James Hardie Dream and Magnolia Collection
When it comes to enhancing your home’s curb appeal, few projects make as significant of an impact as siding replacement. In some cases, this transformation is not planned and a response to Mother Nature. Recently, we undertook on another transformation of a home in Goodrich, Michigan hit by hail. Calling for replacing outdated vinyl siding with stunning James Hardie Dream Collection in Chiseled Green complemented by Magnolia Homes Fern Green Shake Siding. The results have not only elevated the aesthetic but also improved the overall durability of the home.
Why James Hardie Siding
The homeowners wanted to upgrade their home, with the intention of it being their forever home. James Hardie siding fits this request for several reasons. Known for its resilience and low maintenance, this fiber cement material withstands harsh weather conditions while resisting fading and damage. The Dream line offers up to 2000 color options to fit anyone style.
The Fresh Contract: Arctic White Trim
To create a striking contrast, opting for Arctic White trim in between the Shake Siding and Lap Siding. This choice not only enhances the visual appeal, but also highlights the home. The clean lines of the trim provide a polished finish that complements the siding perfectly. Together, they create a clean and fresh look that stands in the neighborhood.
Hidden Vented Soffits: Function Meets Aesthetics
Often an overlooked detail in siding projects is the soffit. We upgraded this home to hidden vented soffits, which provides excellent ventilation while maintaining a sleek look. This feature not only helps in preventing moisture buildup in the attic, but also contributes to the overall modern aesthetic.
Adding a Classic Look with Fresh New Columns
We spent some time with this couple choosing options over the front porch. Ultimately they opted to update their post PCV. Which gives a maintenance free finish but the classic look of craftsman style columns.
New Fascia and Gutters: Completing the Look
To round out the siding transformation, we replaced the fascia and gutters. This was essential for both functionality and appearance. New fascia gives the roofline a fresh look, while new gutters ensure efficient water drainage, enhancing both the beauty and performance of the home.
