Hardie Board Siding In Richmond VA & Surrounding Areas

Hardie board is a fiber cement siding option for homeowners considering a complete exterior upgrade. Professional Home Services provides siding installation and full replacement in Richmond VA and surrounding communities. A useful estimate begins with the condition of the existing exterior and the siding profile you want.

Compare Fiber Cement Profiles And Trim

Compare the visible profile, finish and trim as one exterior system. Fiber cement has product specific fastening, cutting and clearance requirements. Ask which product is being proposed and how it will meet the manufacturer's installation requirements for your home.

Prepare The Walls For Fiber Cement Siding

A full replacement project should account for old siding removal, wall preparation, flashing at openings and transitions near roofs or other materials. Covering damaged material without understanding its condition can leave the real problem in place. The agreed scope should explain how concealed conditions will be handled.
