Siding

James Hardie

This Round Rock siding job used James Hardie HardiePlank in the 8.25-inch Select Cedar Mill profile. We chose fiber cement because it shrugs off 100-plus degree heat, hail, and moisture. The scope also included 6-inch Hardie fascia and wrapped 4x4 porch posts for a finished edge. The home now has a solid, low-maintenance shell built for Central Texas weather.

Exterior Painting

Sherwin Williams

Exterior painting followed the siding install using Sherwin Williams SuperPaint. We coated the primed Cedar Mill boards, fascia, soffit, and wrapped columns in one consistent color. SuperPaint was picked for its fade resistance under harsh Texas sun. The fresh finish sealed every board and pulled the whole exterior together.

First Contact

The homeowner found Austin Pro through an internet search and reached out in late June 2023. They wanted their aging Round Rock exterior replaced with something tougher than the original cladding. The lead came in on June 26, and we set up an assessment right away.

Evaluation

We inspected the existing exterior and found worn cladding, weathered fascia, and bare porch posts taking on moisture. The walls needed a full re-clad, not just fresh paint. Those findings shaped the scope before we ever quoted the job.

PLanning & Approval

We laid out a plan built around James Hardie HardiePlank in the 8.25-inch Select Cedar Mill profile. The estimate included 6-inch Hardie fascia, wrapped 4x4 posts, and a full Sherwin Williams SuperPaint finish. The homeowner approved the project on June 29, 2023.

Installation

The crew installed the primed Cedar Mill siding over several days in mid-August, working through the Central Texas heat. We wrapped the porch columns and tied in the new fascia and soffit. Painters followed once the boards were set, coating everything in one consistent color.

Completion

We ran two rounds of yard cleanup and knocked out punch items before the walkthrough. The project was completed and invoiced on August 30, 2023, and formally closed on September 14. The home was left with a sealed, uniform exterior ready for years of Texas weather.

We re-clad this Round Rock home with James Hardie HardiePlank Select Cedar Mill siding, then finished it with Sherwin Williams paint. The old, tired exterior became a straight, sealed shell built for Central Texas weather.

  • Material: 8.25-inch fiber cement lap siding, primed
  • Timeframe: Approved June 29, 2023; completed and invoiced August 30, 2023
  • Standout outcome: A uniform, hail-tough exterior finished in Sherwin Williams SuperPaint

Why did this Round Rock home need new siding?

The old cladding had run its course. Central Texas is hard on exteriors, and this house showed the wear you'd expect on a home of its age.

  • Cracking and soft spots along the wall line
  • Weathered fascia that no longer held paint
  • Bare porch posts that needed a clean, finished wrap
  • A patchy, faded color that no touch-up could fix

What did the crew find on site?

When we pulled the old material, we got a clear look at the real condition of the walls. That matters. Homeowners often assume the problem is just paint, when the trouble runs deeper into the substrate. Here the issue was the cladding itself and the exposed trim taking on moisture. We planned for 6-inch Hardie fascia and wrapped 4x4 posts so no raw wood was left facing the weather. That kind of edge detail is what keeps a job from failing early.

What materials did we use, and why?

We went with James Hardie HardiePlank in the 8.25-inch Select Cedar Mill profile. Fiber cement was the right call for this ZIP code. It doesn't warp in 100-plus degree summers, and it takes a hailstone far better than vinyl.

  • 8.25-inch Select Cedar Mill boards for a textured, wood-grain face
  • Primed Cedar Mill stock, ready for a clean topcoat
  • 6-inch JH fascia with a 1x2, tying the trim into the same system
  • Wrapped porch columns for a seamless look
  • Delivery handled through ABC Supply Co.

How did the install and paint go together?

We hung the Hardie boards over several days in mid-August, working in the heat that Central Texas is known for. Fiber cement is heavier and less forgiving than wood, so straight courses and tight seams take patience. Once the siding was set, our painters moved in with Sherwin Williams SuperPaint. We coated the boards, the fascia, the soffit, and the wrapped posts in one color. That single-system approach is why the finished wall reads as one clean surface instead of a patchwork.

  • Paint applied per square across all new siding
  • Fascia and soffit coated up to 24 inches
  • Wrapped columns painted to match
  • Two rounds of yard cleanup and punch items

What were the results?

The home now has a solid, low-maintenance exterior that suits its street. The color is even, the trim is sealed, and every board is protected against sun and storms.

  • No exposed wood left to rot or swell
  • A cohesive finish from fascia to foundation line
  • A shell designed to shrug off cedar pollen season and summer heat
  • Punch-out completed before we closed the job on September 14, 2023

Frequently asked questions

How long did the whole project take?

The lead came in late June, and we approved the job on June 29, 2023. Siding and paint wrapped up by August 30, with final close on September 14.

Why is Hardie siding a good fit for Round Rock?

Fiber cement handles our climate swings without warping, and it resists hail and moisture better than most alternatives. That durability is why it holds up so well in the 78664 area.

What did this siding and painting project cost?

This retail job landed in the $15k–$20k range. Pricing reflects the full re-clad, fascia, wrapped posts, and a complete SuperPaint finish.

Do the siding and paint carry any protection?

James Hardie fiber cement is backed by a long product warranty, and SuperPaint is built for years of fade resistance. Together they give this exterior a long, low-maintenance life.
