Elite Home Exteriors NW specializes in the installation of James Hardie® fiber cement siding systems for homes throughout Tualatin and the Portland metro area.
James Hardie siding is an excellent choice for homeowners looking for the appearance of traditional siding with greater resistance to moisture, rot, pests and changing weather conditions.
Available siding options include:
As a James Hardie Elite Preferred Alliance contractor, our focus isn’t simply installing new boards over your home. We pay close attention to the entire exterior wall assembly—including weather-resistant barriers, flashing, drainage, penetrations, trim details and water management.
Some siding problems can be addressed with maintenance, but widespread deterioration often requires a more comprehensive solution.
Elite Home Exteriors NW specializes in full siding replacement projects where the existing exterior is removed so the condition of the wall underneath can be properly evaluated.
We replace many types of aging and failing siding, including:
Removing the existing siding gives us an opportunity to inspect areas that aren’t visible from the outside and address water-management problems before installing the new exterior.
For homeowners investing in a complete exterior transformation, this approach provides an opportunity to improve appearance, durability and moisture protection at the same time.
Siding doesn’t always fail dramatically. Many problems develop gradually after years of exposure to rain, moisture and seasonal weather.
Watch for:
Visible siding damage may only be part of the problem.
When moisture gets behind the exterior, deterioration can develop in the sheathing, framing and other components of the wall assembly without being easily visible from the outside.
Homes in Tualatin need exterior systems designed with moisture management in mind.
A siding system isn’t waterproof simply because the siding material itself is durable. Wind-driven rain and moisture can reach areas behind an exterior through joints, penetrations, windows, doors and transitions.
That’s why the materials behind the siding are so important.
A properly designed exterior wall assembly should provide a secondary line of defense that helps manage incidental moisture and direct it back toward the exterior.
At Elite Home Exteriors NW, we approach siding replacement as a complete exterior system—not simply a cosmetic upgrade.
The siding is the part everyone sees.
Some of the most important components are the ones you won’t see after the project is complete.
Depending on the home and project specifications, our siding replacement systems can incorporate:
These details help create a siding assembly designed to manage Pacific Northwest moisture for the long term.
One of the biggest concerns during a siding replacement project is what may be hiding underneath the existing exterior.
Water intrusion can damage:
Unfortunately, hidden damage isn’t always visible until the existing siding is removed.
When deterioration is discovered during one of our siding replacement projects, Elite Home Exteriors NW can evaluate the affected area and complete the necessary repairs before covering the wall with the new siding system.
The goal is simple:
Don’t hide an existing moisture problem behind beautiful new siding.
Correct the damaged areas, improve the water-management details and then install the new exterior properly.
A successful siding project involves considerably more than removing old siding and installing new boards.
We evaluate the existing siding, trim, flashing and visible problem areas and discuss your goals for the project.
The existing siding is carefully removed and disposed of as part of the replacement process.
Once the old exterior has been removed, previously concealed areas can be inspected for deterioration and water damage.
If damaged sheathing, framing or other affected materials are discovered, the necessary repairs can be addressed before the wall is covered.
A properly installed weather-resistant barrier helps provide a secondary drainage and moisture-management layer behind the siding.
Critical openings and penetrations are integrated into the water-management system using appropriate flashing techniques and materials.
The selected James Hardie siding, trim and architectural details are installed according to the project specifications and applicable manufacturer requirements.
Z-metal, joint flashing, clearances, penetrations and transitions are addressed as part of the exterior system.
Required joints are professionally sealed. Primed siding projects can then receive a high-quality exterior paint system for the final finish.
The completed exterior is reviewed for workmanship, details and overall appearance.
The result is a complete siding system designed around durability, moisture management and curb appeal.
New siding can completely change the appearance of a home.
James Hardie offers several profiles that allow homeowners to create everything from traditional Northwest exteriors to clean contemporary designs.
Horizontal lap siding remains one of the most popular options for Oregon homes. Cedarmill texture provides the appearance of traditional wood grain, while Smooth siding creates a cleaner architectural look.
Vertical Board and Batten can create a modern farmhouse appearance or serve as an accent on gables and architectural sections.
Straight Edge and Staggered Edge Shake can add texture and character to gables, entry areas and other focal points.
Architectural panels provide additional design possibilities for homeowners looking for a more contemporary exterior.
Not sure which style works best for your home?
We can help you compare siding profiles, trim details and exterior design options during the estimating process.
Tualatin homeowners can choose between primed James Hardie siding that is painted after installation and James Hardie’s factory-finished ColorPlus® Technology.
Both can be excellent choices.
Primed siding provides extensive flexibility when selecting custom exterior paint colors. We frequently pair primed James Hardie siding with premium Sherwin-Williams exterior coatings.
ColorPlus siding provides a factory-applied finish with consistent color and eliminates the need to field-paint the siding itself.
The better choice depends on your preferred colors, exterior design, maintenance goals and project specifications.
Choosing the siding itself is only one part of the decision.

We frequently recommend James Hardie fiber cement siding because of its durability, design options and resistance to common problems such as rot and pest damage. The siding itself is only one component, however. Proper flashing, WRB installation, drainage and clearances are equally important for a long-lasting exterior system.
Rot, swelling, cracking, warping, loose boards, repeated paint failure and deterioration around windows are common warning signs. An exterior evaluation can help determine whether the problem is isolated or whether complete siding replacement should be considered.
Yes. Hidden deterioration is sometimes discovered after existing siding is removed. We can evaluate damaged areas and complete necessary rot repairs as part of a larger siding replacement project before installing the new exterior system.
James Hardie fiber cement siding is resistant to damage from moisture and rot, making it a strong siding option for Pacific Northwest homes when installed as part of a properly detailed wall assembly.
Depending on the project, the wall assembly can include sheathing, a weather-resistant barrier, flashing membranes, window and door flashing, penetration details and other water-management components. These hidden details are extremely important to the performance of the finished exterior.
Yes. We replace many existing siding materials, including engineered wood, T1-11, cedar, wood lap siding, vinyl, aluminum, stucco, EIFS and older fiber cement systems.
Our primary focus is complete siding replacement and larger exterior remodeling projects, particularly homes where aging siding, moisture intrusion or hidden deterioration requires a comprehensive solution.
Project length depends on the size and complexity of the home, number of stories, existing siding layers, weather, architectural details and whether hidden damage is discovered after demolition. We discuss the expected project scope and timeline before construction begins.
If your siding is deteriorating, leaking, rotting or simply reaching the end of its useful life, don’t cover up the symptoms.
