But unlike vinyl, fiber cement is porous and requires a specific painting approach to prevent moisture penetration, peeling, and efflorescence. The process begins with a thorough inspection for cracks, popped nails, or loose boards — common issues in older Rochester homes with HardiePlank or similar siding. Power washing is done at lower pressure to avoid forcing water behind the panels, followed by hand-scrubbing any mildew that thrives in our shaded, damp neighborhoods. After drying, we caulk all butt joints, corners, and trim gaps with a flexible, paintable sealant designed for fiber cement’s slight movement. Priming is critical: we use a high-build, alkali-resistant primer that seals the porous surface and prevents the cement from sucking the finish coat dry. Two topcoats of 100% acrylic exterior paint are then applied, often by sprayer with back-rolling to ensure adhesion into the textured grain. For Rochester properties, this layered system stops the siding from absorbing moisture that can freeze and cause delamination — a failure mode specific to fiber cement in cold climates. Why does this matter locally? Rochester’s older homes — many with fiber cement installed in the 1990s and 2000s as a replacement for wood — often show faded color, chalking, and peeling at the laps. The city’s high humidity and frequent rain (over 30 inches per year) accelerate paint breakdown on cementitious surfaces. A proper fiber cement paint job also protects against the alkaline salts that can bleed through and create white, crusty stains. For homes in the 19th Ward or near the Genesee River, where wind-driven moisture is common, we pay extra attention to the bottom edges of each panel and the areas around window trim. Painting fiber cement is not like painting wood or vinyl — it demands specific primers, longer drying times, and careful scheduling around Rochester’s weather windows. We only start when temperatures stay above 50°F and no rain is forecast for 48 hours, which in spring and fall means watching the forecast closely. The result is a finish that can last 10–12 years without peeling, even through lake-effect snow and summer downpours. ## Areas We Cover in Rochester We provide fiber cement siding painting throughout Rochester, including the 19th Ward, ABC Streets Neighborhood, Arnett, Barnard, Beechwood, and Brown Square. Our crews also work in neighborhoods near local landmarks such as the Seneca Park Zoo (home to the African Black-footed Penguin, African Elephant, African Spurred Tortoise, and Amar Tiger exhibits), Highland Park, and the University of Rochester campus. Whether your property is in the South Wedge, Maplewood, or near Cobbs Hill, we travel to all city neighborhoods and surrounding suburbs. ## What to Expect - A pre-job walkthrough to identify any damaged siding that needs repair before painting. - Low-pressure washing and hand-cleaning specific to fiber cement’s porous surface. - Caulking of all joints and gaps with a fiber-cement-grade sealant. - Application of a dedicated alkali-resistant primer, followed by two coats of 100% acrylic paint. - Final inspection of laps, corners, and trim for complete coverage. - Cleanup of any overspray or drips from windows and landscaping.
