“We worked with Skyler on our siding project and had a great experience overall. We went with James Hardie siding on our home in Woodstock and Skyler was helpful throughout. The 3D rendering and design process was especially useful — it made it much easier to visualize everything and feel confident in the final decisions.”

Tiara Ramirez · Woodstock, IL · Hardie Siding · Jan 2026
★★★★★

“Skyler walked us through multiple 3D renderings and detailed design concepts for our home. He showed us different materials, color palettes, textures, and design combinations we hadn't even considered. We chose James Hardie siding and couldn't be happier with how everything turned out.”

Jasmeet Mavi · Woodstock, IL · Hardie Siding · Feb 2026
★★★★★

“We hired Innovative Home Concepts to replace our front windows. I was impressed with the entire process. From the estimate to the install, everything was on time, the crew was professional, and the windows look great.”

Stacy Rockweiler · McHenry County · Andersen Windows · Sep 2025
★★★★★

“Innovative is the company to call if you need windows. We had ordered 3 windows from another contractor in April — order was cancelled in October. Innovative stepped in and finished the job right.”

Sally Halverson · McHenry County · Andersen Windows · Feb 2024
★★★★★

“Skyler came out to give me an estimate on gutters today. He was cheerful, knowledgeable, and efficient. His suggestions were good and the pricing was fair. Would recommend to anyone considering new gutters.”

Mary Russell · McHenry County · Gutters · Aug 2024
★★★★★

Real Answers — From the Crew Who'll Actually Install It

How much does siding cost in McHenry County in 2026?
Hardie fiber cement runs $14–$18 per square foot installed. Vinyl runs $6–$8. Insulated vinyl (CraneBoard) $10–$12. Cedar shake $16–$22. Most McHenry County houses come in between $24K and $55K total. The free estimate confirms your exact number based on your wall area, trim, and material choice.
Why Hardie over vinyl?
Hardie is fiber cement — fire resistant, impact resistant, 30-year paint warranty, holds resale value. Vinyl is cheaper but warps in extreme cold and fades faster. Hardie is the McHenry County standard for premium remodels. We install both and steer you to the right one for your house.
What makes Innovative Home Concepts the right installer?
21 years installing exteriors in McHenry County. The only Hardie Select Contractor in the county. Five manufacturer certifications. Hundreds of 5-star reviews. We use real crews, not subs we just met. Free estimate gives you a real number on your project, not a phone estimate.
How long does a siding job take?
Most McHenry County houses come down in 5 to 10 working days. We dump-trailer the old siding, sheet-wrap, install, trim, paint touch-up, full site clean every day. Crew on-site through the whole job — no disappearing for a week mid-project.
Do you handle insurance claims for storm damage?
Yes — separate process from retail estimates. Insurance work uses Xactimate-priced scope. If you have hail or wind damage, mention it in the form and we walk you through the claim instead of the retail path.
