Siding, Roofing & Windows
in Loves Park, IL
Your neighbors at 321 E Riverside Blvd — serving Loves Park homeowners since 1986 with expert exterior work and honest estimates.
Three generations of exterior expertise, rooted right here
Littlefield Siding is a family business. Tom Littlefield learned the trade from his father, and the company's combined experience spans more than 60 years of siding, roofing, window, and exterior work. We incorporated in 1986 and have operated from our Loves Park location ever since.
When a Loves Park homeowner calls us, they get an actual local crew — not a 1-800 number that routes to a sales rep in another state. Our people know this town because we live in it.
Our Story
Why Loves Park homeowners choose Littlefield
We know Loves Park housing stock
The average Loves Park home is around 50 years old — many still have original 60s and 70s aluminum siding. From ranch homes off Forest Hills Road to newer Central Park and Breckenridge builds, we know this housing stock inside and out.
Loves Park spans both Winnebago County and a sliver of Boone County. We pull permits for both jurisdictions.
We understand Loves Park weather
35 inches of annual snowfall. The freeze-thaw cycles of a northern Illinois spring. Our installations are specified for this climate — not ordered from a generic catalog.
We handle the insurance paperwork

Get Help NowCommon exterior issues on Loves Park homes
Loves Park is our home base. Our shop has been on East Riverside Boulevard since 1986, and a big share of the homes we work on are within a few miles of it. Much of the city was built out in the decades after World War II, so the typical Loves Park house is a ranch, split-level, or modest two-story built with the materials and methods of its era.
Homes of that age tend to share the same set of exterior problems, and they often show up together: aging roofs, dented and chalky aluminum siding, attics with less insulation and ventilation than a modern home, and original or early replacement windows.
Aging aluminum siding
Mid-century aluminum siding dents easily, loses its finish, and is hard to patch because matching panels are difficult to find. Replacing it also gives us a chance to check the wall underneath.
Replacing aluminum siding →Ice dams along the eaves
Older attics with limited insulation and ventilation let heat melt roof snow, which refreezes at the cold eaves and backs water under the shingles.
How to prevent ice dams →Roofs nearing the end of their life
Many homes here are on a roof that's 20 years old or more, and some have more than one layer of shingles. Both matter when you're deciding between a repair and a replacement.
Signs your roof needs replacing →Drafty older windows
Original and early replacement windows often leak air, fog between the panes, or stick. Knowing the warning signs helps you decide what to replace first.

Add freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snowfall, and northern Illinois rainfall — and you have a climate that accelerates exterior wear far faster than the national average. We install to the conditions, not the catalog.

Frequently asked by Loves Park homeowners
Yes, most exterior replacement work requires a permit from the City of Loves Park. We pull all required permits on your behalf as part of the job. If your property falls within the Boone County portion of Loves Park, the permit process differs slightly — we handle both.
Most full roof replacements take 1–2 days. Full siding replacements generally take 3–5 days depending on home size and siding type. We plan the schedule around your availability and the weather forecast — we don't start a job we can't finish cleanly.
We install year-round, but the best window for most projects is April through October. Winter installations are possible but weather-dependent. Storm damage repairs happen whenever they're needed, regardless of season.
Yes. We provide the inspection documentation, photographs, and scope of work that adjusters need, and we'll meet with the adjuster on-site when it helps. If an initial claim comes back short, we'll help you supplement. We never pressure a homeowner to file a claim that isn't warranted.
For roofing we work with GAF and Owens Corning systems. For siding and windows we'll walk you through current options during your free estimate. We only install products we stand behind and will tell you honestly what's right for your home and budget.
