Exterior Painting for a Custom James Hardie® Home in Coastal Oaks at Nocatee
A New Leaf Painting Contractors recently completed this exterior house painting project in Coastal Oaks at Nocatee, FL 32081. This large custom home features an elegant coastal design, James Hardie® lap siding, detailed trim, and multiple architectural elements that make preparation and a consistent finished appearance especially important.
For this project, our team prepared and repainted the exterior using Sherwin-Williams® Emerald® Exterior, giving the Hardie siding and painted exterior surfaces a clean, refreshed finish while maintaining the character of the home’s original architecture.

Exterior Painting a Custom Hardie Siding Home
Large custom homes like this require more than simply applying a new coat of paint. Multiple elevations, lap siding, trim transitions, soffits, fascia, doors, and architectural details all have to come together as one finished exterior.
Our exterior house painting process begins with evaluating and preparing the surfaces included in the project. Proper preparation is particularly important when repainting James Hardie lap siding, where the condition of the existing coating, joints, caulking, trim transitions, and surrounding components can all affect the finished result.
Once preparation was completed, the exterior was repainted with Sherwin-Williams Emerald Exterior, a premium exterior coating selected for this project.
James Hardie Siding & Northeast Florida Homes
James Hardie siding is found on many newer and custom homes throughout Nocatee and St. Johns County, including communities such as Coastal Oaks.
Although fiber-cement siding is durable, the painted finish is still exposed to Northeast Florida’s intense sunlight, heat, humidity, rain, and changing weather conditions. Maintaining the coating system and addressing preparation needs before repainting helps protect the siding while preserving the clean architectural lines these homes are known for.
Homeowners considering repainting can learn more in our guide to painting James Hardie siding in Nocatee.
A Finished Exterior That Fits the Home
The goal on a home like this isn’t to make the paint itself the focal point. It’s to create a clean, consistent exterior where the Hardie lap siding, trim, rooflines, and architectural details work together.
The three views of this completed Coastal Oaks home show the scale of the property and the finished appearance from different elevations.
