James Hardie Siding Replacement in Forestville, CA 95436

Set in a quiet Forestville neighborhood, this home traded its tired exterior for a clean, modern look in Boothbay Blue with crisp white trim. We re-clad the main house in James Hardie ColorPlus lap siding and replaced the old windows and doors as part of the same project, giving the place a sharper, more current profile. The blue against the bright trim reads fresh without trying too hard.

Because the home sits in a wildfire-prone area, our crew installed WUI Fire Marshal-approved venting per code as part of the prep. Before any new material went up, we inspected the wall framing for dry rot and repaired the damaged sections we uncovered - work that's never visible from the curb but matters for the longevity of the wall. We wrapped the home in HardieWrap breathable weather barrier and Forti-Flash flashing for moisture protection, then ran the Statement Collection lap siding with 5/4-by-4 ColorPlus trim around every opening and corner. Eaves, fascia, the garage door, and the foundation were painted to tie the whole exterior together.

On the openings, we installed six Anlin Catalina vinyl windows with Low-E 366 glass, an Anlin sliding glass door off the bedroom, and an Anlin Malibu swinging French door at the front entry.
