Hardie® ColorPlus® Siding in Raleigh, NC

What Is Hardie® ColorPlus® Siding?

Pre-Finished Siding Built for Long-Term Performance

Hardie® ColorPlus® siding is a pre-finished fiber cement siding option designed to provide long-lasting color and reduced maintenance for homeowners. Instead of being painted after installation, each board is coated and cured in a controlled factory environment, resulting in a consistent, durable finish.

  • Consistent, factory-applied color
  • No need for post-installation painting
  • Reduced maintenance over time
  • Clean, efficient installation process

At Robert Gordon Services, we install James Hardie® ColorPlus® siding for homeowners throughout Raleigh, Cary, Durham, Apex, North Raleigh, and the greater Research Triangle Park area. This system combines the strength of fiber cement with a baked-on finish that helps resist fading, chipping, and peeling over time.

Choosing Hardie Color Plus siding means your home’s exterior is ready from day one. There is no need for on-site painting, which can simplify the installation process and reduce long-term upkeep.

Amazing company!! His pricing was competitive and his quote very detailed. His workers showed up on time and were meticulous in their work. He kept in constant contact with us throughout the project. The issues that arise with any construction project were handled immediately and to our satisfaction. The James Hardie material they used was superior to anything else we reviewed. The pre-painted option was exactly what they offered. When done, they left their work areas spotless. We are so pleased with beautiful transformation of our home. I would recommend this company without reservation.

We'd been wanting to replace the old, crumbling masonite siding on our home for awhile, and Robert Gordon Services, Inc. did a professional job completing the project to our satisfaction. His prices were competitive. What I appreciated most was Robert's quick responsiveness; he was easy to talk to, easily reachable, and willing to accommodate needs that arose during the project. We've since received many compliments from neighbors as well! Thank you, Robert and team for a job well done! Much appreciated.

I can’t say enough amazing things about this painting company. I had a last-minute project that absolutely had to get done on a tight timeline, and they stepped in without hesitation. From the very first interaction, they were responsive, accommodating, and genuinely cared about helping me out of a stressful situation. They showed up promptly and got right to work, and it was clear from the start that they take a lot of pride in what they do. The attention to detail was outstanding—clean lines, smooth finishes, and a level of precision that really made the final result stand out. They didn’t cut corners, and they made sure everything was done the right way. Beyond the quality of their work, they were an absolute pleasure to deal with. Friendly, respectful, and professional throughout the entire process, they made what could have been a hectic experience feel easy and seamless. It’s rare to find a team that combines skill, reliability, and such a positive attitude. On top of all that, their pricing was more than fair, especially considering the last-minute nature of the job and the high-quality results they delivered. I truly felt like I got incredible value. If you’re looking for painters who are dependable, talented, and go above and beyond for their clients, I would recommend them without hesitation. I will definitely be using them again in the future!

I’m building a home at the beach but didn’t want to drive down there just to pick the color of the siding. Robert helped me greatly by directing me to several of the beautiful houses that he completed. He even agreed to meet with me to give me a list of the homes to look at. Very nice gentleman

Robert and his team are great! His team painted our home in the past and we just had them stain our deck. The deck was new a few years ago, but then life happened and we never got around to staining. His team did an amazing job cleaning and prepping the deck and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. Pricing has always been fair (more than fair actually) , his crew thorough, and Robert is very responsive.

Robert Gordon and his crew did an amazing job replacing our old cedar siding with new Hardie Plank. It was mesmerizing to watch the crew at work; they have a smooth and efficient approach when it comes to measuring and installing the planks. They also installed new window and door trim, which was painted beautifully by another member of Robert's team. I can't recommend Robert Gordon Services more highly. The communication, organization and professionalism are second to none.

We made the decision it was time to re-side our home and knew that we wanted Hardie plank. After interviewing 3 different companies recommended by Hardie, we chose to work with Robert Gordon, and we are very glad we did! Robert spent a lot of time with us: looking at the house, describing what we could expect of a Hardie plank install and taking about his services. His estimate was prompt AND extremely reasonable compared to the other estimates. His team, who are employees, not subs, worked long days in the cold, took their time to make sure things were done correctly and did a great job. Our home looks BEAUTIFUL! We highly recommend Robert Gordon and his team!

Robert and his team just completed re-siding with Hardie plank and painting our whole house and I could not be happier! 1) - Robert EMPLOYS his team - they are not subcontractors. That part by itself is amazing as I could tell the team took their time to do things well and correctly, regardless of the amount of time it took. 2) Amazingly, Robert was the cheaper quote I received after calling several well-known siding contractors in the area. Robert is clear, communicative, budget-aware, and the work is QUALITY. Don't hesitate to give him a call!

WOW! After getting many quotes from many different companies, we decided to move forward with Robert and his team for re-siding our home--and boy, are we glad we did! Robert was friendly, informative, and reasonably priced. His team was FANTASTIC. Carlos and his team take great pride in their work, and Hector's painting is impeccable. I can't say enough positive things about Robert Gordon Services! I would hire them again in a heartbeat!

Benefits of Hardie® ColorPlus® Siding

A Practical Choice for Raleigh Homes

HardieColor Plus siding offers a combination of durability, efficiency, and long-term value, making it a strong option for homes throughout the Triangle including Raleigh, Cary, Durham, Apex, and North Raleigh.

Key Benefits

  • Long-Lasting Color: Factory-applied finish designed to resist fading

  • Cleaner Process: No paint drips or overspray during installation

Homeowners also benefit from access to a curated selection of colors through the James Hardie® ColorPlus® color chart, making it easier to choose a look that complements their home.

The Science Behind the Finish

Why Factory-Applied Color Outperforms On-Site Painting

One of the primary reasons we recommend James Hardie® ColorPlus® siding to Raleigh homeowners is the “baked-on” application process. Unlike traditional siding that is painted in the open air, where dust, humidity, and temperature fluctuations can affect the bond, ColorPlus® Technology is applied in a controlled factory environment.

Multiple coats of finish are applied to the fiber cement and then cured in a large oven. This creates a much stronger bond that is resistant to the intense UV rays we experience in the Triangle. This process is why the Hardie® ColorPlus® warranty can offer such long-term peace of mind; the finish is literally part of the board, not just sitting on top of it. This results in a vibrant, uniform look that won’t peel or chip, even after years of exposure to the North Carolina sun.

Hardie® ColorPlus® Siding FAQ

Common Questions About Pre-Finished Siding

It is a fiber cement siding product that comes pre-painted with a factory-applied finish designed for durability and consistency.

Unlike traditional siding that is painted after installation, this product is pre-finished, reducing maintenance and improving color consistency.

It typically requires less frequent repainting compared to standard exterior paint, thanks to its factory-applied finish.

The finish is backed by a limited warranty that covers issues like peeling, cracking, and chipping under normal conditions.
