Why does it matter that IHC is a certified James Hardie contractor?

James Hardie audits certified contractors for installation quality, crew training, and customer satisfaction. If your installer isn’t Hardie Select, your product warranty may be limited. IHC is the only Hardie Select Remodeler in McHenry County, which means full warranty coverage and manufacturer-backed installation standards.

Do you help with insurance claims for storm damage?

Yes. We have licensed public adjusters on staff who handle the insurance claim process from start to finish — from filing through final payment. Our adjusters fight for the full scope of your claim so you don’t have to negotiate with your insurance company alone.

What siding materials do you install?

We install James Hardie fiber cement siding, LP SmartSide engineered wood siding, vinyl siding (Mastic, CraneBoard), and Versetta Stone accent panels. Each material has different performance characteristics — we’ll help you pick the right one for your home’s exposure and your budget.

How long does a typical siding or window project take?

Most residential siding projects take 1–3 weeks depending on home size and material. Window replacements usually take 1–2 days for a full house. Weather and material availability can shift timelines, but we give you a realistic schedule upfront.

Do you offer financing?

Yes. We offer financing options for qualified homeowners. Exterior remodeling is a significant investment, and we want to make sure budget isn’t the reason your home stays unprotected through another McHenry County winter.
