Reply To: Our house siding is falling apart

[hydrogenn]

Hey. We replaced our old cedar siding with James Hardie two years ago and I’m glad we did, it handles our wet winters well and doesn’t rot. We used New Day Construction, they work with Hardie products regularly. When they took off the old siding they found some water damage underneath, fixed it, added proper house wrap and then installed the Hardie. It looks sharp and the house feels tighter. Neighbors keep asking who did our siding. Honestly, it costs more than vinyl, but for this climate and resale I think it’s worth it. Ask about the finish options, factory-painted boards hold color longer.
