Complete James Hardie Select Cedar Mill Siding Installation | Coordinated Exterior Painting with Sherwin Williams Products









This comprehensive siding renovation in Pflugerville transformed the home's exterior using James Hardie Select Cedar Mill 8.25" fiber cement planks for the primary surfaces, complemented by James Hardie shingle siding accents above the garage for architectural interest. The Select Cedar Mill texture provides the authentic wood grain appearance homeowners love while delivering superior resistance to Pflugerville's intense summer heat, occasional hail, and high humidity that can damage traditional materials. The dual-texture approach created visual depth and curb appeal while ensuring long-term performance in Central Texas conditions. The project required careful coordination of material deliveries from ABC Supply and precise installation techniques to achieve the clean, professional finish this homeowner deserved.

The exterior painting component of this project created a unified, polished appearance across all non-siding surfaces throughout the home. Professional crews painted fascia and soffit areas up to 24 inches, both garage doors, entry doors, and the complete gutter and downspout system to coordinate with the new James Hardie siding installation. Quality paint materials sourced through Sherwin Williams provided the durability needed to withstand Pflugerville's UV exposure and temperature fluctuations while maintaining color integrity over time. The comprehensive approach ensured every exterior surface received proper preparation and premium coating application, creating a cohesive design that enhances the investment in new siding and protects all exterior components from Central Texas weather conditions.

The homeowner discovered Austin Pro through Yelp in January 2020, initially inquiring about siding options for their Pflugerville home. Our first conversation on January 3rd covered their goals for exterior improvement and the potential for combining siding work with complementary painting services.
During the assessment phase, our team evaluated the existing exterior conditions and measured all areas requiring attention. We identified opportunities for the dual-texture siding approach using James Hardie products and determined the scope of painting work needed for fascia, soffit, doors, and gutters to create a unified appearance.
The planning phase extended through 2022 as the homeowner considered options and timing for their investment. Project approval came in March 2023, allowing for final material selections including the James Hardie Select Cedar Mill planks and shingle accents, along with Sherwin Williams paint specifications for all exterior surfaces.
Installation work proceeded efficiently in spring 2023 with coordinated material deliveries from ABC Supply supporting the siding installation timeline. Our crews completed the James Hardie plank and shingle installation first, followed by comprehensive painting of all fascia, soffit, door, and gutter surfaces to achieve the coordinated exterior finish.
Project completion in June 2023 included thorough punch-out procedures with two yard cleaning sessions and attention to all finishing details. The final walkthrough confirmed the successful transformation combining premium siding installation with comprehensive exterior painting for a completely refreshed home exterior.
When this homeowner contacted Austin Pro through Yelp in January 2020, they had a clear vision for transforming their home's exterior. What started as a siding inquiry evolved into a comprehensive exterior renovation combining premium James Hardie fiber cement siding with coordinated exterior painting work.
The project timeline reflects the care and planning that went into this transformation. After initial conversations in early 2020, the homeowner took time to fully plan their investment, ultimately moving forward with approval in March 2023. This thoughtful approach allowed for proper material selection and scheduling to ensure the best possible outcome.
For the primary siding installation, we specified James Hardie Select Cedar Mill 8.25" planks in primed finish. This product choice addressed several key concerns specific to Pflugerville homes. The fiber cement composition resists warping, cracking, and fading that plague traditional materials in our intense summer heat and UV exposure.
The Select Cedar Mill texture provides authentic wood grain appearance without wood's maintenance demands. At 8.25" exposure, these planks create clean horizontal lines that complement the home's architecture while providing efficient installation coverage.
For visual interest above the garage area, we installed James Hardie shingle siding with straight edge detailing. This accent treatment breaks up the horizontal plank pattern and adds architectural character to what could otherwise be a monotonous facade.
The Sherwin Williams paint specifications covered every non-siding surface to create a unified exterior appearance. Our crews painted fascia and soffit areas up to 24 inches, ensuring proper coverage of these critical trim elements that frame the new siding installation.
Both garage doors received complete refinishing to coordinate with the new color scheme. Entry doors were also included in the paint scope, creating consistency across all architectural elements. The gutter and downspout system received fresh coating measured per linear foot to ensure complete coverage of this extensive drainage network.
Material deliveries from ABC Supply required careful timing to support the installation sequence. The primed Select Cedar Mill planks arrived ready for installation, allowing our crews to focus on precise measurement and cutting for this home's specific architectural details.
The shingle accent work above the garage demanded particular attention to achieve clean transitions between the two siding textures. Straight edge shingle installation creates sharp, defined lines that require expert cutting and fitting to maintain the architectural integrity.
Paint application followed siding completion, allowing our finishing crews to work with established color lines and trim details. The fascia and soffit painting up to 24 inches required careful masking to protect the new siding while ensuring complete coverage of these horizontal elements.
The project scope included comprehensive punch-out procedures with two separate yard cleaning sessions and detailed punch item completion. This systematic approach ensures no installation details are overlooked and the homeowner receives a completely finished project.
Delivery fees from both ABC Supply and additional material sources were carefully tracked to maintain project budgeting transparency. The retail work type allowed for flexible scheduling that accommodated both our crew availability and the homeowner's preferences.
The completed transformation dramatically improved this home's curb appeal while addressing practical concerns about exterior maintenance and durability. James Hardie's 30-year transferable warranty provides peace of mind about long-term performance in Central Texas conditions.
The coordinated paint system using quality Sherwin Williams products ensures color consistency and fade resistance across all exterior surfaces. This comprehensive approach means the homeowner won't face piecemeal touch-ups or premature coating failure on different building components.
Pflugerville's growth and home values make exterior investment particularly valuable. Many homes in the area date from rapid development periods and benefit from comprehensive exterior updates that address multiple building systems simultaneously.
The combination of premium siding and coordinated painting work provides immediate visual impact while solving long-term maintenance concerns. James Hardie's proven performance in Texas heat, combined with quality paint systems, creates an exterior that maintains its appearance with minimal ongoing maintenance.
Central Texas weather patterns including intense UV, occasional hail, and temperature fluctuations demand materials that can withstand these conditions without compromising appearance or structural integrity. This project demonstrates how strategic material selection and comprehensive planning deliver results that protect homeowner investments for decades to come.
