Why It Matters

Your Siding Is the First Line of Defense.

Most homeowners think about siding when it starts looking bad โ€” peeling paint, warped panels, or hail dings. The reality is that failing siding is a moisture problem waiting to happen. Once water gets behind the panels, it's not just cosmetic anymore.

N&K installs siding systems engineered to handle Northwest Indiana winters, summer heat cycles, and severe hail storms โ€” the same conditions that prematurely age cheaper products. We carry LP SmartSide, premium vinyl, and fiber cement so we can match the right product to your home's specific situation.

We don't do one-size-fits-all. If LP SmartSide is overkill for your budget, we'll tell you. If you need the best, we'll walk you through exactly why.

  • LP SmartSide โ€” engineered wood with superior impact and moisture resistance
  • Full tear-off always included โ€” we don't side over siding, ever
  • Housewrap installed to spec โ€” no moisture shortcuts behind the panels
  • Color matching for partial replacements and insurance jobs
  • Storm damage documentation for insurance claims
  • Written workmanship warranty on every job

Siding Options

The Right Siding
For Every Home & Budget

We carry the products we actually believe in โ€” not whatever has the best margin. Here's what we install and why each option exists.

๐Ÿ 
Premium Vinyl

The most popular choice across Northwest Indiana โ€” low-maintenance, color-stable, and cost-effective. We only install thick-profile vinyl (.046"+), which holds its shape through NWI temperature swings unlike the contractor-grade stuff.

.046"+ Panel Thickness Lifetime Fade Warranty 50+ Colors Zero Painting Required
๐Ÿงฑ
Fiber Cement

James Hardie and similar products offer a premium look with excellent fire and moisture resistance. Best for homes with high aesthetic expectations or unique architectural profiles.

Non-Combustible Rot & Pest Resistant 30-Year Finish Warranty Custom Color Matching
๐Ÿ”จ
Partial Replacement & Repair

Not every project is a full re-side. Storm damage, impact dings, or a failed section needs targeted replacement. We color-match to your existing siding and document everything for insurance if applicable.

Insurance Documentation Color Match Guaranteed Same-Product Priority
โ›ˆ๏ธ
Storm Damage Replacement

Hail dents and wind damage trigger insurance replacements more often than homeowners realize. We assess, document, and file alongside your adjuster.

๐ŸŽจ
Soffit, Fascia & Trim

Siding projects are the natural time to replace aging soffit, fascia, and trim boards. One crew, one mobilization, everything matching when we're done.

Insurance Claims
Hail or Wind Damage?
We Handle the Claim.

A lot of NWI homeowners have legitimate siding claims they never file โ€” either because they assume the damage isn't "bad enough" or they don't want the hassle of dealing with insurance. We make both of those reasons disappear.

We inspect free of charge, document to insurance standard, attend adjuster meetings, and file supplements when the initial payout is short. Our crew installs more insurance-funded siding than any other contractor in Northwest Indiana.

"Meticulous work โ€” every corner detail, every trim piece finished right. They caught water damage behind the old siding and fixed it before the new product went on. Best investment we've made on this house in 20 years."

Common Questions

Siding Questions We
Get Asked All the Time

Is LP SmartSide really better than vinyl? +
Depends what you're optimizing for. LP SmartSide gives you a natural wood appearance and exceptional impact resistance โ€” it handles NWI hail significantly better than standard vinyl. It does require repainting every 7โ€“10 years. Vinyl is zero-maintenance and excellent for color retention. Both are solid products. We'll give you a straight recommendation based on your home, not based on margin.
Do you side over existing siding or do a full tear-off? +
We always do a full tear-off. Siding over existing siding hides potential moisture damage, adds unnecessary weight, and voids manufacturer warranties on most premium products. It's a shortcut that costs the homeowner more long-term. Our process includes complete removal, sheathing inspection, and fresh housewrap before any new product goes on.
How long does a full re-side take? +
For an average 2,000 sq ft home, a complete re-side typically runs 3โ€“5 days depending on the product, gable count, and any repairs needed behind the siding. Larger homes or complex architectural features may take 5โ€“7 days. We give you a project schedule before work begins so you can plan around it.
My hail damage seems minor โ€” is it worth filing a claim? +
Often yes. Insurance adjusters look for functional damage, not just cosmetic dents. Even small hail impacts can crack the surface and compromise the moisture seal โ€” that's a valid claim. We inspect free and give you an honest assessment. If the damage doesn't meet your deductible, we'll tell you upfront. We don't push claims that don't make financial sense for the homeowner.
Can you match my existing siding color for a partial replacement? +
In most cases, yes. We carry a wide color library and can often source the same product run. Older siding does fade over time, so there may be slight variation โ€” we're upfront about this. For insurance jobs, the typical resolution is a full-side replacement to ensure uniform color throughout.
Do you handle soffit, fascia, and trim at the same time? +
Yes, and we recommend bundling it. Soffit and fascia replacement uses the same scaffolding and mobilization as a siding job, so doing it simultaneously saves significant labor cost. We include it in the initial estimate so you can see the cost comparison clearly before committing.
