Professional Siding Replacement in Oregon City OR

Replacing siding is about much more than changing the appearance of a home.

The siding, weather-resistant barrier, flashing, trim, caulking, and drainage details all work together as part of the home’s exterior building envelope. When one part of that system fails, moisture can reach the wall assembly and potentially cause deterioration that isn’t visible from the outside.

Elite Home Exteriors NW specializes in complete siding replacement projects where we can properly evaluate and rebuild these critical exterior components.

Our Oregon City siding projects may include:

Removal and disposal of existing siding
Inspection of exposed wall sheathing
Dry rot and water-damaged material replacement when discovered
Drainable weather-resistant barrier installation
Window and door membrane flashing
Z-metal and head flashing
Siding joint flashing where required
New exterior trim
James Hardie fiber cement siding
Professional exterior painting
Exterior caulking and finishing
Soffit and fascia replacement when included in the project
Gutter replacement when included in the exterior renovation

James Hardie Siding Contractor Serving Oregon City

For homeowners looking for durability, design flexibility, and resistance to Pacific Northwest weather, James Hardie fiber cement siding is one of our preferred siding systems.

Elite Home Exteriors NW specializes in James Hardie siding installation throughout the Portland metro area, including Oregon City.

James Hardie siding provides homeowners with numerous style possibilities, including:

HardiePlank® Lap Siding

HardiePlank lap siding provides the classic horizontal appearance found on many Pacific Northwest homes. Popular finishes include Cedarmill® and Smooth textures with multiple exposure options.

Hardie® Board and Batten

Vertical Hardie panels combined with battens can create a modern farmhouse, contemporary, or Craftsman-inspired exterior. Board and batten also works well as an architectural accent on gables and entry areas.

Hardie® Shingle Siding

Hardie shingle siding can provide the architectural appearance of cedar shake while offering the durability of fiber cement. It works especially well on gables and other accent areas.

Hardie® Trim

Proper trim installation helps complete the exterior while providing clean transitions around windows, doors, corners, and other architectural features.

Homeowners can explore siding styles, textures, and colors directly through James Hardie.

Why James Hardie Works Well for Oregon City Homes

Oregon City receives months of cool, wet weather, making moisture management an important consideration when selecting and installing an exterior siding system.

James Hardie fiber cement siding is engineered to resist many of the problems associated with traditional wood-based siding products.

Benefits can include:

Resistance to damage from moisture
Noncombustible fiber cement construction
Resistance to pests
Excellent dimensional stability
Low maintenance compared with traditional wood siding
Multiple architectural styles and textures
Strong manufacturer warranty options
Excellent compatibility with properly designed rain-screen and drainage assemblies

The product itself, however, is only part of the equation.

Even premium siding needs proper flashing and water management behind it.

That’s why our approach emphasizes the entire exterior wall system.

Common Siding Problems on Oregon City Homes

Homes throughout Oregon City can experience siding deterioration caused by age, weather exposure, installation deficiencies, and inadequate water management.

Some of the problems we frequently address on siding replacement projects include:

Failing Engineered Wood Siding

Older engineered wood siding can swell, deteriorate, delaminate, or develop rot after repeated moisture exposure.

Damage commonly begins around siding joints, window openings, lower courses, penetrations, roof-to-wall intersections, and areas where water isn’t properly directed away from the siding.

When deterioration has become widespread, complete siding replacement often provides a better long-term solution than repeatedly repairing isolated areas.

Rotting Cedar Siding

Cedar can create a beautiful Pacific Northwest exterior, but it requires ongoing maintenance.

Over time, moisture exposure and coating failure can lead to splitting, cupping, deterioration, and rot.

Homeowners tired of the maintenance associated with older cedar siding often choose James Hardie fiber cement as a more durable replacement.

Cracked, Warped or Aging Vinyl Siding

Vinyl siding can become cracked, warped, loose, faded, or damaged over time.

When homeowners want to upgrade both the appearance and exterior protection of their home, replacing aging vinyl with a properly installed fiber cement siding system can dramatically transform the property.

Improperly Installed Fiber Cement

Having fiber cement siding doesn’t automatically mean the exterior was installed correctly.

We have encountered homes where existing fiber cement siding lacked important installation details such as appropriate clearances, flashing, joint protection, or proper water management behind the siding.

In these situations, the problem may be the installation rather than the siding material itself.

