Expert LP SmartSide Siding Services in Lake County
LP SmartSide is an engineered wood siding that combines the natural beauty of wood with advanced technology for superior durability. Using a proprietary SmartGuard process, wood strands are treated with zinc borate and bonded with resins to resist rot, termites, and fungal decay.
Unlike traditional wood siding that requires constant maintenance, LP SmartSide delivers the warmth and character of wood with much better performance in Florida's challenging climate. It's a favorite among builders and homeowners who want authentic wood aesthetics without the drawbacks.
Pro Specialty Services installs LP SmartSide siding systems with proper flashing, housewrap, and finishing details that ensure long-term performance. Our experienced crews understand how to handle and install engineered wood for best results.

Why LP SmartSide Works in Florida
Termite and rot resistance is engineered into every strand. The zinc borate treatment integrated throughout the material—not just surface-applied—provides permanent protection against the wood-destroying organisms common in Florida.
Impact resistance exceeds fiber cement. LP SmartSide can absorb impacts that would crack fiber cement, making it better for areas prone to hail, flying debris, or accidental damage from landscaping equipment.
Real wood workability means LP SmartSide cuts, nails, and handles like real wood. Unlike fiber cement that requires special blades and creates hazardous dust, LP SmartSide is familiar to any carpenter and installs efficiently.

Common Questions
LP SmartSide is more impact-resistant and easier to work with, while <a href="/services/james-hardie-siding">James Hardie</a> offers superior fire resistance and won't swell if water penetrates. Both are excellent choices—the decision often comes down to aesthetics and installer preference.
Yes, LP SmartSide comes primed and requires painting or staining after installation. LP also offers prefinished options in select colors. We recommend quality acrylic latex paint for best results.
LP SmartSide is treated throughout with zinc borate, which is highly effective against termites. It's not 'proof' but provides excellent resistance—far better than untreated wood.
With proper installation and maintenance (painting every 7-10 years), LP SmartSide should last 40-50+ years. The 50-year substrate warranty reflects LP's confidence in the product.
While LP SmartSide resists moisture better than traditional wood, proper installation with housewrap, flashing, and correct clearances is essential. We follow all LP installation requirements.
LP SmartSide has good impact resistance and has been tested in high-wind conditions. It's often chosen in Florida for its ability to handle impacts that would damage fiber cement.
