James Hardie Products UIR Installs in Grayson County

HardiePlank lap siding is the most-installed Hardie product in Grayson County — a traditional horizontal lap siding profile available in 6", 7.5", and 8.25" exposures with smooth or cedarmill (woodgrain) texture. HardiePlank in Grayson County is factory primed on four sides and field painted to the client's chosen color after installation. UIR paints HardiePlank throughout Grayson County using exterior latex paint systems appropriate for fiber cement — not the brush-and-roll approaches that leave lap marks on previous-generation wood siding.

HardiePanel and HardieTrim for board and batten applications, as covered in UIR's board and batten guide. The combination of HardiePanel vertical field panels and HardieTrim batten strips creates the board and batten appearance with Hardie's durability.

HardieShingle — Hardie's fiber cement siding product that replicates cedar shingle appearance for accent gables, dormers, or full-house cottage-style applications. UIR installs HardieShingle throughout Grayson County as an accent treatment or full exterior application.