Oregon City Siding Replacement Should Start With Water Management

One of the most important parts of a siding replacement project is what you won’t see when the project is finished.

Behind the siding is the home’s weather-resistant barrier and flashing system.

This layer helps manage water that gets behind the exterior cladding and directs it toward the outside instead of allowing moisture to remain against the wall assembly.

Elite Home Exteriors NW places significant emphasis on building-envelope protection during our siding replacement projects.

Drainable Weather-Resistant Barrier

Depending on the project specifications, we may use a drainable weather-resistant barrier such as Benjamin Obdyke HydroGap® or another high-quality WRB system.

A drainable WRB creates a pathway for water behind the siding to move downward and escape rather than remaining trapped against the wall.

Learn more about Benjamin Obdyke HydroGap and the principles behind drainable wall assemblies.

Window and Door Flashing

Windows and doors are among the most important areas of an exterior wall assembly.

Our siding replacement process may include membrane flashing around window and door openings to help integrate those openings with the weather-resistant barrier.

Depending on project specifications, this may include products such as Benjamin Obdyke HydroFlash®.

Correct integration between the window, flashing membrane, WRB, head flashing, trim, and siding is critical for long-term water management.

Z-Metal and Head Flashing

Horizontal trim and other exterior transitions may require metal flashing to prevent water from entering behind the wall assembly.

Z-metal flashing helps direct water outward and away from vulnerable horizontal transitions.

These small details may not be visually dramatic when the project is finished, but they can make a major difference in the performance of an exterior wall.

Siding Joint Flashing

Properly installed flashing behind siding butt joints provides another layer of protection against water reaching the wall assembly.

When installing James Hardie lap siding, we follow applicable manufacturer installation requirements and project specifications for joint treatment and flashing.

Our philosophy is simple:

The details behind the siding matter just as much as the siding you see.

Hidden Dry Rot Behind Siding

One of the biggest concerns during siding replacement is discovering damage that wasn’t visible before demolition.

A wall can appear relatively normal from the exterior while moisture has been affecting the sheathing or framing underneath.

Common areas where hidden damage may be discovered include:

Below windows
Around doors
Roof-to-wall intersections
Deck connections
Exterior penetrations
Lower wall sections
Areas without proper flashing
Siding transitions
Locations where water has repeatedly entered behind the cladding

Elite Home Exteriors NW has extensive experience dealing with dry rot discovered during siding replacement.

Our dry rot work is primarily associated with larger siding replacement and exterior renovation projects. We are not positioned as a handyman service for isolated pieces of rotten trim or other minor exterior repairs.

When deteriorated materials are discovered after siding removal, we can evaluate the affected area and determine what needs to be replaced before the new weather barrier and siding are installed.

Signs Your Oregon City Home May Need New Siding

Not every siding problem is obvious.

Homeowners should consider having their exterior evaluated when they notice:

Swollen or deteriorating siding
Soft siding or trim
Peeling or bubbling exterior paint
Cracked siding
Warped siding
Loose siding
Rot around windows or doors
Repeated caulking failures
Water staining
Mold or mildew in suspicious areas
Siding touching roofs, decks, soil, or hardscape
Missing flashing
Failed siding joints
Increasing exterior maintenance
Multiple areas requiring repair

One isolated problem doesn’t necessarily mean an entire home needs new siding.

But when failures are widespread or the existing exterior system has reached the end of its practical service life, complete siding replacement can provide a more comprehensive long-term solution.

Our Oregon City Siding Replacement Process

We approach siding replacement as a complete exterior system rather than simply installing new material over existing problems.

1. Exterior Evaluation

We begin by evaluating the existing siding, trim, visible flashing conditions, penetrations, windows, doors, and areas showing signs of deterioration.

2. Project Planning

We determine the appropriate siding system, trim details, weather-resistant barrier, flashing components, and finish specifications for the project.

3. Existing Siding Removal

The old siding is removed so the underlying wall assembly can be exposed.

4. Wall Inspection

Once demolition is underway, previously hidden areas can be evaluated for deterioration or water damage.

5. Necessary Rot Restoration

Damaged sheathing, framing, or other affected materials included within the project’s scope are addressed before the wall is covered again.

6. Weather Barrier Installation

The wall is protected with the specified weather-resistant barrier and integrated with appropriate flashing details.

7. James Hardie Siding & Trim Installation

New siding and trim are installed according to project specifications and applicable manufacturer requirements.

