A Mid-Century Gem In Zionsville Gets A Full Exterior Home Makeover

A mid-century home in Zionsville with a full exterior makeover: James Hardie siding, Pella windows, and new black gutters

Nestled in a quiet Zionsville neighborhood filled with established homes, this single-story residence was ready for a fresh start. The homeowner loved the location—but not the look. The original siding had aged poorly, the trim was rotting, and the entire exterior lacked personality. They dreamed of a bold new style that would enhance curb appeal while updating every inch of the home’s exterior.

What they needed was more than a facelift. They needed a full-service team that could handle siding, windows, gutters, and design details, all in one cohesive project.

More Than Just Curb Appeal: A Complete Exterior Restoration

From the first consultation, our team worked closely with the homeowner to bring their vision to life. Using HOVER 360 technology, we created an interactive 3D model of their home, allowing them to visualize color combinations and design accents. With samples in hand and multiple design meetings, we fine-tuned every detail, from materials to trim colors, before construction even began.

The plan? Replace the failing siding and windows, install new gutters, restore damaged areas, and finish off with strategic accent choices that make the home stand out.

Despite the challenges, like limited street parking, tight workspace, and hazardous materials from previous installations, our crew stayed efficient and communicative throughout. We carefully removed old materials, corrected faulty sheathing, and ensured the structure was ready for high-performance products.

Quality Materials, Smart Design

This home’s transformation featured:

  • James Hardie 7” Lap Siding in Boothbay Blue for the primary exterior
  • James Hardie Shake Siding and trim in Mountain Sage to create standout accent areas
  • Black Pella Lifestyle Windows to elevate style and energy efficiency
  • New Black Gutters to complete the sharp, modern aesthetic

The combination of bold colors and durable materials brought a timeless yet unique look to the home, perfectly complementing its mid-century structure.

Compliments All Around

By the time the last piece of trim was nailed in place, the home looked completely reborn. Neighbors took notice, and the homeowner received countless compliments on the striking transformation. They were thrilled with the process, especially the consistent communication and professionalism of our team from start to finish.

“Absolutely love it, couldn’t be happier,” they shared. And that’s exactly what we aim for with every project.

From Tired to Timeless—Transform Your Exterior with JD Hostetter

This Zionsville project proves that a thoughtful, well-executed exterior update can breathe new life into an older home. With a design-forward approach, expert craftsmanship, and premium materials, we helped this homeowner turn frustration into pride.
