Faded, Warped, or Peeling Siding? It’s Time to Replace.

Old siding doesn’t just drag down curb appeal — it can let moisture in, drive energy costs up, and cause hidden structural issues. We’ll inspect your home and recommend the right long-term solution.

About Our Siding Services

We help homeowners refresh their exteriors with siding that performs as well as it looks. Whether you’re going for classic cedar or modern fiber cement, we install it right — with clean lines, proper flashing, and custom color matching.

About Our Siding Options

Vinyl Siding

Vinyl siding is one of the most cost-effective ways to boost curb appeal and energy performance. It won’t chip, peel, or fade — and it’s available in a wide range of colors and profiles to match your home’s style.

Aluminum Siding

Ideal for harsh climates, aluminum siding resists fire, moisture, and pests — all with a clean, timeless look. It’s a smart choice for homeowners who want long-term performance with minimal upkeep.

Cedar Siding

Cedar delivers unmatched character and charm — but only when installed by craftsmen who know how to work with it. We offer premium cedar siding, pre-treated and sealed for long-lasting beauty in any season.

Fiber Cement Siding

Fiber cement siding gives you authentic woodgrain texture without the maintenance headaches. It’s fire-resistant, insect-proof, and made to withstand extreme weather — making it one of the most trusted materials on the market.

James Hardie™ Siding

We’re a certified installer of James Hardie fiber cement siding — known for durability, color retention, and resistance to moisture and rot. Choose from dozens of colors and styles, all backed by a manufacturer warranty.

“Custom Installations made my house feel brand new — the siding is flawless, and the process was stress-free.”

Greta Harrris

John Robinson & crew was a pleasure to work with: very professional, respectful & competent. They kept me informed of their work schedule at all times & even went the extra mile to address a vent issue that I did not know I had. I would highly recommend using Custom Installations for their quality of work & making the customer feel at ease answering every question. Very satisfied.

Denali

Had Custom installations redo the entire exterior,(hardie board) roof, and gutters of our home and the results were great! Very professional and organized. Whenever I had a concern or question, my point of contact and project lead, John was an invaluable resource and took care of any issues or questions immediately. I was very impressed with his knowledge and ability to communicate my concerns and wants to whatever crew was working for the entirety of the project. Would definitely recommend and use custom installations on future projects.

Ryan Chitwood

I was in need of a metal crew that could do very high end copper work and was recommended this company by a major national player that owns a company in Denver, Co. The people at Custom Installations were amazing from start to finish, literally. They traveled here during the week for work and were so careful and respectful. Their copper/metal work is as good as I have ever seen. They just completed the most beautiful roof we have ever done for a homeowner. Their communication was fluid and consistent and we had zero issues. For a job with a ticket that size, we needed this to be a smooth process and Custom Installations Inc knocked it out of the park for us. Thank you guys!

Custom Installation was great to work with through this whole process. From the beginning, Ted Aydt Was very professional and thorough with the bid and immensely helpful with the insurance issues. On the job, the whole crew was great and so respectful. John Robinson was The project manager and always kept us up-to-date as did the office staff. I would definitely recommend them for your roofing job.

Will Lynn

Our old siding and part of our garage where damaged due to a storm which resulted in our house needing to be completely re-sided and part of the garage roof replaced. We chose Custom Installation not only for the quality of their work but their skilled teams knowledge of insurance claims. Bruce truly made this entire process as smooth as possible. We could lot be happier with how our house turned out.

Jacob Rosenfeld

We just hired Custom Installations to re-side & re-roof my home. We chose James Hardie, Board & Baton siding. The Custom Installations team was awesome, from my sales contact, Brad Hironimus, to the installers. Despite the house being originally constructed in the 1960's, it now looks brand new and I expect will further stand the test of time. The foreman assigned to our job, John Robinson, was exceptional. He was extremely responsive and always arrived on site with a great attitude. Whenever I had questions or concerns, he was easy to reach and successfully drove the team into delivering a fantastic result. I would definitely refer the Custom Installations team to anyone looking to improve their home.

Robert Tschurtz

We recently had a new asphalt roof installed on our residence here in Wisconsin. Mr. Pohlman and his crew were professional, timely, and exacting in the quality of their work. The project started and ended on time with no issues. Our property was left in the same condition as when they started. Mr. Pohlman was always available by email and personal cell phone for any questions, and personally on site. Overall, an excellent experience all the way around. Very rare these days.

Brett Paschke

The roof looks great and communication from Kevin and team was excellent throughout. Bob and the onsite team were up on the roof in below zero weather getting the job done.

What Homeowners Ask Us Most

How do I know if it’s time to replace my siding?

Look for signs like warping, cracking, rotting, fading, or rising energy bills. We offer free inspections to help you determine whether a repair or full replacement makes the most sense.

What types of siding do you install?

We specialize in vinyl, aluminum, cedar, fiber cement, and are certified installers of James Hardie™ siding. We’ll help you choose the best option for your home’s style, budget, and weather exposure.

Will new siding help lower my energy bills?

Yes — especially when paired with a proper moisture barrier and insulation. Many of our siding systems help regulate indoor temperatures and reduce drafts, leading to improved efficiency.

How long does siding installation take?

Most full siding projects are completed in 3–5 days, depending on the size of the home and the type of material. We’ll give you a clear timeline before we begin.

Yes. We provide complete exterior envelope services — including trim, fascia, soffits, and custom accents — to ensure your siding project is both structurally sound and visually seamless.