8. Caulking & Exterior Finishing

Required joints and transitions are professionally sealed using high-quality exterior sealants such as OSI QUAD MAX.

9. Exterior Painting

When using primed James Hardie products, the exterior can be finished with premium Sherwin-Williams exterior coatings in the homeowner’s selected color scheme.

Primed & Painted James Hardie vs. ColorPlus®

Oregon City homeowners can choose between factory-finished James Hardie ColorPlus siding and primed James Hardie siding that is professionally painted after installation.

Both can be excellent options.

Primed James Hardie + Field-Applied Paint

Primed siding provides extensive flexibility when selecting exterior colors. After installation, the siding and trim can be professionally painted using premium exterior coatings.

This is an excellent option for homeowners who want maximum color flexibility or a custom exterior palette.

James Hardie ColorPlus Technology

ColorPlus products receive their finish in a controlled factory environment and are available in a curated selection of James Hardie colors.

This can be an excellent choice for homeowners who prefer a factory-applied finish.

The right choice depends on the home’s architecture, desired color, project specifications, and homeowner preferences.

Exterior Painting With Your Siding Replacement

When installing primed James Hardie siding, professional painting becomes the final component of the exterior transformation.

Elite Home Exteriors NW frequently uses premium Sherwin-Williams exterior coatings on our siding projects.

A complete siding and painting project allows the siding, trim, fascia, soffits, doors, and other included exterior elements to work together as one coordinated design.

Why Choose Elite Home Exteriors NW for Your Oregon City Siding Project?

James Hardie Expertise

Working with Ian and his team was a wonderful experience. We met with a handful of companies before picking a contractor. Most spent hours mansplaining how siding works through formal presentations with imagery of worst case scenarios and reasons for why you should only work with their team. Ian listened to us, respected our time, and was very easy to work with. His team did incredible work with the siding and roofing on our house, and they went above and beyond to help us add a new covered entrance to our home. Our house feels brand new and we couldn’t be happier with it or our experience throughout this process.

Elite Home Exteriors NW is the BEST choice for siding replacement.  They go beyond just installing, but provide information about Hardie product, the care of siding after the install and pro & con of choices we made.  They never force options but provide expert information by which we were able to make the right choices.  They have expert, skilled installers & painters who worked with us to insure a near perfect installation. I have worked with contractors for over 50 years and Elite is the most trustworthy company I have ever had business with.

Really wish we were able to give 6 stars here... Bottom Line: Elite Home Exteriors NW (Ian & the whole team) made one of the largest projects we've tackled absolutely seamless with spectacular results. We are soooo happy with how everything turned out!

Our home was built around 1920, covered in very old cedar shakes and was probably one of the more... interesting and "unique" houses this team had to work with. Nothing is square/level, exterior electrical conduit/plumbing stack everywhere, we found dry rot and missing sheathing - you know, all the fun problems. Ian convinced us (and later proved to us) that his team could handle it.

Some of the highlights of Elite's work:
- From the first meeting with Ian and getting a proposal, we knew we were getting an honest and genuine quote. He made us feel so comfortable  with the project and helped us see the end result
- The quote came in and hit our budget goal, right from the get go
- The crew that came to demo and remove all the old siding were great to work with. They identified problems, notified us promptly and came up with some great solutions to resolve (dry rot, missing studs, missing sheathing)
- The same crew cleaned up every night before they left and were always ready to go first thing in the morning
- New house wrap (great house wrap by the way) and siding went up over the course of a week. We were super impressed with some of the specialized cuts they had to make!
- Later, they pressure washed the ENTIRE house (including the deck) and started caulking. The caulking in and of itself looked fantastic
- A separate painting crew came through and finished up the project ahead of schedule. The overall masking and attention to detail getting all the eaves, beams, gutters, downspouts painted went flawlessly (props to Sherwin Williams paint BTW)

Overall, what we thought was going to be a long, drawn-out and stressful project only turned out to be the exact opposite.  Ian's crew(s) took just over a month to finish this two story house with detached garage. We still walk around the house every night and admire the quality of the work and reflect on just how happy we are with the whole situation. It honestly feels like a brand new house... We would HAPPILY recommend Elite Home Exteriors NW to anyone looking to tackle siding replacement and painting for their homes!

