James Hardie Siding Replacement in Daly City, CA 94014

Set in one of Daly City's hillside neighborhoods, this home traded its tired, mismatched siding for a clean, modern exterior in Monterey Taupe. We re-clad the main structure in James Hardie ColorPlus lap siding from the Statement Collection, giving the walls a consistent shadow line and a finish built to hold up against the coastal fog and wind this area is known for. The result is a tighter, better-protected envelope with a warm, neutral palette that reads sharp from the street.

Our crew started by stripping the existing wood siding and all the old trims down to the framing, then inspected the wall cavities for hidden damage and repaired the dry rot we found before any new material went up. To lock out moisture, we wrapped the walls in HardieWrap weather barrier, sealed every window and door opening with Forti-Flash rubberized flashing, and ran metal z-flashing across the laps. Cobble Stone HardieTrim in a 5/4-by-4 profile frames the windows, doors, and corners against the taupe field. We finished by painting the existing stucco sections to match, along with the eaves, fascia, garage door, and foundation so the whole exterior ties together.
