LP Siding Replacement & James Hardie Cedarmill Reside in Estacada, OR 97023

We began by removing the existing engineered siding (that went through a class action lawsuit) to fully inspect the exterior wall system and identify hidden moisture-related damage. During demolition, multiple areas of water intrusion were discovered, including rotting subwall plywood and damaged wall studs. All compromised materials were carefully removed and replaced to restore the structural integrity of the home and create a solid foundation for the new siding system.

Once repairs were completed, the home was wrapped with WeatherSmart House Wrap to provide a continuous moisture barrier and improve long-term weather protection. Fortiflash membrane window flashing was then installed around all windows and critical transition areas to create a watertight seal and help prevent future water intrusion.

The home was then resided using James Hardie Cedarmill Lap Siding, paired with James Hardie 5/4×4 trim around all corners, windows, and doors. The Cedarmill texture delivers the timeless appearance of natural wood grain while providing the superior durability and low-maintenance performance of fiber cement siding. Combined with the bold trim package, the finished exterior gives the home a clean, updated look built to withstand the demanding weather conditions of the Pacific Northwest.

Designed specifically for climates like Estacada, Oregon, this complete siding system offers exceptional resistance to moisture, rot, pests, warping, and seasonal weather changes. Replacing the failing wood siding with James Hardie products not only improved the home’s curb appeal, but also added a long-lasting layer of protection and durability for years to come.

The final result is a clean, modern, low-maintenance exterior built to perform in the wet Pacific Northwest climate while dramatically improving the overall appearance and protection of the home.