The South wall of the house had rot and cut siding from a previous connected wood deck. Ian was a pleasure to work with and a consummate professional from start to finish.
He answered detailed questions, gave me several options to fit within my budget. Ian communicated with me throughout the process, and was accommodating when I requested more detail, or a change during planning phase. His crew shows up on schedule, were friendly and courteous of my property, and cleaned up thoroughly before leaving. The job was completed quickly and within budget. The new siding and paint is an asset to this house and exceeds my expectations. I enjoyed working with Ian, and would recommend Elite Home Exteriors NW to anyone considering a siding update for their home.

Nice job by Nick and his team.  I'm a realtor and needed to have a vinyl repair job done for my client.  The vinyl siding was melted by long term use of a BBQ grill.    Nick & crew matched the style and color perfectly.  The job was done quickly, on time, and the invoice matched the quote.  If you need the job done, and done correctly, call Elite Home Exteriors, they'll take care of you.  Look no further!

 Verified We hired Elite Home Exteriors to remove vinyl siding and replace it with Hardie lap siding.  We were concerned that water may have leaked behind the vinyl siding and caused unseen damage.  We got several bids and Ian's bid was not the lowest, but it was the most detailed in terms on scope of work and he offered a much better warranty than the other companies.  Ian patiently answered all of my questions either verbally or by email and made me feel comfortable with his competence to do a great job for us.  And he did!  His crew was well-trained and paid attention to detail.  The work was done well and completed in a timely manner.  The workers cleaned up after they finished and did not leave any loose ends.  I highly recommend Elite Home Exteriors for any siding project you may be considering.

  Needed some siding and soffit work on a 1922 aluminum siding dormer. Ian came out, looked at the project, and started the very next week. All of his workers were top notch and friendly.  They even relocated a squirrel family living in our eaves. This job was done quickly and efficiently and the communication was excellent. Ian  came out several times to check on the work and answer any questions we had. Their cleanup was great- just a few stray nails and debris, but that’s to be expected.
He actually fixed a couple of areas that weren’t in the scope of the project for no extra charge. The painters he subcontracted with were also wonderful.
I HIGHLY recommend Ian and his team for any of your siding needs.Couldn’t have gone smoother and I know that’s not always the case.

  We invited Ian to provide an assessment and bid on some decaying wood decorative shingles on our home.  From the minute he pulled up and walked around, this felt like someone I could trust.  There was one area of concern that may have some rot into the house.  When his team got to that section they were unsure what they would find.  And to my pleasant surprise and appreciation, they found nothing.  A small section that he fixed for free, not more in the bid.  His team was prompt, friendly, and did an exceptional job.  From preparation to final clean up, this is the type of vendor you want to have everyone emulate his professionalism, honesty, and commitment to follow up and making things right.  He has earned our business for life and would recommend him to any friends, family, or neighbors.

  Choose this company for you siding, you won't be sorry!  The owner Ian, is far and above best contractor I have ever worked with.  Excels at communication, follow up and explains everything in a friendly non-pressure way. I interviewed three other contractors, before settling on Elite. I knew I would be in good hands for this huge investment with Ian as he was genuine and sincere about providing the best result.  Both the siding and the paint crew are top notch professionals, with a great work ethic and attention to detail, they are Hardie trained so you can be sure the installation was done to the highest standard and it shows! We went from ugly worn out 20 year vinyl to James Hardie siding, and the difference astounding, very very happy with what feels like a new house now.

  Ian Vidovic is the owner/manager of Elite Home Exteriors, and we consider ourselves extremely fortunate to have accepted his bid for replacing the hardi-plank siding on an exterior wall of our house in Camas, Washington. Our house is on Prune Hill, and the eastern wall faces the onslaught of the Gorge winds and its rain, snow, and ice storms. Long-term damage in our 22-year old house included dry rot all the way to the studs. Ian's bid was not only reasonable, but his word was bond. His crews came on time, as promised. The demolition was completed in one day. The replacement siding in another day. The wall was pressure-washed and painted by a professional crew. Ian was honest, communicative, and very personable. He is the BEST contractor we have ever employed, and we highly recommend him and his company.  Stephen Chipps & Laura Sherrill

  Ian did incredible work for my clients and I!! I am a real estate broker and it's so difficult to find a siding company that can work within the timing constraints of a real estate transaction. Ian did! In the inspection period, it was discovered that my client's soon-to-be-home had siding that was completely failing. Ian went out same day to take a look and provided a quick and accurate quote a few hours later. Not only was his pricing reasonable, but he was able to get the siding job completed before the close of the transaction. My clients have moved into their freshly sided home and are eager for Spring so they can work with Ian to paint it!! He was so communicative and friendly throughout the process. I will be calling him for my own home and recommending him to clients as well! 10/10!

