James Hardie Lap Siding Installation in Hayward, CA 94542

James Hardie's Statement Collection lap siding sets the tone for this Hayward home, finished in Arctic White with crisp Iron Gray trim for a clean, high-contrast exterior. We stripped the house down to the sheathing on every wall, pulling off all the old siding and trims around doors, windows, and corners. With the walls open, our crew inspected the framing for dry rot and replaced any compromised structural members and damaged sheathing with exterior-grade OSB to restore shear strength before the new siding went on. The result is a fully re-clad exterior built to handle the local climate for decades.

The HardiePlank lap siding covers roughly 34 squares across the main house, all in the Arctic White ColorPlus finish. Before any board went up, we wrapped the walls in HardieWrap weather barrier, sealed the window and door openings with Forti-Flash rubberized flashing, and ran metal z-flashing for permanent moisture protection. Iron Gray HardieTrim in 5/4-by-4 frames the windows, doors, and corners, while 5/4-by-6 trim wraps the three-car garage openings. We finished the porch ceiling in Cedar Mill Color Plus soffit and painted the eaves, fascia, garage doors, and foundation to tie the whole exterior together.
