The Lorne Project
- Full renovation
- Elevated character
- Performance upgrade
This project was a full exterior renovation completed through a collaborative design process with the homeowners. Using Hardie Plank fiber cement siding and Hardie Trimboard, enhanced with custom curved trim details, added polyisocyanurate exterior insulation, and finished with aluminum soffit, fascia, and rainware, the home received a durable, refined exterior that preserved its original character while significantly improving performance and long-term value.
How it was Before
- Aging siding
- Cracked vinyl
- Underperforming envelope
Before construction, the home was clad in aging, cracked vinyl siding that lacked durability, visual refinement, and thermal performance. The exterior had reached the end of its service life and no longer reflected the quality or character the homeowners wanted for their home.
The Outcome
- Improved efficiency
- Refined detailing
- Thrilled homeowners
The finished exterior features crisp Hardie cladding, carefully executed custom trim details, and a continuous layer of added insulation that improves comfort and energy efficiency. Completed with low-maintenance aluminum rainware, integrated leaf guards, and heating cables for winter performance, the renovation delivered a dramatic upgrade in appearance, durability, and functionality — with homeowners who were extremely satisfied from start to finish.