  I would definitely recommend calling Ian at Elite Home Exteriors NW. He is a certified Hardi Plank installer. We unfortunately hired another company to save a couple thousand dollars. (Small HOA, I was out numbered) I really wanted to hire him for several reasons. They are Elite Preferred Installers and definitely deserve and have earned the title. Ian was so helpful and knowledgeable when we were getting estimates for the job. Even though we used a different siding company, he was kind enough to come and inspect the job after installation and before painting!.
So thankful he did this for us!
He found a piece of Z metal  flashing was completely missing on top of a trim board. These details are so important! And something a layman like us, are just not going to notice. He also pointed out how thin the caulking line is. I noticed it was not a nice pretty, straight, clean line.  Definitely makes sense that it should be thicker. He also would have replaced the old plastic vents with a newer type that birds can't get into and build their own little homes. Which makes perfect sense! When your replacing 26 year old siding you should upgrade vents also.
I really can't express how much I appreciate all of Ian's help. I would highly recommend hiring him for your Hardie Plank installation. He knows the product and installation process very well and has a sharp eye for details. Which is really what you want and need when spending thousands on siding.

Thank you Ian! Thank you so much for all of your help.

  My home has a fairly complex exterior, and we were looking to re-side the home as we were dealing with constant issues of water intrusion.

I was searching the greater Portland/Vancouver area for Siding Contractors for Hardie Siding, as we really just wanted something that would hold up against the elements and protect us in the case of any nearby fires (we’re close to some woods). After meeting Ian from Elite Home Exteriors, we decided to go with him and we couldn’t have been happier that we decided to go with him as out Siding Contractor. We had additional problems from the water damage too, and the folks he recommended were also top notch.

Ian and team are a James Hardie Elite Preferred Siding Contractor, which means basically that he’s passed the highest certification for installing James Hardie siding products. I would work with him again, but based on his fit and finish, I probably won’t need to! Thanks Ian!

  I have to say, Ian has been a joy to work with.

He is professional, thoroughly helpful, knowledgeable, and detail focused. His standards for fit and finish meant that the job is done right the first time… which is not something I can say for every siding contractor I’ve ever worked with.

For what it’s worth, Ian is a James Hardie Elite Preferred Siding Contractor, which means he has passed the highest standards of how to properly and beautifully install James Hardie siding products. Hardie siding is a pretty great fit for the northwest, as it resists both water AND fire… I am frankly relieved by no longer having to worry about water intrusion after the great job that Ian and Elite Home Exteriors did on our home. I would absolutely work with them again.

  Working with Ian and his company was an absolute pleasure. I currently own 2 homes and have had 3 previous houses, so I’ve had experience with many contractors over the last 20 years and most are not good. My husband and I had a water intrusion issue (undisclosed to us during a house purchase) that we subsequently discovered for ourselves 6 months later in the rainy season. After meeting with many contactors to figure out how to execute the repair, we decided that their prices were outrageous even for just a patch job and we decided to do the right thing and replace all the wood siding with Hardie plank. My husband found Ian online, and we met with him. He is excellent at communication, through emails/text and/or phone calls. He was always pleasant to meet with and didn’t talk to me as if I was a dumb homeowner, which happens quite a bit in this industry. He was happy to answer all my questions and work with us on a documented design for adding architectural details so there was no questions on how the job would look. He and his crew were always punctual and professional. They finished the job ahead of schedule and did everything promised. Honestly, the water intrusion situation was very stressful, but Ian made it a pleasure to get resolved. I am so happy that we went with him and have had excellent results. My high-strung HOA was even happy about his work and gave us a compliment. I wholeheartedly recommend him, and I would be happy to talk to anyone wanting a reference about our pleasant experience. It isn’t every day that such a huge job is completed with such ease and professionalism. I 100% recommend working with Ian and Elite Home Exteriors NW – you won’t be disappointed!

  Glad I hired Ian and his team to replace siding on the south-facing side of my house.  Communication with Ian throughout project was as good as any contractor I've worked with.  The work was done well, went smoothly, just what you want.  Also glad to see them not show up in expensive vehicle wrapped graphics, etc that the customer pays for.  I'll have more siding to do on my house and will hire them again.

