RusticSeriesby Woodtone
Mason’s Mill & Lumber now carries RusticSeries™ by Woodtone — the warmth of stained wood, without the upkeep. Backed by a 30-year coating warranty on durable James Hardie® fiber cement.
What Is RusticSeries™?
RusticSeries™ is a factory-applied, two-tone wood-grain finish made by Woodtone that’s coated onto fiber cement or engineered-wood lap siding to replicate the look of hand-stained natural wood. Woodtone doesn’t manufacture the underlying board itself — it’s a finishing specialist that applies its proprietary coating to substrates from James Hardie®, Allura®, and LP SmartSide®, with James Hardie® fiber cement being the substrate Mason’s Mill offers.
That two-step process — a durable fiber cement core plus a factory-baked two-tone topcoat — is what separates RusticSeries™ from a standard solid-color siding paint job. The coating is applied and cured under controlled factory conditions, so color and grain pattern are consistent board to board, and every plank carries a 30-year coating warranty on top of James Hardie’s separate substrate warranty.

Solid Hardwood Tambour Panels
Tambour panels are solid hardwood slat panels mounted on a flexible backing, which lets a single panel wrap curves, columns, and outside corners that rigid paneling cannot reach. White River mills its tambour in Fayetteville, Arkansas from North American hardwoods and ships it unfinished, ready for any paint or stain. It is the most specified architectural wall panel in the White River catalog - used on kitchen island waterfalls, curved reception desks, cabinetry faces, and full feature walls.
Companion product: Solid Wood Paneling (SWP) is tongue-and-groove hardwood paneling, 11/16 in. thick, and every SWP profile corresponds directly to a tambour style. Run SWP on the flat walls and tambour on the curves in the same room - same profile, same species, same finish, no visible transition.

Why Choose RusticSeries™ for Your Next Project?
Real wood siding looks great on day one, but it needs re-staining every few years, and it’s vulnerable to moisture, insects, and UV fading. RusticSeries™ solves that with a factory-cured finish on a fire-resistant fiber cement core.
30-year coating warranty — plus James Hardie’s® own fiber cement substrate warranty
Two-tone factory finish — consistent color and grain from board to board, no field painting or staining required
Fire-resistant core — fiber cement doesn’t burn, warp, or attract wood-boring insects the way natural wood can
Low maintenance — no recoating cycle; RusticSeries™ is designed to hold its finish for decades
Coordinating trim & caulking — every RusticSeries™ color ships with a matched solid-color trim recommendation for a finished, intentional look

Frequently Asked Questions
Not exactly — RusticSeries™ is a two-tone coating system made by Woodtone, a finishing specialist, and factory-applied onto James Hardie® fiber cement lap siding (Woodtone also offers it on Allura® fiber cement and LP SmartSide®). Mason's Mill stocks the James Hardie® fiber cement version.
ColorPlus® and TimberHue™ are James Hardie's in-house factory finishes. RusticSeries™ is a separate two-tone finish system from Woodtone, applied to the same James Hardie® fiber cement boards, offering a broader color range (18 total colors) with a distinct two-tone wood-grain look.
RusticSeries™ carries a 30-year coating warranty, in addition to the separate warranty on the James Hardie® fiber cement substrate itself.
Widths from 5.25" to 12", with exposures from 4" to 10.75", in standard 12-foot lengths.
Yes — order a $10 sample in any of the 8 colors we stock; the sample fee is credited toward your full order.
Very little. Because the two-tone finish is factory-applied and cured, RusticSeries™ doesn't require the recoating or re-staining that natural wood siding needs every few years — periodic washing is typically all that's needed.
The factory-applied finish is designed to resist fading better than field-applied paint or stain and is backed by a 30-year coating warranty, though like any exterior finish it can weather gradually over decades of sun exposure.
Yes — RusticSeries™ installs the same way as standard James Hardie® lap siding, making it suitable for new builds and for re-siding existing homes.
