Fiber Cement Siding Installation
Our Fiber Cement Siding Installation Process
In-Home Consultation & Assessment
We begin with a visit to your home to evaluate your existing siding, discuss your goals, and review the available fiber cement siding options. We’ll take measurements, assess the condition of your home’s exterior, and explain the recommended scope of work. You’ll receive a detailed proposal outlining the selected materials and total installed price. No high-pressure sales tactics, just experienced guidance and straightforward pricing.
Product Selection & Project Planning
We’ll help you select the appropriate James Hardie products, including HardiePlank® lap siding, HardieShingle® siding, HardiePanel® vertical siding, and coordinating HardieTrim® boards. We’ll review available profiles, textures, and color options to complement your home’s architectural style. Once your selections are finalized, we’ll coordinate material ordering and discuss the anticipated installation schedule.
Existing Siding Removal & Preparation
Our experienced installation team takes precautions to protect your landscaping and surrounding property before carefully removing the existing siding. We inspect the exposed surfaces for signs of deterioration, moisture damage, or other conditions that may affect the installation. If additional repairs are necessary, we’ll explain our findings and discuss the appropriate solutions before proceeding. Proper preparation provides the foundation for a successful siding installation.
Professional Siding Installation & Weather Protection
Our installation team follows applicable James Hardie installation requirements, paying careful attention to fastening, clearances, flashing, moisture management, and integration with windows, doors, and other exterior features. We understand that proper installation is essential to the long-term performance of fiber cement siding. We focus on one project at a time, giving your home the attention necessary to complete the work correctly.
Trim, Finishing Details & Final Inspection
We complete the installation with the appropriate trim, corner boards, caulking, and finishing details to create a clean, attractive exterior. Once the work is complete, we inspect the finished installation, address any remaining details, and thoroughly clean the work areas. We’ll review the completed project with you and answer any questions about your new siding.

James Hardie Fiber Cement Siding Options
HardiePlank® Lap Siding
The most popular James Hardie siding choice for Houston-area homes. HardiePlank features traditional horizontal boards available in smooth and wood-grain textures, with select profiles offering additional architectural detail. Its classic appearance complements a wide range of home styles while providing excellent resistance to rot, termites, and weather-related deterioration.
HardieShingle® Siding
HardieShingle provides the distinctive appearance of traditional cedar shingles without many of the maintenance concerns associated with natural wood. Its textured design adds character and architectural interest, making it an excellent choice for gables, accent areas, and traditional home exteriors. Fiber cement construction resists rotting, warping, and termite damage.
HardiePanel® Vertical Siding
HardiePanel offers a clean, distinctive vertical siding appearance that works beautifully with contemporary, farmhouse, and traditional architectural styles. Available in various textures, it can be combined with HardieTrim boards to create a board-and-batten design. HardiePanel is an excellent option for accent walls, gables, or complete exterior renovations.
HardieTrim® Boards
HardieTrim provides the finishing details that complete a professional siding installation. Used around windows, doors, corners, fascia, and other architectural features, these fiber cement trim boards create clean, defined lines while offering resistance to moisture-related deterioration and termite damage.
Designed for Houston’s Climate
James Hardie offers fiber cement siding products engineered for regional climate conditions, including its HardieZone® HZ10 product line for the Houston area.
