James Hardie Siding Replacement in Benicia, CA 94510

Timber Bark HardiePlank lap siding sets the tone on this Benicia home, a warm, grounded brown that holds up to the local climate far better than the old siding it replaced. We tackled the front of the house along with the existing siding areas, stripping everything back to the studs so we could start fresh with a proper moisture and flashing system. The result is a crisp, color-matched exterior with clean white trim framing every window, door, and corner.

After tearing off the old siding, trims, and skip sheathing, our crew inspected the wall framing for dry rot and replaced any compromised sheathing with exterior-grade OSB to keep the walls sound. We wrapped the home in HardieWrap weather barrier, sealed the window and door openings with Forti-Flash rubberized flashing, and ran metal z-flashing where needed before any siding went up. The Statement Collection HardiePlank went on in Timber Bark, with 5/4-by-4 HardieTrim in Arctic White Rustic Grain around the openings and corners. To finish, we painted the eaves, fascia, garage door, and foundation along the lap-siding run so the whole front reads as one cohesive package.
