Scope of Work

What We Did

Complete James Hardie HardiePlank Select Cedar Mill 8.25" Siding Installation · Energy-Efficient Daylight Max Vinyl Replacement Windows

Siding

This Springbrook home in Pflugerville got a full siding replacement in James Hardie HardiePlank Select Cedar Mill 8.25". Fiber cement handles our 100°-plus summers and hail far better than old vinyl or wood. We also swapped the soffit, added a Cedar Mill porch ceiling, and painted the whole exterior Cobble Stone. The result is a tighter, better-sealed shell built for Central Texas weather.

Windows

This Pflugerville project included a full set of Daylight Max vinyl replacement windows. We sequenced them before the siding so the crew could flash and seal each opening properly. Vinyl frames resist warping in our hot summers and help keep energy costs down. Paired with the new James Hardie siding, the home now has a tighter, more efficient exterior.

How It Went

The Journey

From the first phone call to the final walkthrough — what actually happened on this project.

First contact

The homeowner found Austin Pro through our website and reached out on Oct 18, 2022. The early conversation covered aging siding and drafty windows on this Pflugerville home, and it moved to a prospect on Oct 20, 2022.

Evaluation

We inspected the existing exterior and found worn cladding, an old vinyl soffit, and a section with double-layered siding. We also reviewed the windows for heat gain and drafts common in homes built during Pflugerville's late-1990s and early-2000s growth.

Planning & approval

We built a full scope covering tear-off, James Hardie fiber cement in the 8.25" Select Cedar Mill profile, new soffit, porch ceiling, paint, and Daylight Max windows. The homeowner reviewed selections and approved the project on Dec 19, 2022.

Installation

The crew tore off the old siding, including the double-layer and vinyl soffit sections, then re-clad the home with 8.25" HardiePlank. They set the Hardie soffit with H-mold, installed the porch ceiling and Daylight Max windows, and painted the fascia, soffit, and garage doors with Sherwin Williams products.

Completion

We finished the install on Jun 23, 2023, with two rounds of yard clean-up and a full punch-out. The completed exterior is sealed, freshly painted, and backed by James Hardie's product warranty. The job closed on Jul 5, 2023.

The Full Story

Inside This Project

Why did this Pflugerville home need new siding?

The old cladding had run its course. Many homes in this part of Pflugerville date to the late 1990s and early 2000s, and their original siding starts to fade, warp, and let moisture in.

  • We removed the old material, including a double-layer tear-off section
  • We also tore off the old vinyl soffit
  • Limestone soil movement and repeated hail had left the exterior looking tired
  • The homeowner wanted a finish that would last, not another short-term fix

What materials did we use, and why?

We went with James Hardie fiber cement in the 8.25" Select Cedar Mill profile. Fiber cement holds up to 100-degree summers, cedar pollen season, and hail far better than wood or vinyl.

  • Primed Select Cedar Mill boards for the main walls
  • Matching James Hardie soffit with H-mold for clean transitions
  • A 4' x 8' Select Cedar Mill porch ceiling, installed and painted
  • Sherwin Williams paint on the fascia and soffit up to 24"
  • We even painted the garage doors to match the new exterior

Materials came through ABC Supply Co., and the fiber cement stands up to the freeze-thaw swings and dry heat that wreck lesser products here.

What about the windows?

We paired the siding with Daylight Max vinyl replacement windows. The line uses a slim frame and a larger glass area, so rooms feel brighter without giving up efficiency.

  • Full-frame vinyl replacements across the home
  • Tighter seals to block heat gain during 100-degree stretches
  • Less noise and fewer drafts than the old units
  • Installing windows during the re-clad let us seal and flash everything at once

How did the installation go?

The crew handled the tear-off, re-clad, soffit, porch ceiling, windows, and paint in a tight, coordinated sequence. Doing siding and windows together avoids gaps and gives you one clean, sealed envelope.

  • Tear-off first, including the double-layer and old vinyl soffit
  • New fascia and soffit set with H-mold
  • 8.25" HardiePlank installed, then primed and painted
  • Two rounds of yard clean-up and punch-out items to close the job
  • Completed in a single push, wrapping Jun 23, 2023

What were the results?

The home reads as a modern, well-kept house that fits its Pflugerville street. The Cedar Mill texture adds warmth, and the fresh paint ties the fascia, soffit, and garage doors together.

  • A sealed, low-maintenance exterior built for Central Texas weather
  • Brighter interior rooms from the Daylight Max glass
  • Better efficiency during the worst of the summer heat
  • A finished look backed by James Hardie's product warranty

Straight Answers

Questions About This Project

How long did this Pflugerville siding and window project take?

Work was approved on Dec 19, 2022, and the install wrapped on Jun 23, 2023. The active tear-off and re-clad ran as a focused, single-job push before the file closed on Jul 5, 2023.

Why is James Hardie fiber cement a good fit for Central Texas?

Fiber cement resists the 100-degree heat, hail, and cedar pollen that wear down wood and vinyl. The 8.25" Select Cedar Mill boards also handle the moisture swings tied to our limestone soil.

What did a project like this cost?

This full siding tear-off, re-clad, and window replacement fell in the $50k–$60k range. Scope drives price, so a tear-off, soffit, porch ceiling, paint, and new windows sit higher than siding alone.

Can you do siding and windows at the same time?

Yes, and it is the smart way to do it. Installing windows during the re-clad let us flash and seal the whole envelope at once, which cuts leak risk and gives a cleaner finish.