  Great communication by the company. The workers are skilled, arrived on time, and they are very friendly.  We love the work they did on our house.  The new siding makes our older home look like a new house!

  Work performed - Independent Siding Consultation and Detailed Work Estimate

We contacted Ian V. at Elite Home Exteriors NW after searching online for a specialist siding contractor and then speaking to his father in WA while Ian was on a family vacation… he came to quote promptly upon his return, for a very large exterior home renovation project. The bid came from Ian quickly, following a thorough walk-through inspection and in great detail, and was several thousand dollars less than 2 other bids we’d received for exactly the same scope of work.

Although we chose to use another company to work with, Ian remained gracious, asked some great questions to remain involved with our decisions, and even came and visited the work site to consult after siding work had started (and framing/shiplap was exposed to assess damage and advise). He wanted to ensure that although we weren’t employing his company, that his  competitor wasn’t missing anything that would jeopardize the success of the overall project and that we could feel confident in our discussions with them when the time came to discuss details of the repair process. When asked about compensation for this service, he graciously declined, gave us his ideas and thoughts so we could remain entirely informed, and confident of the work being performed. He remained available as an independent resource. We know there are a lot of choices to make when renovating a home, and although we didn’t use Elite in this occasion, we feel extremely lucky to have met Ian and look forward to working with them in some capacity in the future. Incidentally, he connected us to his roofing colleagues who replaced our roof and our experience with them was second to none… the pair are a real class act.
Wholeheartedly recommend contacting them, allowing them to bid on work and discussion expectations, as they are very experienced in quite unorthodox situations relating to siding repair, replacement and dry rot arising from compromised stucco and EFIS.
We honestly can’t thank Ian & his team enough for caring (unequivocally) for us from the outset.

  Excellent, attentive service, Ian answered all my questions whenever I asked them. We had our house looking new with better siding and a new paint job within a month. Zero complaints at all, really happy with the results. Absolutely recommended.

  We used Ian to repair the dry rot on our current home. He was extremely responsive and his team did a high quality job. We then asked him to look at the siding on our new home and he came the following day! Wouldn't trust our siding work to anyone else.

  I chose to contract the team at Elite Home Exteriors NW to replace my siding as they had a fair price and provided a detail guide of materials, process and standards. They exceeded my expectations by finishing work early, were quick to communicate, did a fantastic job of replacing the siding and the team that did the install were friendly and helpful. I would solidly recommend Elite Home Exteriors!

  We hired Elite to replace our 90 year old cedar shingle with Hardie siding (10 inch reveal + board/batten). They also replaced our gutters and painted the house.

From start to finish, Ian and Nick were a pleasure to deal with. We closely compared their bid to another contractor and decided to go with them even though they were marginally more expensive as they added more value during the sales process to our decision making and it felt like their bid was "more inclusive". The work itself was done to a very high quality and any issues were resolved quickly and fairly. As part of the siding work, we found some significant dry rot in our sill plate and rim joist on one corner. Elite took this repair work on for a very reasonable cost and ensured it didn't impact the overall schedule. Elite were also very flexible when our requirements changed for certain sections during the process and when there was a cost differential it was always very reasonable.

I would strongly recommend Elite to anyone, we are delighted with the finished product and have had many positive comments from neighbours and passers-by.

  Update: The team went above and beyond.  I had additional projects I needed help with on the exterior of my home and the team was right there quickly and throughly helped me accomplish them.  Superior service.  -   Elite Home Exteriors was amazing.  Definitely the largest renovation I’ve ever done my to my house and the team took care of me the entire way.  They were always responsive and always took the time to answer all my questions. They even completed the project ahead of schedule!  All I had to do was sit back and wait.  Would defiantly recommend Elite Home Exteriors NW.  They went above and beyond!

  We hired Elite Home Exteriors to replace the siding on the back of our house with James Hardie Sierra 8" fiber cement as the old T1-11 siding was showing its age.  The rest of the T1-11 siding on the house looked good so we opted to leave it in place except for one section where a previous owner had cut through the siding to install a dog door.  We had this additional section replaced with matching T1-11 siding.  After the siding was installed/replaced we had Elite Home Exteriors paint the house as well.

