Fiber cement siding installation — Tacoma & Puget Sound

Fiber Cement Siding Installation in Tacoma, Seattle & the South Sound.

Fiber cement is the safest choice for the most exposed walls in the South Sound. It is a mineral board, so water has nothing to swell or feed, and it does not burn. It is heavier and slower to hang than engineered wood, and cutting it needs proper dust control. James Hardie carries a 30-year non-prorated substrate warranty.

Fiber cement is the most durable mainstream siding in the Pacific Northwest — fire-resistant, dimensionally stable, and built to hold paint for decades. PrimeGuard Exteriors installs leading fiber cement brands in Tacoma, Seattle, Olympia, Gig Harbor, and across Puget Sound.

Why homeowners choose it

Why fiber cement is the premium siding choice in the PNW.

Class A fire rating.

Fiber cement is non-combustible and carries the highest fire-resistance rating, which is increasingly relevant for Pacific Northwest insurance and code requirements.

Holds paint for decades.

Factory-finish ColorPlus options carry 15-year finish warranties, and field-painted fiber cement holds paint two to three times longer than wood.

Pest and rot resistant.

Cement-based composition is unattractive to termites, woodpeckers, and carpenter ants — and won't swell or rot in wet PNW climates.

2-Year workmanship coverage.

Fiber cement carries strong limited warranties from the manufacturer. PrimeGuard backs the installation with our 2-Year Workmanship Warranty + Manufacturer Warranties*.

Properly installed with correct fastening and gapping, fiber cement performs reliably through Pacific Northwest freeze-thaw cycles for decades.
