This case study profiles the installation of ASCEND 12" Board & Batten Composite Cladding by H.W. Exteriors in Hartville, Ohio. The Shaws, who relocated from a neighboring township, sought a custom craftsman home and desired a siding product that would enhance their home's aesthetics.

The product is noted for its durability, resistance to rot and insects, and energy efficiency features. The installation process was highlighted as straightforward, requiring no specialized skills or tools, and resulted in significant time savings compared to traditional siding methods. The case study emphasizes the growing trend of vertical cladding in residential home improvement and the advantages of using ASCEND for achieving a distinctive look.
