Replacing siding is one of the largest exterior improvements you can make to your home. New siding can dramatically improve curb appeal, but the most important parts of a quality siding project are often the components you can’t see after the project is finished.
When we remove existing siding, we gain access to the home’s exterior wall assembly. This allows us to inspect the sheathing and areas around windows, doors, penetrations, rooflines, decks, and other vulnerable locations for signs of moisture intrusion or deterioration.
A complete siding replacement may include:
Instead of viewing siding as an isolated product, we approach the exterior as a complete water-management system.

Elite Home Exteriors NW specializes in the installation of James Hardie fiber cement siding for homes throughout the Portland metro area, including Sherwood.
James Hardie siding gives homeowners the ability to dramatically update the appearance of a home while replacing aging or problematic exterior materials with a durable fiber cement siding system.
Depending on your home’s architecture and design goals, options can include:
Traditional horizontal lap siding remains one of the most popular choices for Pacific Northwest homes. Homeowners can choose between different textures, exposures, and exterior color combinations.
Vertical siding can create a modern farmhouse appearance or provide architectural contrast on gables, entryways, and other accent areas.
Hardie® shingle siding can add additional texture and character to gables and architectural features without requiring traditional cedar shake maintenance.
Architectural panel products provide another option for homeowners looking for clean lines and a more contemporary exterior.
Hardie® Trim can be incorporated around windows, doors, corners, fascia details, and other architectural elements to create a complete exterior design.

Oregon’s long wet season can expose weaknesses in an exterior wall system over time.
The siding itself isn’t always where the original problem started. Water can enter through improperly flashed windows, missing metal flashing, penetrations, failed caulking, siding installed too close to horizontal surfaces, or an inadequate weather-resistant barrier behind the siding.
Some of the problems we commonly look for include:
If you’re seeing several of these problems throughout the exterior, complete siding replacement may provide a better long-term solution than continuing to make isolated repairs.
Many homes throughout the Portland metropolitan area were constructed with older engineered wood siding products.
As these materials age, homeowners may notice swelling, deterioration along lower edges, failed coatings, soft areas, or moisture-related damage.
Simply covering damaged siding or replacing a few visibly deteriorated boards doesn’t necessarily address what may be happening behind the exterior.
During a complete siding replacement, removing the old siding allows us to evaluate the underlying wall assembly and address damaged materials before installing the new exterior system.
For homeowners planning to stay in their home long-term, this is one reason James Hardie fiber cement siding has become such a popular replacement option.
Cedar can create a beautiful exterior, but maintaining older cedar siding in Oregon can become increasingly difficult.
Over time, homeowners may encounter:
When cedar siding has deteriorated throughout multiple elevations, replacing it with James Hardie siding can provide the appearance of traditional siding with substantially different maintenance characteristics.
Removing the cedar also gives us an opportunity to inspect the wall underneath and improve the home’s weatherproofing system.
Beautiful siding is only the outermost layer of the exterior wall system.
Behind it is where some of the most important work takes place.
Elite Home Exteriors NW places a strong emphasis on exterior water management. Depending on project conditions, our siding systems may incorporate products and details such as:
These components work together to help direct incidental moisture away from vulnerable parts of the structure.

One of the biggest concerns homeowners have when replacing siding is:
“What happens if you remove the siding and find rot?”
Unfortunately, hidden water damage is something we encounter on exterior remodeling projects throughout the Pacific Northwest.
Rot frequently develops around vulnerable areas such as:
Our experience with siding replacement includes addressing the underlying damage before the new exterior system is installed.
That may involve replacing damaged sheathing and repairing deteriorated framing when necessary.
The goal is simple: don’t hide the problem behind new siding. Fix the underlying damage first.

A successful siding project requires more than attaching new boards to a house. Our process focuses on the complete exterior assembly.
We evaluate the existing siding, trim, flashing, visible moisture concerns, and other exterior conditions.
Existing siding is removed so the wall assembly underneath can be properly evaluated.
Once exposed, we inspect accessible areas for deterioration and water damage.
Damaged sheathing or framing discovered during the project is addressed before the new siding system covers the wall.
A new weather-resistant barrier is installed and integrated into the exterior water-management system.
Critical openings and penetrations receive careful attention because these areas can be common sources of water intrusion.
The selected siding and trim package is installed according to project requirements and manufacturer installation specifications.
Applicable joints are sealed, and pre-primed siding projects can be professionally finished with premium Sherwin-Williams exterior paint.
We inspect the completed exterior and clean the project area before wrapping up your siding transformation.
For pre-primed James Hardie projects, we frequently finish the siding and trim with premium Sherwin-Williams exterior paint.
This allows homeowners to select a customized color combination for:
Combining siding replacement and exterior painting into one coordinated project also helps create a consistent finished appearance across the home.
Not every cosmetic blemish means an entire home needs new siding. However, widespread deterioration can indicate that the exterior is approaching the point where replacement should be considered.
Schedule an exterior evaluation if you’re noticing:
A complete evaluation can help determine whether the issue is localized or part of a larger siding-system failure.
Choosing a siding contractor isn’t simply about finding someone who can install siding. The quality of the waterproofing, flashing, preparation, and installation details can have a major impact on the finished exterior.
James Hardie fiber cement siding is a major part of what we do. Our experience helps homeowners select appropriate siding profiles, trim details, and installation methods for their homes.
We pay close attention to what goes behind the siding—including weather barriers, flashing membranes, window integration, penetrations, and drainage details.
When deteriorated siding is removed, water damage can sometimes be significantly worse than what was visible from the outside. We’re experienced in identifying and addressing these conditions during siding replacement.
Our siding installations are backed by our Lifetime Workmanship Warranty for as long as the original homeowner owns the home, subject to the terms of our warranty.
