Your MacGregor Hardie Plank Repair Crew
Reveal matched board for board — that is the short version of how JM Painting approaches Hardie plank repair, and it does not change between the MacGregor area of Houston and anywhere else we work. What does change is the house: fibre cement is common on newer subdivisions across this area, and cracked boards are usually impact damage rather than product failure, so the scope gets set on site.
Our Hardie Plank Repair scope in MacGregor
- New plank set to the existing exposure and reveal
- Fasteners placed to spec and joints flashed
- Patch primed and painted to blend
- Damaged boards cut out without disturbing the courses above
- Weather barrier inspected and repaired where exposed
Weather sets the rhythm of this work along the Gulf Coast, and MacGregor is no exception: humidity stretches dry times, summer storms interrupt exterior schedules, and a crew that plans around both finishes on time. Fibre cement is common on newer subdivisions across this area, and cracked boards are usually impact damage rather than product failure.
Here is the order of operations in MacGregor: we look at the work in person, price it in writing, book a start date you agree to, do the job, and walk your MacGregor project with you at the end. No stage gets skipped and nothing gets added without your say.