I felt like we were in good hands throughout the entire process.  Ian was very helpful guiding us through the  process from start to finish and very quick to respond to any questions we had along the way.  The crews that worked on the house were great and answered even more questions I had the days the work was being done.
The siding looks great.  The paint job looks great.  These guys know what they are doing.

  Ian and Nick did a great job on our bungalow downtown. It was a full siding replacement, roof, and paint job. It was a big job. We got six quotes because we were interested in repairing the original siding under the outer layers. We eventually realized this wasn't feasible because there wasn't any barrier under the original siding - not even paper which does exist on some early 1900s houses. Ian was great at listening to our requirements and just as good at getting his team to implement them. We are very happy with the work they did and would highly recommend them. Simply put, after getting all the quotes it was clear Ian understood what we wanted when he put it in writing. More importantly it was all delivered at the cost that was in the quote. I'd highly recommend this company to anyone.

  We worked with Elite Home Exteriors NW for both replacing our roof and refreshing our exterior paint.  Ian and all of his crew were incredibly great to work with, staying communicative along the whole process from start to finish and being flexible with their schedules!  Additionally, they took extra measures to ensure the outcome of those projects (i.e. pressuring washing the entire house, cleaning up gutters, and fixing/replacing broken siding).  Both projects went along without a hitch and our home looks brand new (and AMAZING).  Quality products, quality service, but more importantly…quality people who take great pride in the services they provide.  I highly recommend them to anyone needing to replace or upgrade their homes.  It was a brilliant experience and couldn’t be more thankful for hiring them.

  Elite Home Exteriors NW did a complete residing (Hardi) and painting of my 2-story house.  All team members, (company rep, siding and paint) were professional, thorough, and detail oriented.  The final result is superb.  There aren't enough positive adjectives to describe the excellent job on all fronts these folks did.  I would highly recommend this company!

  This project was a complete Hardi residing of a two story house with complicated roof lines and many windows. The siding work was completed in November and final paint in March '21 (due to our typical Vancouver WA rainy weather moving in for the season!). The final result is excellent! Both teams, siding and paint, were meticulous and focused on the finer details. They were a pleasure to work with. From initial quotes through to regular updates during the project, communication was responsive and thorough. Ian, co-owner and customer facing rep, was a pleasure to work with and his customer focused attention was exceptional. I highly recommend Elite Home Exteriors NW. They are experts and top of the class in this business.

Traditional horizontal lap siding
Smooth modern lap siding
Cedarmill textured lap siding
Board and batten
Vertical siding
Shake and shingle accents

Oregon City Siding Contractor FAQs

How do I know whether my Oregon City home needs siding replacement?

Widespread swelling, cracking, rot, failed paint, loose siding, moisture intrusion, repeated repairs, or deterioration across multiple elevations may indicate that replacement should be considered. An exterior evaluation can help determine the overall condition.

What siding do you recommend for Oregon City homes?

We frequently recommend James Hardie fiber cement siding because of its durability, design options, and suitability for Pacific Northwest homes. The best siding system still depends on the house and project requirements.

Can you replace engineered wood siding with James Hardie?

Yes. Replacing deteriorating engineered wood siding with James Hardie fiber cement is a common type of project for our company.

Can you replace cedar siding with James Hardie?

Yes. Homeowners who want to reduce the maintenance associated with aging cedar frequently consider fiber cement siding.

Do you repair dry rot discovered behind the siding?

We can address appropriate dry rot and water-damaged materials discovered as part of larger siding replacement projects. Our rot services are primarily associated with complete exterior renovation rather than small isolated repair calls.

Do you install a new weather barrier?

On projects requiring complete siding removal, the exterior wall can be prepared with the specified weather-resistant barrier and flashing system before new siding is installed.

Do you flash around windows and doors?

Proper water management around exterior openings is a critical part of our siding replacement approach. Flashing requirements are evaluated according to the conditions and specifications of each project.

Do you paint James Hardie siding?

Yes. Primed James Hardie siding can be professionally finished with premium exterior paint. We also work with James Hardie ColorPlus products when appropriate.

How long does siding replacement take?

Project duration depends on the size and complexity of the home, siding design, weather, access, and whether concealed damage is discovered during demolition. We discuss anticipated scheduling as part of the project process.

Do you offer small siding or trim repairs?

Our company is primarily focused on complete siding replacement and larger exterior renovation projects rather than handyman-style repairs or replacement of individual pieces of trim.
