CASE STUDY
Location: Bradwell Road, Inverness, IL, 60010
Customers: The Gerbers
Project Date: July 2025
Services: Consultation, structural inspection, waterproofing, full cedar siding replacement with premium vinyl siding.
Tyler and Monique Gerber had just moved into their dream home—a charming ranch in a welcoming, family-oriented neighborhood. As first-time homeowners, their excitement was quickly dimmed by the overwhelming number of exterior issues they discovered: a worn roof, aging windows, outdated insulation, and deteriorating siding.
What they needed most wasn’t just contractors—but trusted guidance to help them prioritize what truly mattered for their home’s safety, efficiency, and longevity.
After contacting several companies, Tyler found Holda Construction Roofing & Siding through a simple Google search for “roofing and siding.” What made our approach stand out was our commitment to transparency and education, not upselling. Tyler and Monique were clear: they wanted guidance—not sales pressure.
Their primary concerns:
We began with a detailed, step-by-step evaluation based on photos Tyler provided and an on-site inspection.

Attic & Ventilation:
Windows & Insulation:
Siding (Critical Issue):
Key Message: We educated Tyler and Monique on all issues, but emphasized the siding as the top priority to prevent further damage.
With clarity and confidence, The Gerbers chose to move forward with replacing the siding. The project began with the complete removal and safe disposal of the old, deteriorated wood siding. This step was essential to expose the underlying structure and ensure a solid foundation for the new installation.
Once the siding was removed, we carefully inspected the exposed surfaces. Any damaged plywood beneath the siding was promptly repaired, providing a clean and stable base. To protect against future moisture issues, we installed new flashing between the brick foundation and the exterior walls. This was followed by the application of a premium breathable house wrap, which enhances moisture resistance while allowing the home to breathe properly.
For the new siding, The Gerbers selected Mastic Quest Premium Vinyl with a thickness of .046 inches. They chose a double 4-inch straight profile, which offered a clean, timeless look. The color, English Wedgewood, brought a modern, attractive blue tone that dramatically improved curb appeal. Coordinated J-channel and vinyl corners were used to complete the trim, ensuring a seamless and polished finish.
To maintain both the project’s budget and the aesthetic continuity of the home, we preserved the original window moldings, soffits, and fascia. This thoughtful integration of old and new elements helped deliver a high-quality transformation while being mindful of cost efficiency.
Timeline & Cost:
The project resulted in a dramatic visual transformation that significantly enhanced the home’s curb appeal. The choice of English Wedgewood siding brought a fresh, modern aesthetic that instantly updated the look of the entire property.
Beyond appearances, the work provided meaningful structural benefits. By removing the deteriorated siding, addressing underlying issues, and installing protective layers and premium vinyl, we successfully eliminated the risk of moisture intrusion. This reinforced the home’s protective envelope and ensured long-term durability.
Perhaps most importantly, Tyler and Monique expressed deep satisfaction with the entire process. As first-time homeowners, they felt heard, guided, and empowered throughout each step. They especially appreciated the educational nature of our approach, the clear prioritization of needs, and the attention to detail that went into every phase of the project.
What began as a siding project laid the groundwork for a trusted relationship. Tyler and Monique are now considering:
