Why Replace Siding and Windows Together?
Doing both at the same time saves labor costs, improves insulation, and ensures a unified design. In Chicago’s climate, it’s a smart way to weatherproof your home.
Step 1: Inspect Your Home’s Exterior
Look for peeling paint, warped siding, or drafty windows. Rising energy bills are also a red flag.
Step 2: Choose Energy-Efficient Materials
- Vinyl siding: Affordable and weather-resistant
- Fiber cement siding: Strong and fire-resistant
- Engineered wood siding: Offers a natural look with durability
- Energy Star windows: Reduce drafts and energy loss
Step 3: Prepare for the Installation
Professional crews typically:
- Remove old siding and windows
- Repair any rotted or damaged framing
- Apply insulation or house wrap
Step 4: Install New Siding and Windows
- Windows are fitted and sealed first
- Siding panels are installed for weather protection
- Caulking and trim are applied for a polished finish
Step 5: Post-Installation Inspection
Ensure everything is sealed properly. Check warranties on siding and windows to secure your investment.

- Boost curb appeal instantly
- Cut energy bills by up to 20%
