3 Key Benefits Of James Hardie Siding
James Hardie siding is a game-changer when it comes to protecting your home and improving its curb appeal. James Hardie’s siding is built to withstand the harsh Pacific Northwest climate, offers numerous customization options, and is backed with an unbeatable warranty.

Stands Up Against The Pacific Northwest’s Tough Climate
Let’s face it – the Pacific Northwest isn’t the kindest climate, and it can take a toll on your home’s exterior. Your siding must withstand high humidity, constant rain, and fluctuating temperatures. That’s why we use Hardie siding. It’s:
- Waterproof to keep heavy rainfall, snow, and moisture out
- Warp-resistant and able to withstand fluctuating temperatures
- Heat-resistant to avoid early damage from heat exposure (i.e., outdoor grills)
In our opinion, Hardie siding is the BEST option for Portland Metro and Southwest Washington homeowners. It’s durable, weather-resistant, and our #1 recommendation. No matter the system you choose, it’ll look great and last – for decades.

Tons Of Color And Style Options For A Customized Look
Did you know that James Hardie has 700+ color options?! That’s right. 700. Before James Hardie, we didn’t know that many colors even existed. More than that, they offer 20+ style solutions for you to choose from, including:
- HardiePanel® Vertical Siding options such as Board and Batten, Cedarmill, Sierra 8, and Smooth
- HardiePlank® Lap Siding that’s available in multiple reveal sizes to accommodate different looks and styles of homes
- HardieShingle® Siding options such as staggered edge panels, straight-edge panels, and half-rounds
In total, there are more than 14,000 style and color combinations. Check out our James Hardie Product Catalog to explore some of your options. We’ll also bring samples and help you choose the perfect solution for your home and design preferences.

Hardie Siding Comes With A Non-Prorated 30-Year Warranty
Most companies offer a prorated warranty – the value decreases by 2% or so every year. By the time you need to use your warranty, it may not be worth all that much. With James Hardie, it’s different – the warranty is non-prorated for 30 whole years. When we install your Hardie siding, you get:
- Full coverage for repairs or replacements
- A warranty that is valid for ALL James Hardie siding systems
- A LIFETIME labor warranty, no matter the system you choose
We can offer James Hardie’s most superior warranty because of our “Elite” status with them. They trust us to install your siding right the FIRST time.
What Our Southwest Washington & Portland Metro Area
James Hardie Siding Customers Have To Say
Extremely efficient, very thorough, and respectful
I am impressed with these professional installers at Superior Exterior Systems. They came highly recommended to me by a friend, who had her entire sidings on her house done, in addition to her deck over the summer of 2024. I got to see their work and went with them as well They did not disappoint. While my project were only 1 siding replacement and two new 2 new Milgard window installments, they gave it as much attention. Art and his crew were extremely efficient, very thorough, and respectful of the property. They removed the old and left the property neat and tidy. It was worth the wait. Just knowing that they were thorough and experts at what they do gave me peace of mind. And did I mention that temperatures in both of my bedrooms that the sidings and windows were replaced felt noticeably warmer?!!
Definitely recommend this company to my family or friends
The owner of the company came to our home to explain what he could do for us. He came prepared and with material that gave us choices. He went into great detail so we understood what we were paying for. He gave us opportunities to ask questions and he answered them thoroughly. When he left we understood exactly what they were going to do. We had never had to replace siding before this house, so we had little knowledge on this process. He also explained that he would be coming by to do quality control inspections weekly. He personally came by as promised each week and checked on the job. The owner was always available by phone should a problem come up. We had no need to call him as he had a foreman that was quite capable.The price was reasonable and fair as we had bids to compare them to. The job went smoothly and started earlier than expected. I was impressed as to how respectful the guys working were. They even parked their cars on the street so they would not be in my way. They weather was quite rainy at times but they worked even with the rain. I think the only thing that slowed things down was a couple of icy days, which was totally understandable. The guys cleaned up the mess and talked with us at the completion of the job. Later we noticed a vent that did not get cut out , probably because it got dark before they left. We called and he came right out and did the work with an apology. I would definitely recommend this company to my family or friends. They are honest and dependable. I found the owner and his crew to be great to work with.
I am happy to have done business with this company
The inspection that I had before purchasing my home identified the siding needed attention, in places, immediately. Doing what is always recommended, I contacted three businesses for quotes. All came in at, roughly, the same range. Superior Exterior Systems and Bill came with a recommendation from someone that I knew. Superior Exterior Systems was not the lowest bid. But, meeting with Bill, was happy with his long-time experience and attention to a few details that he pointed out to me as we did our bid walk-around. I also thought I would have to wait until a slot came open for the job to be scheduled, but they began working the following week. The job is now finished and it looks terrific. I have had compliments from my neighbor on how great it looks and my nephew, whose opinion I respect, also said it looked like a very good job. I am happy to have done business with this company and recommend them.

How Does ColorPlus Technology Compare To Traditional Paint?
ColorPlus paint is “baked on.” That means they cure the paint to the James Hardie fiber cement for a strong bond. Essentially, the paint becomes one with the siding rather than simply adding an extra layer to it.
So, when it’s exposed to the tough Pacific Northwest weather, it doesn’t crack, chip, or peel. It LASTS.
How Much Does James Hardie Siding Cost?
Of course, the exact price of your project depends on the size of your home. However, on average, we’re not the cheapest or the most expensive James Hardie siding contractor. Instead, we aim for the best overall value, ensuring a nice balance between quality and affordability.
