that adds sophistication and elegance to any design. Its delicate yet dimensional blend of undertones imbues spaces with brightness and depth, effortlessly harmonizing with a wide range of other colors, textures and design elements. Available in the Cobblefield^® profile.
• Eldorado Stone Colors – The new Ranchers Ridge and Nordic Peak colorways bring versatile, natural tones to three stone profiles. Evoking the untamed landscape of America’s western frontier, Ranchers Ridge balances a sun-warmed cream base with stately accents of sand, rust and grey, available in RoughCut^® and Fieldledge^®. Inspired by the dazzling, windswept heights of Scandinavia, Nordic Peak is a refreshing neutral that blends chalky white tones with subtle variations of light grey, available for the distinctive Cliffstone^® profile.
