If your Bonner Springs home went up in the 1970s like most houses in town, the siding on it is probably original, patched a few times, or hiding a second layer underneath. Fairway Exteriors is the siding contractor Bonner Springs homeowners call when they want that fixed once and for all.
Siding out here takes more punishment than people expect. Here’s what we see on homes between the Kaw and K-7.

You probably don’t need a pro to spot these. Walk around the house and look for:
If you checked two or more, it’s time for a real look behind the boards.
Half the homes in Bonner Springs were built before 1978, and many were sided with low-density hardboard that rots from the bottom up. Once it goes spongy, patching just buys a season.
Older homes also need lead-safe demo, and about 90% of vinyl-sided homes we open up have another layer of siding underneath. We price both upfront, so you never get a surprise change order on day two.
Everything we install is James Hardie fiber cement, done by our own trained crews.
We tear off old vinyl, wood, or hardboard and re-side the whole house in James Hardie. Most Bonner Springs homes were built around 1976, so the original siding is often past saving. One project, one crew, and a finished look that lasts.
The classic horizontal look that suits Bonner Springs ranch homes. Choose Hardie’s factory-baked color, which resists fading on sunny south and west walls. Or go primed and paint it any color you like.
A modern farmhouse style that fits rural lots and newer builds. It also works well mixed with lap siding on gables and entries. We’ll show you both options in a 3D rendering of your home.
Great for accent gables or a full Craftsman look. It’s a natural fit for the older homes around Lake of the Forest. You get the charm of cedar shingles without the rot, splitting or woodpecker damage.
Wood trim is usually the first thing to rot around windows and doors. We replace it with Hardie trim that holds paint and won’t soften. Add soffit, fascia, and gutters for a complete, matching exterior.
Old siding often hides soft sheathing, missing flashing, or torn house wrap. We fix it before new siding goes up and send you photos first. Most homes need $1,000 to $1,500 in rot repair, not whole walls.
About 90% of vinyl-sided homes we open have another layer underneath. Stucco takes even more labor to remove. We price both upfront, so there’s no change order on day two.
Detached garages and shops are common on Bonner Springs lots, and their siding often rots first. We can re-side them in the same product and color as your house. Everything ends up looking like one project.

Celebrate
We walk the finished house with you, knock out any punch list items, and sweep the yard with magnets for stray nails. Then enjoy a home built to handle the next hail season. Every install is backed by our lifetime workmanship warranty.
Most James Hardie projects we install land between $14 and $20 per square foot. About 85% of our jobs fall in that range.
Rough example: The average Bonner Springs home is about 1,700 sq ft. Add an attached garage and 10% for waste, and you’re near 2,200 sq ft of siding. Siding and trim at that size runs roughly $31,000 to $37,000. Your walkthrough gives you the real number.
We offer 18 months of no interest financing. See our full James Hardie siding pricing breakdown or read how much Hardie board siding costs.
After a storm, adjusters often approve only the side that took the hit. If your siding color or profile is discontinued, that new wall won’t match the rest of the house.
Pull your policy and look for “matching” coverage before you agree to a partial repair. We’ll tell you honestly whether a patch will blend or whether full replacement makes more sense.

We’ll answer all seven in your first meeting.
New siding is the easiest time to fix the trim and flashing around openings. Many Bonner Springs homeowners pair it with replacement windows, a new ProVia front or patio door, or a new deck out back.

Fiber cement siding like James Hardie handles hail, wind, sun, and freeze-thaw cycles better than vinyl or hardboard. It won’t rot, melt, or feed woodpeckers, and the factory color resists fading.
For most homeowners planning to stay put, yes. It outlasts vinyl, skips the constant repainting of wood, and adds curb appeal buyers notice.
Most homes take a few days to two weeks once we start, depending on size and repairs. You’ll get a day-by-day schedule before we begin and a video update every evening.
Usually, if the damage comes from a covered storm and exceeds your deductible. Many policies only pay for the damaged side, so check whether yours includes matching coverage.
We don’t recommend it. Covering old siding hides rot and moisture problems, and Hardie installs best on a flat, sound wall.
Spring through fall is ideal, but fiber cement can be installed in most weather. Booking early helps you beat the rush after spring hail season.
