"This company surpassed all my expectations. The crew that came out completed the project quickly and efficiently. They did a great job of cleaning up at the end of each day. Upon completion I checked the entire house and every joint and seam is perfect. I walked the property figuring I would find a few stray pieces of siding or aluminum, but never found a speck. I would highly recommend this company to family, friends and anyone who wants a quality job on their house."

"Power home replaced the siding, fascia, soffit, gutters, shutters, and door of my home. The crews they sent out for installation were professional and competent. I was concerned about how the gutters would turn out as well as the color combinations. I was always able to call in to the service department with questions and they helped resolve all of my concerns. After the job is complete, they send out a quality assurance person to make sure that the installation was done properly. They answer your questions at that time. The company offers a lifetime warranty, so they will send someone out to correct any problems you have. I was very pleased with the look of the home exterior colors, and the new door. My neighbors have complimented me on the work as well."

"I hired M construction for my siding and roofing needs and could not be happier. I do procurement/sourcing for a living (purchase services) and took this project extremely seriously due to our family’s budget. Needless to say they were one of 40 contractors i invited to the bidding- and they had zero issues with the challenge. Chuck provided a birds eye view, was willing to listen to my needs and allow me to choose the products i used, had been communicative through the project and his work crews did an excellent job completing my house. In the end I couldn’t be happier and recommend them to everyone. Through the project chuck provided pictures of the work, progress reports, and when i had issues with another contractor i had purchased windows from - worked around these issues and ensured the job was completed to my satisfaction. If you want honest, quality work from an experienced contractor not fluffing prices for materials who will make the project work effortless- choose M construction. You wont regret it"

"Shake Pros installed a new shake roof on our home and did an excellent job in every respect. The new roof looks fabulous and they were able to achieve that outstanding result on a challenging project with very steep angles, all the while protecting the landscaping. They also replaced the roof, siding and gutters on our son's home, again doing an incredible job. We highly recommend this firm! Their work, their response to questions or concerns and overall customer service and satisfaction are superb!"

FAQs for wood or fiber cement siding installation or complete replacement projects in Lake Forest, IL

Yes, removing your existing siding before installing new cedar siding is essential for a secure and long-lasting installation. It helps eliminate hazards like rot and pest infestations and ensures a smooth surface for the new siding. Leaving old siding in place can compromise the appearance and integrity of your new cedar siding. Engaging a licensed siding contractor will ensure proper removal and preparation.

To determine how much cedar siding you'll need, start by measuring the height and width of each exterior wall of your home to calculate the area. For gable ends, measure from the base to the peak. Add up all these areas and then add an extra 10% to account for waste and future repairs. This ensures you purchase enough siding without running short.

Cedar siding endures between 20 and 40 years if maintained correctly from the start. This lifespan is secured by performing regular inspections for cracks, fungus, and bubbling and by pursuing consistent cleaning, painting, or staining with an appropriate sealant. Engaging a professional for periodic inspections ensures that your siding remains resilient and visually appealing for decades.

Your cedar siding must be maintained every three to five years through a thorough restaining or repainting process to preserve its strength and appearance. Regular maintenance prevents damage and ensures that the wood remains in peak condition. For homeowners seeking a less demanding upkeep schedule, choosing vinyl or aluminum siding offers a more resilient alternative while still providing exceptional style.
