Looking for Allied Siding & Windows? Welcome to Allied Exteriors. Our name has changed, but the service you’ve trusted since 1988 hasn’t.
If your siding is cracked, rotting, or simply showing its age, fiber cement siding is one of the most durable replacement options available. At Allied Exteriors, we install James Hardie® products exclusively because we've found they provide the best long-term performance for Texas homeowners.
Your siding doesn't have to be falling off your house before it's time to replace it. Sometimes the signs are obvious, like rotting boards or cracked panels. Other times, the problems are less noticeable, such as moisture getting behind the siding or repeated maintenance that never seems to solve the issue. Understanding what to look for can help you decide whether replacement is the right next step.
Your siding should keep moisture out and stand up to the elements. If it's cracked, warped, or deteriorating, it may no longer be doing its job.
If maintaining your siding feels like a never-ending project, replacement may be a better long-term investment than continuing to patch the same problems.
Some siding problems go deeper than what you can see. We'll help you identify the warning signs and explain whether replacement is the right next step before any work begins.
Installing fiber cement siding isn't just about the product you choose. It's about making sure it's installed correctly. That's why Allied specializes exclusively in James Hardie siding and follows the manufacturer's installation requirements from start to finish.
We install James Hardie siding exclusively, so our crews know the product inside and out.
Our team has earned James Hardie's highest contractor distinctions through consistent installation quality.
We follow James Hardie's installation requirements to help maximize performance and protect your warranty.

Replacing your siding is a major investment, and it's normal to have questions. Here are answers to the questions we hear most often from Texas homeowners considering James Hardie siding.
James Hardie costs more than vinyl siding upfront, but many homeowners choose it for its durability, low maintenance, and performance in the Texas climate. Whether it's worth the investment depends on how long you plan to stay in your home, your budget, and your long-term goals.
When installed according to manufacturer requirements and properly maintained, James Hardie siding is designed to provide decades of performance. It also includes one of the industry's strongest manufacturer warranties, making it a popular choice for homeowners looking for a long-term solution.
Neither product is right for every homeowner. Vinyl usually has a lower upfront cost, while James Hardie offers greater durability, impact resistance, and design flexibility. We compare both materials openly so you can decide which fits your home and budget.
