VERSATEX lands another large commercial project!


VERSATEX continues to make huge inroads into the commercial market through efforts with architects and general contractors. The latest victory for VERSATEX came in Plymouth, MN as VERSATEX secured the trim on the Bass Lake Town Homes project.

Early last year, the vinyl siding and trim on the Bass Lake Town Homes were heavily damaged by hail and high winds. The property management group began to research what needed to be done to replace or repair the siding on the 15 year-old buildings. They settled on James Hardie fiber cement for the siding, but trim was still in question. The management group was not thrilled with the look or workability of the Hardie trim and was seeking a better option. Through the efforts of Chris Hedlund, VERSATEX Western Regional Sales Manager, they found one in VERSATEX.

Chris met with the Bass Lake team and demonstrated the value of VERSATEX, in particular, the innovative Stealth Skirt Board. When Chris showed them how neatly and aesthetically pleasing the Stealth Skirtboard allowed the Hardie siding to achieve their mandate of being six inches off ground, the group was sold that VERSATEX was the way to go for all the trim. As the project is now underway, the owners of the town homes are also ecstatic about how the Versatex Timber Ridge finish so nicely blends with the Hardie and provides a natural cedar look that fits with the architectural style of the buildings.

Are you working on a town home, condo, hospital, dorm, assisted living center or any other light commercial project? If so, contact one of our local representatives or our engineers directly to see how VERSATEX can help.
