Elite Hail Protection
James Hardie Siding Installer in Longmont
Authorized installation of Colorado’s most durable fiber cement siding. Engineered for our climate. Built to survive the storm.
Why Longmont Homeowners Choose James Hardie
Vinyl siding becomes brittle in Colorado winters and melts or cracks during hailstorms. As a specialized James Hardie siding installer in Longmont, we recommend fiber cement for its unmatched fire resistance and durability against impact.
Josh Brooks Construction and Renovation Inc. follows the strict Hardie Installation Standards to ensure your 30-year limited product warranty remains valid. We don’t just “slap it on”—we ensure every joint is flashed and every board is nailed to structural perfection.
Hardie Board Benefits:
- ✓ Non-Combustible: Won’t ignite or fuel a fire.
- ✓ Hail Resistant: Stands up to impact better than vinyl or wood.
- ✓ ColorPlus® Technology: Baked-on finish stays vibrant for decades.
- ✓ 30-Year Warranty: The best protection in the industry.

Verisk / Insurance Data
“James Hardie fiber cement is the only siding I recommend for Longmont homes. I’ve been installing it since 2014 and I’ve watched it take direct hail hits that would have destroyed vinyl or wood. The insurance discount alone can offset a significant part of the project cost — and in many storm cases it’s fully covered.”

BY THE NUMBERS
What Siding Replacement Does for Your Home
“I’ve been installing James Hardie and other siding products across Northern Colorado since 2014. In this climate — the UV exposure, the hail, the freeze-thaw cycles — the siding material you choose makes a real difference. Fiber cement consistently outperforms vinyl here. That’s not a sales pitch; it’s what I see job after job.”
