Siding

James Hardie

This Round Rock siding project used James Hardie Custom Colonial Roughsawn fiber cement for a durable, textured look. We paired it with matching James Hardie trim in 4-inch, 6-inch, and 8-inch widths. Fiber cement was chosen because it shrugs off hail and 100-plus-degree summers where wood and vinyl fail. The result is a low-maintenance exterior built for decades in Central Texas.

Exterior Painting

Sherwin Williams

The exterior painting scope covered the new siding, all James Hardie trim, and the fascia and soffit. We used Sherwin Williams SuperPaint for its fade resistance under harsh Texas sun. Both garage doors and entry doors got fresh coats to match. The finished paint locks out moisture and keeps cedar pollen from staining the surface.

First Contact

The homeowner found Austin Pro through an internet search and reached out on October 11, 2023. The first conversation focused on replacing aging siding and refreshing the home's whole exterior.

Evaluation

We moved the lead to a prospect on October 17, 2023 after assessing the existing siding. Our inspection flagged swelling boards and peeling paint, both signs that moisture had gotten behind the surface.

PLanning & Approval

The homeowner reviewed the scope and approved the project on November 7, 2023. Selections included James Hardie Custom Colonial Roughsawn, matching Hardie trim in three widths, cedar posts, and Sherwin Williams SuperPaint.

Installation

Material came in through ABC Supply Co., and the crew handled siding removal, Hardie install, and cedar post work before the painters stepped in. Siding and painting were carried out together and finished on January 30, 2024, with SuperPaint applied to siding, trim, fascia, soffit, doors, and garage doors.

Completion

After two yard cleanups and a full punch-out pass, we walked the finished exterior on January 30, 2024. The project closed on February 8, 2024 with a durable, coordinated finish ready for Central Texas weather.

Siding in Round Rock | Austin Pro

We tore off the tired original siding on this Round Rock home and rebuilt the exterior with James Hardie Custom Colonial Roughsawn fiber cement, then painted the whole thing in Sherwin Williams SuperPaint. The house went from weathered and patchy to crisp and weather-ready in a single push.

Why did this Round Rock home need new siding?

The old siding had taken years of abuse. Central Texas summers push past 100 degrees, spring brings hail, and cedar pollen coats everything for weeks. Those cycles wear down softer materials fast.

  • The original boards showed swelling and soft spots at the seams
  • Paint was peeling where moisture had crept behind the siding
  • The homeowner wanted a fix that would not need redoing in a few years

What did we find when we pulled the old siding?

Once the crew started removing boards, the reasons for the failure were clear. Moisture had worked its way behind the siding at several joints, and the surface was no longer sealing the way it should. This is the part homeowners rarely see coming. Siding looks fine from the curb long after it has stopped doing its job, and by the time paint bubbles or boards feel soft, water has often been getting in for a while. Catching it here, before the sheathing took real damage, saved this home a much bigger repair down the road.

What materials did we use, and why?

We went with James Hardie Custom Colonial Roughsawn fiber cement for one main reason: it holds up to everything Round Rock throws at it. Fiber cement does not swell in humidity, does not feed rot, and takes hail impacts that would dent or crack lesser products. The Roughsawn texture also gives the walls a deep wood-grain look without the upkeep real wood demands. We finished the design with cedar posts and 4x4 cedar for warmth at the entry.

  • Hardie trim run in 4-inch, 6-inch, and 8-inch widths per linear foot
  • Cedar 4x4 posts installed for structural accent detail
  • Material delivered through ABC Supply Co. to keep the schedule tight
  • Two yard cleanups and punch-out passes to leave the site spotless

How did the painting bring it together?

With the siding up, our painters moved in to seal and finish every surface. Sherwin Williams SuperPaint was the pick here because it fights fading under relentless Texas sun and shields the boards from moisture and pollen staining.

  • Fresh coats on all new siding and Hardie trim
  • Fascia and soffit painted up to 24 inches
  • Both entry doors and garage doors refinished to match
  • One unified color scheme across the full exterior

What were the results?

The home now has a durable, low-maintenance shell built for Central Texas conditions. The Roughsawn texture and fresh paint give it real curb appeal, and the homeowner will not be repainting or repairing boards for many years.

  • Weather-sealed exterior ready for heat, hail, and pollen season
  • Coordinated finish across siding, trim, doors, and garage doors
  • Clean punch-out and yard cleanup at handoff

Frequently asked questions

How long did the siding and painting take?

The siding install and painting were wrapped in a focused push completed on January 30, 2024. The project was approved back on November 7, 2023, then scheduled for the right winter window.

Why is fiber cement a good fit for Round Rock?

It resists the moisture, hail, and heat swings that ruin wood and vinyl siding here. It also will not warp on limestone-soil lots where slab movement can stress a home's exterior.

What did this project cost?

This job fell in the $5,000 to $10,000 range. Final pricing depends on wall square footage, trim linear feet, and how much surface needs paint.

Is the new paint protected against fading?

Sherwin Williams SuperPaint is built to resist UV fade and hold color through hot Central Texas summers. It also helps keep cedar pollen from staining the freshly finished siding.
