How long does a Hewitt siding install take?

Why factory ColorPlus instead of field-painted Hardie in Hewitt?
Three reasons. (1) ColorPlus factory finish carries a 15-year paint warranty — field-applied paint typically lasts 5-7 years in Central Texas UV. (2) ColorPlus eliminates the cost and disruption of repainting the home twice over the 30-year siding life. (3) Factory-baked finish bonds to the cement-fiber substrate more durably than field paint. ColorPlus typically adds 10-15% to the project cost but pays back through eliminated repainting.
