Siding Replacement

Written by Michael Guthrie

Protect Your Home with the Industry’s Best Siding

Your home’s siding does more than create curb appeal—it serves as your home’s armor against the elements. At Champion Forest Exteriors, we believe in using only the most reliable, longest-lasting siding material available, and that’s HardiePlank® fiber cement siding. After decades of hands-on experience, we’ve seen how well HardiePlank performs in Houston’s intense climate—and that’s why it’s the only siding we install.

Why We Only Use HardiePlank® Siding

There are many siding materials on the market—vinyl, wood, engineered wood, and more. But none offer the full spectrum of performance, durability, and beauty that James Hardie® siding delivers. Here’s why we trust it exclusively:

Superior Durability: HardiePlank® is engineered to withstand Houston’s heat, humidity, heavy rains, and even hurricanes. It won’t rot, warp, or melt like vinyl, and it’s not vulnerable to termites like wood.

Beautiful, Long-Lasting Appearance: With baked-on ColorPlus® Technology, the color resists fading far longer than painted wood or vinyl. It looks fresh for decades with minimal maintenance.

Fire and Pest Resistance: Fiber cement siding is non-combustible, unlike vinyl or wood. It also resists termites and carpenter ants.

Better Warranty and Value: HardiePlank comes with a 30-year, non-prorated warranty—one of the strongest in the industry. Cheaper materials often have shorter warranties and higher replacement costs in the long run.

Designed for Our Climate: The HardieZone® System means your siding is formulated for our specific weather conditions, unlike generic siding brands.

At the end of the day, it’s simple: we install HardiePlank because it lasts, protects, and looks better than anything else.

The Benefits of Replacing Your Siding with HardiePlank®

Serious Curb Appeal That Lasts

HardiePlank® siding offers a classic, high-end appearance that doesn’t fade or degrade like vinyl or wood. Choose from a wide range of timeless styles and colors that pair beautifully with all architectural styles—from traditional brick homes to modern ranch layouts.
Unlike other products that begin to look worn within a few years, HardiePlank’s fiber cement composition holds up beautifully for decades.

Energy Efficiency That Lowers Your Bills

When installed with proper house wrap and flashing, HardiePlank siding dramatically improves your home’s energy efficiency. It creates a tighter, more weather-resistant envelope that keeps hot air out and cool air in—something every Houston homeowner can appreciate during the long summer months.

The Best Return on Investment

Siding replacement with fiber cement siding consistently ranks among the top home improvement projects for resale value. It not only beautifies your home but also signals quality and durability to future buyers, giving you a competitive edge if you ever decide to sell.

How to Know It’s Time for Siding Replacement

If your home’s exterior is showing signs of wear, damage, or age, don’t wait until you’re dealing with costly repairs. Look out for these clear indicators that it’s time to replace your siding:

Cracking, warping, or swelling on siding panels

Faded color or peeling paint that doesn’t hold

Moisture damage or mold near seams and joints

Higher utility bills due to poor insulation

Pest infestations or woodpecker activity

Obvious rot or softness in existing siding

HardiePlank siding solves all of these problems—and prevents them from coming back.

Why We Don’t Use Vinyl or Engineered Wood

Other siding companies may offer vinyl or engineered wood to reduce costs—but we’ve seen firsthand how these materials fail in Houston’s climate:

Vinyl siding warps and melts in Texas heat. It also becomes brittle over time and is highly vulnerable to impact damage (think hail, lawnmowers, or even kids’ toys).

Engineered wood may seem durable at first, but moisture and humidity can cause swelling and rot if not meticulously maintained.

Both vinyl and engineered wood typically come with shorter warranties and require more frequent repairs or replacement.

That’s why we’ve chosen to focus exclusively on James Hardie products. Our reputation matters—and we only install materials we can stand behind 100%.
