James Hardie® Introduces Six New Colors For Your Home’s Siding

Published , By Brian Olson

james-hardie-siding-colorsWe all like options, and now, when it comes to your home’s siding color there’s even more to choose from. Six brand new colors have been added to the James Hardie® siding and trim color collection. The curated colors, created by the company’s color expert, are each rich and bold.
Because the new colors were created using James Hardie’s ColorPlus® Technology, which involves applying consistent coats of color and baking them on, your siding color will remain vibrant longer.
The collection of colors includes a range of four new gray hues, a rich brown and a deep blue. Let’s explore a few of the new colors that could soon clad your Midwest home:
Shades of Gray. Gray siding hues are the trendiest siding colors in the Chicago area, and nationally. It makes sense that James Hardie added four new hues from the gray family to the collection of colors. Now, you can opt for any shade from light to dark with Pearl Gray, Gray Slate, Aged Pewter and Night Gray. Here’s a closer look at the new range of grays.
Bold and brown. The new brown hue in the mix is lush and intense, without feeling gaudy. It’s called Rich Espresso and it bares resemblance to just that, a nice dark brew of coffee.
Striking as the sea. The sixth color added to the bunch has depth and beauty. Deep Ocean stands out as a lap siding or shingle siding option, especially with the bright Arctic White trim.
Selecting your siding color can be stressful, but it doesn’t have to be. Check out the complete list of curated colors and products available at Olson Windows, Doors, Siding and Roofing and start living a life rich with color.
