Why Choose Hardie Board Siding?

Hardie Board, also known as fiber cement siding, is one of the most durable and weather-resistant materials available today. It’s specifically engineered to withstand moisture, wind, pests, and fire—making it an ideal fit for Tacoma’s damp, variable climate. Homeowners appreciate its wood-like appearance without the high maintenance that natural wood requires. Available in a range of styles and factory-painted colors (with ColorPlus® Technology), Hardie Board offers long-lasting curb appeal with superior performance. It’s a great option for those who want the traditional look of siding with added resilience and minimal upkeep, making it a strong long-term investment for Pacific Northwest homes.

Hardie Board Installation & Replacement

Our team at Tacoma Siding is trained in the precise installation techniques required for Hardie Board siding. Unlike vinyl or wood, fiber cement is heavier and needs specialized tools and proper spacing to allow for expansion and drainage. We start by preparing your home’s exterior with a moisture barrier, followed by careful cutting and securing of the siding boards. For replacements, we remove outdated or damaged siding, inspect for any hidden water issues, and replace with Hardie Board matched to your preferred texture and color. Our installation process ensures tight seals, clean lines, and a beautiful finish that lasts for decades.

Hardie Board Siding Repairs

Although Hardie Board is known for its strength, it can still suffer damage from impact, improper installation, or moisture intrusion around unsealed edges. Our team handles repairs ranging from replacing individual boards to resealing joints and correcting flashing problems. We always inspect surrounding areas to ensure there’s no underlying rot or mold. Since the product is paintable, we also match colors carefully to ensure repairs blend seamlessly. Timely fixes help preserve the siding’s protective barrier and extend its service life.

Maintenance & Long-Term Performance

One of the key benefits of Hardie Board siding is its low-maintenance nature combined with high durability. Unlike wood, it won’t rot, warp, or attract pests. Unlike vinyl, it’s non-combustible and holds paint much longer thanks to factory-applied coatings. Homeowners should rinse the siding once or twice a year to remove dirt, pollen, and mildew—especially in shaded or damp areas. Touch-up paint or caulking may be needed every 10–15 years around windows or trim. Regular inspections ensure seals remain intact and water stays out. With proper care, Hardie Board siding can last 40 to 50 years or more, maintaining its appearance and protective qualities over time. Its dimensional stability and resistance to cracking make it ideal for the freeze-thaw cycles and rainfall typical in Tacoma. For homeowners seeking both peace of mind and timeless curb appeal, Hardie Board siding delivers exceptional long-term value. It’s a trusted choice backed by warranties and proven performance in homes across the Pacific Northwest.
