The Area’s Most Trusted Siding Company Installs James Hardie® Products

James Hardie® products provide a superior alternative to traditional cedar wood and wood composite siding. This low-maintenance fiber cement material surpasses traditional home siding in both durability and protection. James Hardie siding is extremely resistant to rotting, cracking, warping and elements such as fire, hail and high-speed winds. It also provides excellent protection from wood-destroying animals and insects.

In addition to a pre-primed product called PrimePlus®, James Hardie products can also be treated with ColorPlus® Technology, a factory-applied paint that is baked on. This results in a long-lasting finish that can stand up to wind and UV rays.

HardieBoard®, HardiePlank® and HardieTrim® are all products manufactured by James Hardie, installed by Austin Pro Siding, Roofing & Windows and covered by dependable warranties.
