Siding Installation & Repair

Damaged siding is not just an appearance problem — it is your home's first defense against moisture, and it deserves to be treated that way.

Siding does more than make your home look finished. It is the primary barrier between your home's interior structure and the elements — wind, rain, ice, and the freeze-thaw cycles that are standard in northern Illinois. When siding gets cracked, dented, or torn away by a storm, that barrier is broken. Moisture gets behind the panels, works into the sheathing, and over time causes rot, mold, and insulation damage that costs far more to fix than the siding itself. Most homeowners in Schaumburg and the surrounding area do not realize how quickly compromised siding escalates into a larger problem — or that their insurance policy very likely covers the repair.

R&J General Contractor installs and repairs siding on homes throughout Schaumburg, Hoffman Estates, Elk Grove Village, Palatine, Bloomingdale, and the surrounding northwest suburbs. Whether you need a few panels replaced after a hailstorm or a full exterior siding replacement, we handle the complete job — removal, prep, installation, and finishing. We work with vinyl siding, which is the most common material in this market, and match new panels to your existing exterior so the repair looks right and holds up. As a licensed public adjusting group, we also manage the insurance claim when storm damage is the cause — documenting the loss, filing the claim, and negotiating the settlement before the first panel goes up.

Getting siding repaired or replaced should not require you to coordinate between a contractor and a public adjuster and an insurance company. With R&J, you make one call and the entire process is handled. Call us at +1 844-851-6396 to schedule a free siding inspection and find out whether what you are dealing with qualifies for an insurance-covered repair or replacement.

What We Offer:

Storm Damage Siding Repair – We repair siding cracked, dented, or torn by hail, wind, or fallen debris — replacing only the affected panels and matching the material and profile to your existing exterior for a clean, consistent result.
Full Siding Replacement – When storm damage is widespread or the existing siding has reached the end of its useful life, we handle a complete exterior siding replacement from removal through installation and finishing.
Hail & Wind Impact Assessment – We inspect all siding surfaces for hail impact marks, wind-forced cracks, and panel separations that qualify for insurance coverage — and document every affected area in detail for the claim.
Panel Matching & Material Sourcing – We source replacement panels that match your existing siding profile, color, and material so repairs are not visually obvious. For full replacements, we help you select materials suited to Illinois weather performance.
Moisture Barrier & Wrap Inspection – Before new siding goes on, we inspect the house wrap and moisture barrier underneath. If the existing barrier was compromised by the storm or age, we address it before installation so the new siding has proper protection behind it.
Insurance Claim Management – We document all siding damage for your insurance company, prepare and submit the claim, and negotiate the settlement. Siding is one of the most commonly underpaid line items in storm damage claims — we make sure it is properly valued.
Trim, Soffit & Fascia Repair – Siding damage rarely happens in isolation. We repair trim boards, soffit panels, and fascia that were also affected by the storm so the full exterior is restored, not just the siding panels.

Why Choose R&J General Contractor Public Adjusting Group for Siding Installation & Repair

We Handle the Claim and the Install – Siding damage from a storm is an insurable loss. R&J documents the damage, manages the insurance claim as a licensed public adjusting group, and installs the replacement. You do not need two separate companies — we cover both sides of the process.
Siding Is Frequently Underpaid – Insurance adjusters commonly undervalue siding damage, particularly when impact marks are subtle or when matching panels require a larger replacement scope than what was initially approved. We know how to document and argue for full coverage.
Material Matched to Your Home – A siding repair that does not match the rest of your exterior is a visible reminder of the storm every time you pull into your driveway. We take matching seriously and source the right material before any panels are ordered.
Built for Illinois Climate – We install siding using materials and methods appropriate for a climate with hard winters, spring hailstorms, and high summer humidity. Installation technique matters in this region — improper expansion gaps and fastening cause panels to warp and buckle within a few seasons.
Free Inspection, Honest Findings – We inspect your siding at no charge and tell you exactly what we found — what qualifies for a claim, what the repair scope looks like, and what it will cost. No inflated estimates, no pressure to proceed before you are ready.
