James Hardie Siding Certified Installers
James Hardie Siding, trim pieces, and other products are ideal if you want to protect your home with elegant, long-lasting materials that require little maintenance. At Joseph Ketner Construction, we know that a failing house exterior or improperly installed siding can lead to major water damage to your home when left unaddressed.
We alleviate these concerns by removing your existing siding and replacing it with the best products, workmanship, and warranties on the market. Our crew has installed James Hardie products in hundreds of homes, businesses, and new construction in the greater Portland, Oregon, area.
The Hardie fiber cement siding doesn’t warp in extreme weather like vinyl siding and won’t peel like painted wood siding. It’s also non-combustible, a feature that saves you money on home insurance. Every color and style matches durability with beauty–the perfect combination of form and function.
