Congratulations to First American Roofing & Siding, Inc. (firstamerican05), award recipient for Best Exterior Design featuring James Hardie’s Color of the Year – Evening Blue. 

Nestled amongst the rugged bluffs of western Wisconsin, this neo-Victorian home features a wraparound porch and a turret that spans all three stories of the home. The home originally featured painted wood siding, a material known for being both high-maintenance and prone to cracking, especially in Wisconsin, which sees warm, humid summers and bitterly cold winters. 

The homeowners opted to replace their wood lap siding with Hardie® Plank lap in Evening Blue, a colorful departure from the light brown that came before it. The serene blue, offset by bright white trim, stands out among the wooded setting of their neighborhood. The Hardie® fiber cement siding is Engineered for Climate® to help protect against extreme weather and resist damage from pests, such as the woodpeckers prevalent in the area. 

“We're proud to offer Hardie® products to our customers because James Hardie’s commitment to quality and durability aligns with our own mantra: 'Your Peace of Mind is our Family's Promise.' Delivering exceptional products and expert installation is a top priority for us — and James Hardie helps us uphold that standard," says Chelsey Kube, operations manager. 

It’s James Hardie’s #ExteriorDesignWeek! We’re recognizing trade pros for their exceptional exterior design work all month long – meet the other winners  in our blog and stay tuned for our final award announcement later this week!
