Aloha’s 15th Anniversary

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
August 11th 2022

Aloha Construction Company Celebrates 15 Years in Business

LAKE ZURICH, IL – The harsh reality is that approximately 20% of new businesses fail during the first two years of being open, 45% during the first five years, and 65% during the first ten years. Only 25% of new businesses make it to 15 years or more.

These menacing statistics give companies who hit the milestone of their 15th year in business good reason to celebrate – and Aloha Construction is celebrating just that this year! Aloha opened its doors in 2008, one year prior to the great recession. Through much hard work, keen management and skilled craftsmanship, they survived this tough period and eventually strived.

Serving all of Chicagoland and southern Wisconsin, Aloha Construction also has a division in Bloomington, IL. Aloha’s president, Dave Farbaky, shares the fact that they have over 25,000 completed projects, which is an impressive number.

Aloha Construction focuses on exterior residential work, such as roofing, siding, gutters and windows. Farbaky notes that they are also experts in working with the homeowner’s insurance companies, which is something most homeowners really appreciate.

In 2014, Farbaky found himself asking “What about homeowners who have issues inside their homes, such as flooding, mold or fire damage?” The answer to this stream of thought was to create Aloha Restoration, which handles water, mold and fire damage mitigation as well as restoration.

When asked what has kept Aloha in business for so long, Farbaky claims it’s the careful orchestration of business planning, strong marketing and most importantly, building a team of great crafts-people. He also states that it’s critical for a company to reward hard work, the importance of continuing education and providing opportunities for career advancement for all employees.

Please join Aloha Construction in celebrating their 15th anniversary celebration at AlohaBuilds.com, where they live by the motto “We Reign When It Storms.

A New Season for Local Siding Contractors Aloha Construction: 20,000 Local Roofing Jobs Completed

Being such fast growing roofers and local siding contractors has come with some serious ups and downs. We’ve had our successes and made our mistakes. We’ve learned from those mistakes while also taking each moment of success as a sign to also continue to develop. In Spring 2013, when discussing the future during a news release, we were just excited to have completed 7,000 roofing & siding jobs in the state of Illinois. In Spring 2015, our owner, Dave Farbaky, said “The plan is to immensely expand our Bloomington office in such a way that it can compete with our headquarters in Lake Zurich. This will allow us to service the entire state of Illinois with relative ease…We want to keep expanding and evolving to service, and make life easier for the folks of Illinois.”

Since then? We believe we’ve accomplished those goals in more. For starters, this year we can proudly say that we’ve completed over 20,000 roofing and siding jobs in the state of Illinois!! Thanks to the hard work of our Bloomington office we were able to accomplish our service area dreams outlined by Dave 2 years ago.

This year? We’ve continued to try and push Dave’s promise of evolving service to make life easier for the folks of Illinois. We redeveloped our website to give homeowners the roofing and siding help they need in less clicks. We became roofers who finance so you can have options when an insurance adjuster is playing hardball. We even went out to sponsor the local sports teams you found important (our beloved Bloomington Thunder, the Normal Cornbelters, and the Kane County Cougars). All of this only happening in the 1st quarter of the new year!

This roofing season? We have so many surprises planned. From innovative multi-media video usage/commercials to the reinvention of Aloha Restoration, Co; our stand-alone water extraction, fire damage restoration, and clean-up company which will be re-launched to the public at the end of this month! So many things in store and we appreciate all of you who continue to support and stay in-tuned.

Without you, our continued success in the Midwest wouldn’t be possible!

Hire a local siding contractor or Do-IT-Yourself?

DIY or siding contractor?

If you have replaced old siding with new siding, then you may be both competent and confident enough to take this exterior restoration project on yourself. The Do it yourself path will most often save you money, but it can take longer to complete and there’s no guarantee your craftmanship will last. For instance, we offer a 10 year warranty. Also, this will take much longer than a weekend. Local siding contractors working full time can take only half the time to side a home depending on the size and the weather conditions. If an expert takes weeks to finish siding a home, your do-it-yourself siding project will most likely exceed that amount.

If you have had little to no experience putting vinyl siding on homes, leave it up to trusted local siding contractors. Siding installation may look relatively easy, but this is not for beginners. Working around corners, eaves, soffits and fascia, along with trimming openings like windows, screens, and doors; are all technical aspects of the project that can be easy to get wrong. If you choose to replace the siding yourself, you need to know the extent of the storm damage to figure out whether to repair or completely remove old siding.

Some other factors to consider: You need to know how to spot, repair, and replace where mold, water, or vermin have damaged it. Do you know how to attach frieze board and sheathing? Which method lends itself to the type of siding (alumnimum, vinyl, etc.) you selected. You must have the skill and tools to cut the siding planks to fit. When it comes to siding, it will benefit both you and your home to hire a professional.

Replacing siding can make your home a lot more attractive, giving it a look that adds character and curb appeal. It can also make your home more energy efficient by keeping heat in and saving on utility bills  Siding replacement has consistently been one of the best home improvement projects for adding value to your home and is one of the few projects that can show a direct return on your investment.

Know what you’re getting yourself into before you begin to DIY your siding project…
