Are you a home builder? I'm definitely interested in your experience on this. You'd suggest I go for a faux wood PVC even at the higher cost?

In addition to the soffit, these are the two areas that will be accented.



I think I'm just going to do the chimney with the same hardie lap siding as everywhere else. I could do it in hardie panel board. But in any case, the entryway wall accent is not going to get really any sun at all. The front piece will, but it is north facing so it's not too bad.

I'm also planning to do the ceiling of the greatroom in tongue and groove so the idea was to have the soffit and accents match so it's consistent.
