Northern Illinois storms are serious. So are we.
The Loves Park and Rockford area sees dozens of confirmed hail events every year. When a storm hits your home, the damage to roofing, siding, and windows is often more extensive than it looks from the ground — and it gets worse quickly if water finds its way in.
Littlefield Siding provides free storm damage inspections, documents everything your insurance adjuster needs, and completes all repairs with the same crew from start to finish. We've helped hundreds of northern Illinois homeowners get their claims approved and their homes restored — without the runaround.
Three areas storm damage hits hardest
Hail and wind damage rarely hits just one part of your home. We assess and repair all exterior damage in a single project.
Roof Damage
Hail bruises and cracks asphalt shingles, knocking off granules and exposing the mat underneath. Wind lifts and tears shingles, breaking the seal strip and leaving gaps for water entry. Both types of damage are often invisible from the ground and require a trained eye on the roof.
Siding Damage
Hail dents and cracks vinyl and aluminum siding — sometimes subtly, but enough to compromise the weather seal. Wind can tear panels loose entirely, snap J-channel, and damage corner trim. Insurance covers storm siding damage, but adjusters frequently miss hits that our inspectors find.
Window & Soffit Damage
Hail shatters or chips window glass and cracks frames. Soffit and fascia take direct hits and can be dented, cracked, or torn loose. Gutters are frequently damaged in the same event. We assess the full exterior so nothing gets missed — and nothing gets left out of your insurance claim.
We manage the entire process — you just approve the work
Most homeowners have never filed a storm damage claim before. Here's exactly what happens when you call us.
Free Inspection
We walk your entire exterior — roof, siding, windows, gutters, soffit, and fascia — and document every impact mark, crack, and damaged panel.
You File the Claim
We walk you through the claim filing process with your insurance carrier and answer every question. You file — we support.
Adjuster Meeting
We meet your insurance adjuster on-site, present our full documentation, and make sure every item of damage is included in the scope.
Supplement if Needed
If the adjuster's estimate comes back short — which is common — we prepare a detailed supplement and work to get the scope corrected.
We Complete the Repairs
Our crew does all the work. Same people who inspected your home complete the repairs and walk you through the finished job.

Insurance adjusters work fast and cover a lot of houses after a major storm. We spend more time on your inspection, document more thoroughly, and consistently find damage that initial estimates leave out.

Frequently asked storm damage questions
Hail damage on asphalt shingles shows up as dark circular bruises, granule loss, and cracked or fractured mat — most of which are hard or impossible to see from the ground. From the gutter line you may notice dented aluminum, cracked plastic vents, or granules washing out. The safest way to know for sure is a professional inspection — ours are free and come with a written report regardless of what we find.
It can, depending on your insurer and your claim history. However, storm damage claims are typically weighted less heavily because they are weather events — not maintenance failures. We'll never pressure you to file a claim; we'll present what we found and let you make the decision. Many homeowners find that the repair cost far exceeds their deductible, making the claim clearly worthwhile.
Most Illinois homeowner's insurance policies allow storm damage claims to be filed within 1–2 years of the event. However, the sooner you file, the better. Documentation is cleaner, damage is easier to attribute to the storm, and you avoid secondary damage from delayed repairs. If you're not sure when the damage occurred, a dated hail report for your area — which we can help obtain — can establish the storm event.
This is more common than you'd think — especially after widespread storm events when adjusters are covering hundreds of homes quickly. We prepare a detailed supplement with our documented damage scope, repair line items, and supporting photos. You are never obligated to accept the first adjuster estimate as final.
No. In Illinois, you have the legal right to choose your own contractor for storm repairs. Insurance companies may suggest a preferred vendor, but you are not required to use them. We work with all major insurers and handle the documentation process regardless of who your carrier is.
We inspect your entire exterior — roof (we get on it), siding, windows, soffit, fascia, and gutters. We photograph every area of damage, note dimensions and panel counts, and produce a written damage report. This report is what we use when presenting to your adjuster. There is no charge and no obligation to hire us.
