My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Paint or Stain?

12 years ago
Was paint or stain used on this hardi plank siding? Is the shake siding also hardi plank? If stain was used, what kind? Thanks

    No stain was used on the hardiplank. The siding comes primed and once installed it gets painted whatever color you would like. Yes, the shake is also a James Hardie product.
