Project Overview
In Woodbury, homeowners often look for ways to refresh their homes while ensuring the new exterior can handle Minnesota’s demanding climate. For this family, the existing vinyl siding had begun to fade and lose its protective qualities. They wanted a siding solution that delivered lasting performance while elevating curb appeal with a natural, welcoming design. That’s why they turned to Craftsman’s Choice, Woodbury’s trusted James Hardie siding contractor.

Our team installed James Hardie lap siding in Mountain Sage, a timeless green tone that blends beautifully with the surrounding landscape. To add character and visual contrast, the siding was paired with Woodtone accents. These natural-looking panels bring warmth and texture to the exterior, softening the bold Mountain Sage color and giving the home a custom, high-end feel. Finished with crisp Arctic White trim, the architectural lines stand out, creating a balanced and polished design.

Beyond aesthetics, this remodel ensures long-lasting protection. James Hardie fiber cement siding is engineered to withstand Minnesota’s freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow, and summer humidity, making it the ideal choice for Woodbury homeowners. Combined with Woodtone accents, the result is an exterior that not only looks beautiful but also performs for decades with minimal upkeep.

The Result
By replacing faded vinyl with James Hardie Mountain Sage lap siding, Woodtone accents, and Arctic White trim, Craftsman’s Choice delivered a transformation that balances durability with inviting design. This Woodbury home now has timeless curb appeal built on materials engineered for Minnesota weather.
