FAQ
James Hardie Siding in Cotati — FAQ
Fiber cement over a detailed drainage plane. Moisture management is the controlling concern in Cotati's mild, damp-season North Bay climate, and fiber cement handles it with low maintenance.
Cotati's flat, settled setting away from the foothills keeps wildfire risk low, so fire hardening is rarely the priority here. Moisture-managed durability is the real focus.

Yes. We match the older proportions and detailing of plaza-area homes while bringing the wall assembly up to a modern, moisture-managed standard, planning for substrate surprises.
