This wood composite siding home in Fort Collins was built in 1980, and had never been updated to something modern and beautiful—until the homeowners contacted Bellwether for James Hardie fiber cement lap siding.

The housing market boomed in 1980, but it wasn’t necessarily an era of high design. This home in Fort Collins, CO was finished with a traditional beige, wood composite siding—and the homeowners thought it needed a facelift.

James Hardie fiber cement siding is a high-quality, high-functioning siding product, but it is also just incredibly beautiful and our design teams love when homeowners opt for fiber cement. Built from cement and cellulose fibers in a factory-controlled setting, fiber cement siding boards are pressed and treated to mimic the gorgeous grain of natural wood. The final result is a luxurious siding plank that can be installed in a number of fashions. These homeowners opted for a lap siding pattern for a classic look that will stand the test of time—just like their siding product will last them a lifetime.

The homeowners selected Night Gray from the James Hardie Color Plus collections, with a James Hardie trim in Arctic White for high-contrast and curb appeal.

Selecting James Hardie fiber cement offers homeowners endless design options and colors with the more than 700 siding colors available in James Hardie’s color collections with Color Plus technology. This priming and shading process guarantees that, whatever color the homeowner chooses, it will remain rich for a lifetime, without peeling, chipping, cracking or fading, even in Colorado’s harsh weather elements.

These homeowners chose Night Gray for their Fort Collins, CO home, which immediately pulled it from the 80s into the modern age of high design. Now their home pops from the street, and when they drive up to it, they have the sense of coming home to a luxe retreat. The James Hardie trim in Arctic White ups the ante, creating a high-contrast effect and adding depth. The curb appeal on this upgraded home is iconic.
