Rotting Siding Replaced with James Hardie Planks in Snohomish

This Snohomish siding installation project was a complete transformation—both visually and structurally. The homeowners were concerned about visible rot, water intrusion, and an outdated exterior that no longer reflected their pride in the home.

With a $35K budget and a three-week timeframe, we stripped the house down to the sheathing and rebuilt it with precision. James Hardie lap siding were chosen for their clean look and resistance to moisture and rot, paired with upgraded waterproofing and flashing throughout. We anticipated hidden damage—and found some—but planned ahead to address it efficiently.

The result is a sharp, modern exterior built to withstand the Pacific Northwest climate. More than just a fresh look, the home is now sealed, protected, and low-maintenance for years to come. The homeowners were genuinely thrilled with the outcome, saying it finally feels like the home they envisioned. Projects like this remind us how much smart materials and thoughtful planning can do.
