Before the work · Know what to discuss
Siding decisions affect the whole exterior. A useful conversation covers the wall areas in scope, the look you want and how the work meets windows, doors, roof edges and gutters. Bring inspiration photos, but confirm the exact products in the proposal.
James Hardie, LP, Royal and Versetta Stone are different product families, not interchangeable specifications. Discuss the material, profile, color and trim that suit the project. A gallery image helps explain a look; it does not establish the product installed on your home.
Identify each wall or elevation included and any areas that remain. Ask how existing trim, openings and accessories will be handled. For a partial repair, discuss visible differences between existing and replacement material.
If windows, gutters or roofing are also planned, discuss the sequence before starting. Ask how concealed conditions found after removal will be documented and approved. Keep product selections and scope changes together for reference.
Questions
Still unsure? Call (847) 730-4026 — or send a request below and we’ll call you.
It can be. An inspection documents what we see; your insurer decides what is covered under your policy.
Sometimes. Older or discontinued colors and profiles can be hard to match; we’ll show you options and explain any differences before work starts.
Not always. Small damaged areas can sometimes be repaired; we’ll explain when that makes sense and when it doesn’t.
Send the property address and describe the affected walls. Photos taken safely from the ground can help show cracked panels, open joints, or other visible changes.
The scope should identify the wall areas, the proposed work, and the selected materials. Product and installation details should match the specific project.

Before the work · What to know
We install vinyl, James Hardie fiber cement and LP SmartSide. Think about the whole look: the siding style, trim, corners, around the windows, and where the siding meets brick or stone. Those details matter as much as the color.
These are three different products. They look different, need different upkeep, and install differently. We'll walk you through the trade-offs for your house, and your estimate will name the exact product, style, color and matching trim pieces.
Fixing one spot depends on finding a match for your siding. Old siding fades in the sun, so new pieces can look different next to it. If we're doing a bigger area, we'll explain how we handle corners, windows, outlets and where the new meets the old.
We can't always see what's under old siding until it comes off. Your estimate explains what we'll remove, how we'll check the wall underneath, and how we keep water out. Every product goes on following the manufacturer's installation instructions.
We'll try. It depends on identifying your siding, whether it's still made, and how much it's faded. We'll show you the match before you approve a repair.
Yes, it can be done. Your estimate will cover how the different materials meet and are installed.
Only if they're in your estimate. We'll make clear what happens to trim, lights and gutters that the siding work touches.
