Hardie Plank Lap Siding
FIX UP YOUR HOME'S EXTERIOR
Hardie Plank Lap Siding Experts
Have you noticed your current house siding peeling, rotting, fading, or woefully out of date? You could have someone come out, remove the peeling paint, fill holes, or replace siding that has been damaged by the elements. If you have wood siding, this is something you’ll have to get used to.
Vinyl siding fades over time, aluminum siding is easily dinged or dented, and some older homes that have asbestos tiles for siding can be a health hazard! Why not consider Hardie Plank Lap Siding and leave many of those repairs and maintenance issues in the rear-view window?
Engineered for climates throughout the United States, James Hardie fiber cement siding is the most popular brand of siding in the country. The product resists pests including termites, stands up to the rain, snow, ice, and other weather conditions found in the Pacific Northwest, and looks great with very little maintenance.


CLEAN LOOK AND DURABILITY

James Hardie offers this product in a wide variety of colors: their Statement Collection chooses the most popular colors and engineers them into the siding. Already have a color picked out? Hardie Plank products are also primed for paint, meaning as soon as it’s installed they’re ready for any and every color of the rainbow.
