Hardie board siding already comes in a variety of colours and textures, so there’s no need to paint it immediately once you’ve had it installed. Chances are that your smart trim will need to be painted after installation. However, some homeowners choose to paint their hardie board siding after a few years to give their home a different look and provide it with extra protection from the elements. If you choose to paint your hardie board siding, be aware that it may compromise the manufacturer’s warranty. Contact us for more details about your specific siding products.

Cleaning and maintaining hardie board siding is very easy. Use water and a soft cloth to wipe down your siding whenever it becomes dusty, dirty, or oily. In the case of oil or grease spills, you may also want to use a mild cleaning solution such as dish detergent. Avoid using abrasive brushes and cleaners on hardie board siding. These can damage the siding’s finish and lower the curb appeal of your home.

Hiring us to install siding on a typical two-story home usually takes about a week (5-6 business days) from quote to completion. Larger houses may require more time.
