The lines we install

  • CertainTeed
  • LP SmartSide

Every reason people call us about siding

Built around your home, not a catalog.

Tap any one — here’s what actually changes when the siding’s done right.

  • A whole new look from the curb

    Nothing changes how a house reads from the street like new siding. We help you pick a color and a profile that fit the home — clapboard, Dutch lap, or the deep grain of engineered wood.

  • Color that holds — no repainting

    On CertainTeed vinyl the color runs all the way through the panel, so there’s nothing to chip or peel. On LP SmartSide, the Diamond Kote finish is baked on at the factory and warranted no-fade for 30 years. Either way, you’re done painting.

  • Low-maintenance, for real

    A rinse with the hose now and then is about all good siding asks. No scraping, no repainting cycle, no chasing rot every spring.

  • Tougher than what’s on there now

    LP SmartSide is engineered wood, treated against moisture, rot, and insects, and it stands up to impact — a stray ball, a ladder bump — where thin old vinyl cracks. Built for freeze-thaw and Chicago weather.

  • A tighter, warmer wall

    We can add insulated siding or foam board under the panels where it makes sense — more R-value, fewer drafts. We’ll tell you straight whether it’s worth it for your home.

  • Backed in writing

    CertainTeed’s Lifetime Limited warranty with PermaColor fade protection, LP’s 30-year Diamond Kote finish on a 50-year board, and 5-year Excel labor on the install. It’s in the contract.

THE EXCEL PROMISE

How we do business.

Three things we hold to on every job — the reasons families call us back and send their neighbors.

  1. Same owner, same crews

    Chris still runs the company he started, and the same installers come back job after job. You're never handing your house to a stranger.

  2. Education over selling

    We walk you through the options and leave a written proposal — not a high-pressure pitch. You decide on your own time.

  3. The care we'd want at home

    Most of our work is repeat and referral — because every job gets the same care and craftsmanship we'd want in our own homes.

    LP SmartSide’s factory finish is warranted no-fade for 30 years, on a 50-year engineered-wood substrate.

  • 5 yr

    Excel labor warranty

    On every siding job we install. The manufacturer stands behind the product; we stand behind the work.

Siding — common questions

What siding do you install?

Our primary line is CertainTeed Monogram premium vinyl, with CertainTeed Restoration Classic as the value option and LP SmartSide engineered wood with the Diamond Kote finish for a premium wood look. We do not install James Hardie or any fiber cement.

Is Diamond Kote a metal siding?

No. Diamond Kote is a factory-applied finish on LP SmartSide engineered wood — one product. The finish is baked on at the plant, not painted on-site, which is part of why it holds its color so well and carries a 30-year no-fade warranty.

How long does siding last?

With the products we install and a proper job, decades. CertainTeed vinyl carries a Lifetime Limited warranty; LP SmartSide with Diamond Kote carries a 30-year no-fade finish on a 50-year board. The specifics are written into your contract.

Do you do the trim, soffit, and fascia too?

Yes — all of it. We match the trim, soffit, and fascia to the siding so the whole exterior comes together clean, and we handle the gutters where they’re part of the job.

Will you replace bad sheathing if you find it?

We tell you before we cover anything up. Rotten or soft sheathing gets fixed — you see it first.

Will the same crew be on my job?

Yes. We send the same crews job after job — low turnover, same faces from start to finish.
