The right color palette can set the tone and ambiance for your home’s exterior. If you are looking to invest in new siding, choose a product that can maintain its beauty for years to come and ensure the long-lasting aesthetic appeal of your home. As one of the leading siding replacement companies in the area, we recommend choosing James Hardie® siding with ColorPlus® Technology. Read on to learn more about it.

Different Color Choices

James Hardie siding equipped with ColorPlus Technology has a wide selection of colors to bring out the best in your home. From warm and inviting colors and cool and fresh hues to classy neutrals and dramatic dark shades, you get to design your home’s exterior according to your tastes and preferences.

Fade-Resistant Finish

During the manufacturing process, multiple coats of color are applied on the siding while inside a controlled factory setting to keep debris and other contaminants out and ensure optimal adhesion to the fiber cement surface. Each finish is cured in between coats to create a baked-on bond that results in a siding product that doesn’t peel, crack or chip. ColorPlus Technology is designed to withstand the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays, making sure your exterior remains lively and attractive for longer.

Less Work

Because of how the coatings are applied during manufacturing, you can expect the siding to be primed and painted as soon as it arrives at your home during installation day. Experienced siding installers who are trained in Hardie siding products only need to install each panel. No other unnecessary workload like on-site painting means your home gets the protection it deserves sooner.

James Hardie fiber cement siding eliminates pest vulnerability and moisture damage at the source, with long-term costs that routinely beat the annual patch-and-paint cycle. If you're tired of paying the Woodpecker Tax, here's exactly what switching looks like and what it's worth.
