Yes, Hardiplank siding does expand and contract with changes in temperature and humidity. It is a composite material made of cement, sand, and cellulose fibers, which allows it to adjust to minor fluctuations without warping or cracking. Proper installation techniques, such as leaving adequate expansion gaps and following manufacturer guidelines, are important to ensure the siding performs well over time.
