Installed James Hardie typically runs about $14–$18 per square foot. Important: siding is priced per square foot of wall area — not your home’s footprint — so a 2,000 sq ft home often has 2,500–3,000+ sq ft of wall. Because every home is different, we give you exact written pricing at your free in-home estimate.
The full line: HardiePlank lap siding, HardieShingle, HardieShake, board-and-batten (HardiePanel), HardieTrim, and ColorPlus Technology factory finishes — every profile and color.
Most homes install in about one to two weeks depending on size and complexity. We give you a clear timeline with your estimate.
James Hardie carries a 30-year limited product warranty, and ColorPlus finishes carry a 15-year finish warranty. We back our installation with a workmanship guarantee.
We install both Hardie and LP, so you get an honest comparison instead of a one-brand pitch. We’ll walk through durability, maintenance, look, and budget at your estimate.
