Why Factory Finish Beats Field Paint (Usually)
Paint applied in a factory goes on at controlled temperature and humidity, in even coats, onto perfectly prepared board — conditions no Seattle-area job site can promise. The result carries a 15-year finish warranty, resists UV fade, and arrives ready to install, which also shortens your project by the length of a paint phase. And because the palette is consistent and documented, ColorPlus simplifies HOA and design-review approvals — a real advantage in communities like Redmond Ridge and the Issaquah Highlands.
The honest exception: custom colors. If the house needs a color outside the ColorPlus palette, our own paint crew field-finishes Hardie properly — primed, sprayed and back-rolled, on the right schedule.
The Details That Matter
ColorPlus boards get cut on site like any siding, and every cut edge gets touched up with matched ColorPlus touch-up — a small discipline that protects the finish warranty and the look. Trim, corners, and accessories come finished in the same system, so the whole elevation ages at one rate.

ColorPlus Questions
How long does the color last?
The finish carries a 15-year warranty against peeling, cracking, and chipping, and fade resistance is engineered in. Field paint on the same board would want repainting on a much shorter cycle.
Can it be repainted later?
Yes — decades from now, ColorPlus repaints like any well-prepared surface. You're deferring the paint cycle, not forfeiting it.
Is the palette limiting?
It's broad and covers the great majority of Northwest homes and HOA standards. When it doesn't, we field-finish in custom color.
Does it cost more?
More than bare board, less than bare board plus a quality paint job — and the 15-year finish warranty tilts the math further. We'll show you both numbers.
Can you match existing ColorPlus on an addition or repair?
Usually, yes. ColorPlus colors are cataloged, so if the original color is known we can order matching board. Where the original has weathered or the color is discontinued, we will show you the closest match before committing.
Does ColorPlus need any maintenance?
Very little — an annual rinse to clear pollen, dust and organic growth is the whole routine in this climate. No sanding, no priming, no repaint cycle for the life of the finish warranty.
