Hardie plank siding contractors pass along 30 years of board coverage, plus a separate 15-year ColorPlus finish warranty. Coastal Windows & Exteriors, the only woman-owned James Hardie President’s Club winner in New England, has 7,000+ installations completed since 2011, serves 730+ towns across Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine, and holds James Hardie Elite Preferred status. We walk you through every page of your warranty documents before a single board goes up, so you know exactly what’s protected.
What Your Coverage Actually Includes
- Thirty years nonprorated: The substrate warranty runs a full 30 years with no sliding scale. Coverage stays whole from year one through year thirty.
- Fifteen years on finish: ColorPlus Technology carries separate protection against fading, chipping and peeling. Factory-applied color earns that coverage and field paint does not.
- Workmanship sits on top: We back our installation beyond what the manufacturer provides. Two layers of protection beat one every time.
- Certification guards the claim: Improper installation voids manufacturer coverage. Elite Preferred standing keeps your protection intact should a question arise.
- Coverage transfers at sale: The next owner inherits remaining warranty terms. That transfer strengthens your listing without costing you a dime.
- Direct manufacturer support: Elite Preferred contractors reach James Hardie without a middleman. Faster answers matter when a warranty question surfaces.
- Review terms at the estimate: Your free consultation is the moment to read coverage line by line. We hand you the documents and walk through them.
Matching Coverage to Your Priorities
- Top Recommendation: ColorPlus Technology installed by an Elite Preferred crew for warranty protection on board and finish.
- Best for Resale Planning: Full-system installation so transferable coverage carries maximum remaining term.
- Best for Total Protection: Siding paired with Hardie Trim so every component falls under one unified warranty story.
Curious what the paperwork promises? We’d rather explain it now than surprise you later. Straight answers cost nothing.
