Location: Wilmette, IL
Renovations: James Hardie Siding, Malarkey Roof Shingles, Marvin Elevate Windows, and Exterior Painting
This colonial style home, nestled in the lakefront town of Wilmette, Illinois, was in need of some long-awaited TLC. The project began with the homeowners’ desire to revamp their outdated property, suffering from weathered aluminum siding, aging windows, old roofing, and deteriorating front entry trim. Entrusting their vision to Siding & Windows Group was an easy decision for the homeowners, drawn by the company’s impressive design expertise, local reputation for excellence, and competitive rates.
Infusing Modern Flair into a Classic Colonial Home
Siding & Windows Group expertly incorporated the homeowners’ desires by merging the existing traditional colonial structure with a contemporary flair. To replace the old aluminum siding and roofing, the homeowner selected premium materials, including James Hardie fiber cement siding in Arctic White with a statement roof in Midnight Black from Malarkey.
Additionally, to replace the aging windows and front door, they chose windows and a door from the Marvin Elevate collection to compliment their modernized home exterior.
Finally, the team refreshed the exterior by painting the brick white, seamlessly integrating the desired modern twist while preserving the home’s timeless charm.
Overcoming Design Hurdles by Crafting a Resilient Solution
During the roof installation, we encountered a design challenge regarding fascia mounting. This necessitated installing a new wooden fascia around the entire roof perimeter, providing a robust base for the Hardie fascia. By creating a dedicated mounting space and overlaying the wooden fascia, we crafted a solution resistant to rot, seamlessly integrating desired design elements, ensuring durability, and long-lasting protection against the elements.
Exceeding Expectations for Proud Homeowners
Our collaborative efforts culminated in a project that exceeded the homeowners’ expectations. They expressed satisfaction with every aspect of the process, from our adherence to budget to the design execution. Additionally, they valued our innovative approach, particularly evident in the installation of the wooden fascia, which brought their vision to life.
At Siding & Windows Group, we recognize that remodeling your home’s exterior is a significant undertaking, often a once-in-a-lifetime endeavor. That is why we meticulously attend to every detail, ensuring that each design element aligns perfectly with your vision. Whether you are considering a complete exterior makeover or simply upgrading your windows, we invite you to schedule an appointment with us to explore the design possibilities for your home.
