Common questions, answered plainly
Do the 1950s and 1960s homes in Lombard need special siding work?
Often, yes. Many postwar houses have original sheathing, minimal insulation, and wall openings sized for older windows. We inspect what is behind the existing cladding before quoting the replacement, then bring the wall detail up to current practice with proper flashing and underlayment. That preparation is what keeps new siding straight and watertight on an older frame.
Which parts of Lombard do you cover for a roof repair, and how is a visit arranged?
We cover the whole village, from the older blocks near Main Street and the rail line to areas like Flowerfield on the edges. Call to describe the problem, we schedule a time within our 7 am to 7 pm seven-day window, and a crew member inspects the roof, checks the attic side if needed, and reviews the findings with you before any work is approved.
Can I replace windows without redoing all the siding?
Usually. Window Replacement is often a separate project, but the two jobs interact. When we set a new window, we integrate flashing with the existing wall so water sheds correctly. If the siding around the opening is cracked or brittle, we repair that section during the same visit rather than leaving a patch job for later.
Is it worth repairing older aluminum siding or switching to vinyl?
It depends on the condition of the panels and what is behind them. If the aluminum is intact and the issue is isolated damage, Siding Repair with matched sections can extend its life. When the cladding is faded, dented across large areas, or letting water behind it, Vinyl Siding is usually the more durable choice. We inspect the wall and give you the honest scope before you decide.

What should Lombard customers know?
Lombard sits in DuPage County, about 20 miles west of Chicago, with the Metra Union Pacific West line running through the center of town. The village grew quickly after the war, so blocks of compact ramblers and Cape Cods sit beside later subdivision build-out toward the edges. Roughly 44,000 residents share about 10 square miles, and housing units are dense, over 1,800 per square mile. Older corridors near the railroad tracks and downtown hold the oldest exteriors, while areas like Flowerfield carry their own mix of ages. Winters along DuPage County bring freeze-thaw cycles that work at siding seams and window frames every year.

Why Lombard customers need this work
Postwar homes punish shortcuts. Original walls were built before modern house wrap, so Siding Repair and Siding Installation on a Lombard rambler means checking sheathing and flashing, not just hanging new panels. Vinyl Siding gives those houses a maintenance-free face, and Window Replacement seals the drafts that single-pane units never controlled. The same weather that fades siding works on the roof, so we inspect shingles and step flashing while the ladders are up. Doing the walls and openings in one planned order saves a repeat visit later.
Why choose Exteriors Enterprise Inc for roofing contractors in Lombard?
Exteriors Enterprise Inc works on the siding and window problems that come with Lombard's postwar housing stock. Many homes here went up in the 1950s and 1960s, when aluminum and older vinyl cladding was standard, and that material eventually cracks, fades and lets water behind it. We inspect the wall, explain what has failed, and lay out the order of the job before anything starts. Homeowners across the village, from the streets near Main Street to the blocks around Flowerfield, get a clear scope and a straight answer.
Lombard homeowners can hire from DuPage County or from contractors based closer to our Lansing shop. Distance matters when a crew has to return for a follow-up or an inspection after a storm. We are close enough to be back the same week, and we already know this housing stock: the wall assemblies, the window rough openings, and the trim details common to 1950s and 1960s build. That familiarity shows up in fewer surprises once the old cladding comes off. We run 7 am to 7 pm seven days a week, so scheduling fits around a commute on the Metra line.
