Siding Replacement
Storm Damage Restoration
Siding Replacement
A siding replacement is a full exterior upgrade, not a patch job. Old materials come off, problem areas get addressed, and the new siding system is installed for long-term performance. Expect better curb appeal, fewer maintenance headaches, and stronger protection against Iowa weather.

If the issue is isolated, siding repair is often the right move.Repairs are focused on solving the real problem, not covering it up. The damaged panels get removed, the area gets inspected for moisture, and the fix is done in a way that blends cleanly with the existing siding. The goal is simple. Stop water intrusion and restore protection.

Is It Time for Siding Repair or Replacement?
In Des Moines, siding takes a beating from wind, hail, humidity, and freeze cycles. The trick is knowing when a repair is enough, and when the system is starting to fail.
Signs a Repair Is Usually Enough
Signs It Might Be Time to Replace
Signs It Might Be Time to Replace
- Damage is limited to one area, like a few cracked or loose panels.
- Hail marks are cosmetic, and panels are still tight and sealed.
- Moisture is not spreading, and trim around windows and doors is still solid.
- The siding still lies flat, with no widespread warping or buckling.
- The rest of the exterior is in good shape, and the problem has a clear cause.

- You keep repairing the same spots, or new issues show up every season.
- Multiple walls have damage, fading, waviness, or loose sections.
- You see soft wood, peeling paint, or staining around windows, corners, or trim.
- Siding is pulling away, swelling, or cracking in several areas.
- Indoor clues show up, like drafts, higher energy bills, or recurring musty smells.
The Part Most Homeowners Miss
Some siding looks fine from the driveway but fails at the seams, behind trim, or around windows where water gets in first. That is why a proper inspection matters.
During our siding inspection, we will show you what we see up close, explain what it means for your home, and give you clear pricing for repair versus replacement. If a repair is enough, we will tell you. If replacement is the smarter long-term move, we will explain why so you can decide with confidence.
Siding Materials We Install and Repair
Not all siding holds up the same in Iowa weather. The best choice depends on what matters most to you, low maintenance, impact resistance, cost, or a specific look. For replacement siding, we install James Hardie fiber cement, LP SmartSide, premium vinyl, and wood siding.
Fiber Cement (James Hardie)

Fiber Cement (James Hardie)
Fiber cement is a strong choice when you want a sharp look and long-term durability. It handles moisture better than wood and holds up well through tough seasons. We install James Hardie most often, and the install details matter.
Vinyl

Vinyl siding is a solid option when you want low upkeep and a more affordable upgrade. It resists moisture and comes in many styles and colors. Because vinyl expands and contracts, it has to be installed the right way to avoid waviness and loose panels.
Wood and Cedar
Fiber Cement (James Hardie)
Wood and Cedar
Wood and cedar give a warm, classic look that adds real character. The tradeoff is maintenance, since wood needs protection over time. Proper prep and water control are key to keeping it in good shape.
Accent Siding
Board and Batten
Accent Siding
Accent siding adds texture and depth where you want the home to stand out, like gables, dormers, and entry walls. Shakes give a more detailed, coastal or cottage look. Board and batten gives a clean, modern style with strong vertical lines.
Lap Siding
Board and Batten
Accent Siding
Lap siding is the classic horizontal look that fits most home styles. It creates clean lines, sheds water well, and works great for complete replacements. It is also one of the easiest styles to keep looking sharp over time.
Board and Batten

Board and Batten
Board and batten is a vertical style that gives the exterior a taller, bolder look. It is popular on modern, farmhouse, and transitional homes. It also works well as a full siding style or as an accent on sections of the home.
