Complete James Hardie HardiePlank Select Cedar Mill Fiber Cement Siding Installation | Full Exterior Refinish with Sherwin Williams SuperPaint on Siding, Fascia, and Garage Doors
This Round Rock siding project replaced worn exterior cladding with durable James Hardie fiber cement. We used HardiePlank Select Cedar Mill in the 8.25" profile for a rich wood-grain look without wood's upkeep. Fiber cement was chosen because it resists Texas heat, hail, and moisture far better than the original material. The crew finished the job with fresh fascia, soffit, and Sherwin Williams SuperPaint for a clean, lasting result.

The homeowner found Austin Pro through an online search and reached out on September 29, 2023. The conversation centered on storm damage to the home's exterior and the path to filing an insurance claim.
We inspected all elevations and confirmed the original exterior was damaged beyond simple repair. During the walkthrough we noted a double layer of old siding and aging aluminum or vinyl fascia and soffit that would need full removal.
The project moved to prospect on October 4, 2023, and was approved November 14, 2023 after the insurance claim cleared. We finalized the scope, product selection, and the Sherwin Williams paint plan during this phase.
The crew completed the tear-off and full install on June 12, 2024. That included removing the double siding layer, installing 8.25" HardiePlank Select Cedar Mill, new fascia and soffit, and finishing with SuperPaint on the siding, trim, and garage doors.
We ran two yard cleanups and handled all punch items before final walkthrough. The invoice was issued on completion day, June 12, 2024, and the job closed out on June 26, 2024 with a fully renewed, weather-ready exterior.
We replaced the full exterior on a Round Rock home with James Hardie fiber cement siding, wrapping up a storm-damage insurance job with a fresh, hail-ready look. The finished home now wears 8.25" HardiePlank Select Cedar Mill boards, new fascia and soffit, and a clean Sherwin Williams paint finish.
This was an insurance job, driven by weather damage to the original exterior. The old cladding had taken a beating and was no longer protecting the home the way it should.
The homeowner first reached out in late September 2023 through an online search. After we walked the property, the path was clear: a full replacement made more sense than patchwork repairs.
Once the crew started the tear-off, we uncovered more than a single layer to deal with. Parts of this home had a double layer of old material that had to come off before anything new went up. That kind of thing is easy to miss on a quick estimate, and it changes the scope.
The fascia and soffit were also aluminum or vinyl in spots, so we handled a double tear-off there too. We cleared it all down to a clean surface. Skipping that step is the most common mistake we see homeowners make with cheaper bids. New siding over hidden damage just traps problems, and in our limestone-soil, high-humidity summers, trapped moisture leads to rot fast.
We chose James Hardie fiber cement because it handles Central Texas better than almost anything else. It won't warp in 100°+ heat, it resists hail far better than wood or vinyl, and it doesn't feed the moisture problems our clay soil creates.
The 8.25" Select Cedar Mill profile gives you a real cedar-grain look without the rot, splitting, or repainting cycle of actual wood. It came primed, ready for a finish coat.
After the boards were up, we coated everything with Sherwin Williams SuperPaint for a uniform, durable finish. A good paint job on fiber cement isn't just looks. It's the layer that fights our brutal UV and seals the surface season after season.
We painted the siding, the fascia and soffit up to 24", and even the garage doors to tie the whole exterior together. Cedar pollen and sun fade both hit hard here, so a fresh coat keeps the home looking sharp longer.
The home went from storm-worn to fully renewed in a single install day on June 12, 2024. The new exterior is tougher, better sealed, and built for the way weather works around here.
The homeowner also took our yard sign discount, and the project closed out on June 26, 2024. Final value landed in the $60k–$75k range for the complete scope.
The hands-on install for this Round Rock home happened in a single day, June 12, 2024. The longer stretch was the insurance and approval process, which ran from the initial fall 2023 claim through spring.
Our summers push past 100°, hail rolls through most years, and clay soil holds moisture. Fiber cement resists heat warping, impact, and rot better than wood or vinyl, which is why we recommend it for aging homes here.
Yes. This home had a double layer of siding and older aluminum or vinyl fascia and soffit, and we removed all of it before installing anything new. That's the only way to be sure the new exterior sits on a sound surface.
This full replacement, including tear-off, new James Hardie boards, fascia, soffit, and paint, fell in the $60k–$75k range. Exact pricing depends on your home's size, condition, and how many old layers need to come off.
