James Hardi Siding Job




This project is slightly unique because of the use of vinyl corners, they give a nice soft edge as opposed to the traditional use of 1x material to finish off these particular areas. The siding is pre- painted( Baked-on in the factory ) James Hardi ( fiber-cement ) Clapboard. The Soffits are Hidden- vent aluminum panels and the facia and drip edge are also made from aluminum.


All fastners are hiddden and much time was spent on the butt joints of the siding to make sure they were absolutly tight. Any nessessary exposed fastners were touched up with caulk and then painted with a small applicator that was filled with color mached paint from the factory. This product is very durable and easy to install. I would recommend this over any other man made product other than maybe stone or brick.
