DURABLE HARDIE BOARD REPLACEMENT FROM EXPERIENCED SIDING CONTRACTORS
REPLACE FAILING SIDING WITH JAMES HARDIE FIBER CEMENT
When your siding has reached the end of its life, patching it stops making sense. If your home is covered in aging vinyl, rotting wood, chalking aluminum, or fiber cement that’s been damaged beyond repair, PJ Fitzpatrick can replace it with James Hardie siding, the #1 brand of fiber cement siding in North America. Since 1980, we’ve specialized in siding replacement and other exterior remodeling services, and we install every board to the manufacturer’s specifications.
A Hardie board replacement does more than refresh your curb appeal. Hardie® fiber cement resists moisture, rot, and warping, won’t serve as a food source for termites or woodpeckers, and is noncombustible for added peace of mind. Paired with a new weather-resistant barrier and proper flashing, replacing your siding gives your home a complete, properly sealed exterior system rather than a patchwork of old and new. Call 1-877-246-4354 today for a Hardie board replacement cost estimate.
Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Siding
- Widespread Cracking:Damage across multiple walls usually costs less to replace than to patch.
- Rot or Soft Spots:Decaying wood siding or trim means moisture has already gotten in.
- Failing Paint:Constant scraping and repainting is a sign your siding can’t hold a finish.
- Warping or Buckling:Boards and panels that no longer sit flat let water and pests behind them.
- Moisture Inside:Peeling interior paint, stains, or mildew can trace back to failing siding.
- Rising Energy Bills:Gaps and drafts behind old siding make your HVAC system work harder.
- Repeated Repairs:If you’re calling for a fix every season, replacement is the better investment.
- Dated Appearance:Faded, chalky, or mismatched siding pulls down your whole exterior.
Our Hardie Board Replacement Process Is Thorough From Start to Finish
A siding replacement is a major investment in your home, so we plan every project carefully before a single board comes off the wall. We’ll start with an on-site visit to measure your home, evaluate the condition of the existing siding and the structure beneath it, and walk you through your style and color options. You’ll know exactly what’s included – labor, materials, trim, and cleanup before we begin.
On installation day, your James Hardie siding and HardieTrim® boards are delivered directly to your home. We remove your old siding and inspect the sheathing and framing underneath, addressing any hidden damage or rot before it gets covered up. Next we wrap your home in a weather-resistant barrier and flash the windows, doors, and corners to shed water properly. Then our trained crew installs your new siding to James Hardie’s exact specifications, including correct fastening, proper clearances, and sealed joints. When we’re finished, we clean up the job site thoroughly and walk the project with you.
Choose Your Style, Texture, and Color
Replacing your siding is a rare chance to change your home’s entire look, and James Hardie gives you plenty to work with. Choose classic Hardie® Plank lap siding, vertical panels for a board-and-batten farmhouse look, cedar-look shake & shingle, premium Artisan® profiles with deep shadow lines, or modern architectural panels and mix styles to highlight gables, entryways, and other details. We finish every project with HardieTrim® boards at the corners, windows, and doors.
We install James Hardie siding in the Statement Collection®, a curated palette featuring ColorPlus® Technology. This technology features a factory-applied, baked-on finish that resists fading, chipping, and cracking far better than field-applied paint. Explore all of our James Hardie siding styles and colors.
Backed by Strong Warranties
James Hardie backs its fiber cement siding with a 30-year limited, transferable substrate warranty, and ColorPlus® Technology finishes carry a 15-year finish warranty. On top of the manufacturer’s coverage, our labor is covered by PJ Fitzpatrick’s own workmanship warranty so if something ever goes wrong with our installation, all you need to do is give us a call.
