May 15, 2025
Upgrade Your Home’s Comfort, Curb Appeal, and Energy Efficiency with Dick’s Roof Repair Service
If you’re thinking about updating your home exterior, summer is the ideal season to take action. Longer daylight hours, dry weather, and warmer temperatures make it the perfect time to tackle those much-needed window, door, and siding upgrades. At Dick’s Roof Repair Service, we’ve been helping homeowners across Kenosha, Racine, Walworth, and Southern Milwaukee Counties protect and enhance their homes for decades—and there’s never been a better time to get started.
Meet Katie Prybylski: Operations Manager & Exterior Expert
When it comes to exterior home improvements, Katie Prybylski, our Operations Manager, brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to every project. Katie has been with Dick’s Roof Repair Service since April 2016, following 13 years at ABC Supply selling roofing, windows, and siding to contractors, and 5 years in the same role at Menards. Her deep product expertise and passion for helping homeowners make her an invaluable resource for anyone looking to upgrade their home’s exterior.
“Homeowners usually know what they want thanks to HGTV and social media,” Katie shares. “I walk them through the best products for their needs and budget. We have color samples on hand and can even direct them to homes we’ve worked on in the area so they can see our work firsthand. For those who want more guidance, I recommend siding visualizer tools so they can experiment with colors and designs.”

Upgrade with Confidence: High-Quality Windows & Doors
Your windows and doors play a crucial role in your home’s energy efficiency, security, and comfort—not to mention curb appeal. Outdated or improperly installed units can lead to drafts, leaks, and rising energy bills. At Dick’s, we only install top-performing products and offer a wide range of styles to match your home’s aesthetic:
- Siding: LP Smart Side or Mastic Vinyl
- Windows: Double-Hung, Casement, Sliders, Awning, Bays & Bows
- Doors: Patio, Entry & Storm
When it comes to product recommendations, Katie often gets asked about preferred brands. “For windows, we work with Pella, which offers Aluminum Clad, Fiberglass, and Vinyl options; Marvin, with Aluminum Clad and Fiberglass options; and Midway Alliance, which provides Vinyl options. These brands offer a range of choices from standard to premium, giving homeowners flexibility in both quality and price.”
And because your windows and doors are only as good as the contractor who installs them, our expert installers ensure every job is done with precision and care.
Enhance and Protect with New Siding
Replacing old or damaged siding is one of the most effective ways to improve your home’s appearance and protection against the elements. Whether you’re looking for a modern update or essential repairs, we offer:
- LP Smart Side® Engineered Wood Siding – Known for its durability, impact resistance, and natural wood appearance
- Mastic® Vinyl Siding – A low-maintenance, cost-effective option with superior weather performance

Katie is often asked about siding choices. “Homeowners can choose from Mastic Vinyl Siding in .044 Carvedwood or upgrade to .046 Quest for added durability. For decorative elements, Mastic’s Cedar Discovery Decorative Shakes are popular. We also offer LP SmartSide Lap Siding and SmartSide Shake Siding for those wanting a more natural wood look with engineered strength.”
