James Hardie Board and Batten Siding in Novato, CA 94945
The homeowners here wanted to retire failing, outdated siding and give their Novato house a cleaner, more current exterior. We stripped the old cladding and re-wrapped the walls in James Hardie board and batten siding, swapping a tired surface for a crisp vertical profile that holds up to the weather. The finished result is a tighter, lower-maintenance shell with a sharper, more architectural look.
The project covered new James Hardie fiber cement board and batten siding across the walls, along with new windows and an overhang as part of the same scope. Fiber cement was the right call for this home - it resists rot, moisture, and pests far better than the original material, and the board and batten layout gives the elevations a strong, defined rhythm. Updating the windows and overhang at the same time kept the new siding lines clean and consistent around the openings and roofline.

GVD Renovations replaced the siding on our entire house and did an amazing job! We're still getting compliments to this day. They showed up on the days that they said they were coming to do the work and left each day making sure that the workspace was left completely pristine. Talk about a group of true professionals, they were always willing to work with us and accommodate our requests -- friendly crew, quality work, and just beautiful workmanship. We highly recommend and would definitely work with them again on future home projects.
