James Hardie HardiePlank Select Cedar Mill Siding Installation | Full Exterior Repaint with Sherwin Williams SuperPaint









This Maple Run project replaced worn siding with James Hardie HardiePlank Select Cedar Mill in an 8.25-inch reveal. We chose fiber cement because it shrugs off 100-degree summers, cedar pollen, and hail that wreck older wood siding. The crew also clad the garage door jamb and a bird's mouth section for a tight, weather-sealed look. The finished exterior gives this aging Austin home real curb appeal and decades of durability.

We coated the whole exterior with Sherwin Williams SuperPaint over the primed Hardie boards. The scope reached fascia and soffit up to 24 inches, garage doors, shutters, gutters, downspouts, and the front door. We also painted the front porch ceiling and the underside of the back patio cover. SuperPaint was picked for its fade resistance under relentless Central Texas sun.

This homeowner was a past client and reached back out through our salesman on December 3, 2025. The conversation focused on replacing worn siding and refreshing the full exterior of their Maple Run home.
We inspected the home and found the original siding past its service life, common for homes of this era in southwest Austin. The garage door jamb and a first-floor bird's mouth stood out as spots needing cladding before any siding or paint.
We built out a scope covering HardiePlank Select Cedar Mill siding plus a complete exterior repaint. The homeowner approved the project on December 23, 2025, which moved it into the prospect stage.
The crew hung 8.25-inch primed Cedar Mill boards, clad the garage door jamb and the right-side bird's mouth, then coated everything in Sherwin Williams SuperPaint. Work ran across multiple days and included fascia, soffit, garage doors, shutters, gutters, the front door, porch ceiling, and back patio cover.
The project wrapped on February 26, 2026, with two rounds of yard cleanup and punch-out to finish. We walked the property to confirm every surface was clean and sealed, and the job closed out March 19, 2026.
We reclad and repainted this Maple Run home in southwest Austin, swapping tired old siding for James Hardie fiber cement and finishing every surface in Sherwin Williams SuperPaint. The house came out sharper, tougher, and ready for another few decades of Texas weather.
Maple Run is full of homes from the 1980s and 1990s, and the original wood-based siding on this one had run its course. Years of sun and moisture had taken a toll, and it was no longer holding paint the way it should.
When we walked the house, the trouble spots were exactly where you'd expect on a home this age. The bird's mouth on the right side of the first floor and the single garage door jamb were prime spots for water and pest intrusion, so both needed proper cladding before anything else. A lot of homeowners skip these transition points and just paint over them, which traps moisture and shortens the life of the whole job. We wrapped those details in Hardie trim to seal them out for good. That kind of prep is quiet work, but it's the difference between a repaint and a real repair.
We installed HardiePlank Select Cedar Mill in an 8.25-inch reveal, primed and ready for paint. Fiber cement was the clear pick here for a simple reason: it doesn't warp, rot, or feed the pests that plague wood siding in our climate.
Once the boards were up, we coated the whole exterior in Sherwin Williams SuperPaint. That paint was chosen for its fade and weather resistance, which matters a lot under relentless Central Texas sun. We didn't stop at the siding, either.
The install and paint ran across multiple days and wrapped up on February 26, 2026. Fiber cement siding takes patience to cut, hang, and seal correctly, and rushing it shows. Our crew also handled two rounds of yard cleanup and punch items so the property was left spotless.
Yes. Fiber cement like HardiePlank resists the hail, heat swings, and moisture that wear down wood siding here. It's a stronger long-term value for aging homes across southwest Austin.
This job fell in the $25,000 to $30,000 range. Final pricing depends on square footage, cladding details, and how many surfaces need paint.
The primed boards need a finish coat to seal them and lock in color. Sherwin Williams SuperPaint gives the fade resistance that primer alone can't, which keeps the exterior looking fresh for years.
Absolutely. On this project we painted the gutters, downspouts, garage doors, front door, shutters, porch ceiling, and back patio cover, all in one coordinated finish.
