Is your home’s siding cracking, warping or shrinking? You may have access to money to have your siding replaced.
In 2013, Certainteed agreed to a settlement of a class action lawsuit related to its CertainTeed Weatherboards™ Fiber Cement Siding, Lap Siding, Vertical Siding, Shapes, Soffit, Porch Ceiling, and 7/16″ Trim installed before September 30, 2013.
Although Certainteed believes this particular siding product has performed well over many years, it agreed to the settlement to avoid the expense of ongoing litigation. Certainteed will pay just over $100 million to fund the settlement and the settlement provides a better remedy than what is offered under the current product warranty.
There are resources you can check out to see if your home is covered in this settlement. If you had this particular brand of Certainteed fiber cement siding installed on your Portland, OR home on or before September 30, 2013, you may be eligible to receive settlement funds.
