Siding is a very important part of your home in a couple of ways. It shields your home from harsh elements like wind, snow, and rain. To add to that, it shields your home from water, outside debris and dirt. These elements can pose some serious damage to your home if not for the protection of your sidings. Just Imagine what can happen if your siding is damaged and is not doing its job. 

For one, siding damages can cause mold growth. Also, a damaged siding is not very pleasing to the eyes. It decreases the face value of your home. This can be an issue if you plan on selling your property.  In the long run, all of this can lead to even bigger problems. Good siding should properly protect and preserve the inside of your home, so you don’t need to waste money on expensive repairs you could have prevented.

Install New Hardie Siding

Without further adieu, for this home in Milwaukie, we replaced the current T1-11 siding for Install of New Hardie siding. This replacement included the chimney’s siding. To protect the new sidings, we installed vapor barrier per manufacturer's specifications on the siding area being replaced.

In addition, we also inspected the sheeting for rot damage and replaced with 1/2” CDX plywood where needed (where damaged).

Install Hardie Trim

Apart from the siding replacements, we also installed Hardie Trim around windows, doors and other corners of the home. We then added Z-metal above the windows for extra protection. Last but not the least, we installed Pre-Primed HARDIEPLANK® LAP SIDING SELECT CEDARMILL®

Painting of Siding on Entire House

To wrap it all up, we prepped the new James Hardie Siding on the entire house for painting. We applied  2 coats of Sherwin Williams (Color Selected by Owner) paint and back roll. 

Now, look at how dainty and new this house in Milwaukie looks like with new sidings. This homeowner definitely doesn’t have to worry about repairing his home’s siding anytime soon.
