Handeland Construct LLC is a full-service siding contractor serving West Des Moines and surrounding county communities. We install and repair siding systems built for Iowa’s wind, hail, heat, moisture, and freeze cycles.
From James Hardie fiber cement to durable lap siding, every project receives careful planning and professional installation.
Fiber cement siding only performs as intended when every component is installed correctly. As specially trained siding contractors, we focus on fastening, flashing, clearances, trim, and moisture management throughout the project.
Des Moines homes face hail, strong winds, summer heat, and repeated freezing and thawing. More than ten years of local experience helps us recommend materials and siding installation methods suited for these conditions.
You should not have to hope everything stays tight after the job is done. We back our workmanship for five years, because we stand behind how we install every panel, trim piece, and connection point.
Trust starts with straightforward estimates, dependable scheduling, and honest communication. Our A+ rating reflects the standards we bring to every siding project.
We provide professional siding services throughout Des Moines. Our team keeps each project organized, protects the property, and maintains a clean work area.
The approach is straightforward. Find the actual problem, recommend the right solution, and complete the work without cutting corners.
Different siding materials offer different benefits. The best option depends on your budget, preferred appearance, maintenance expectations, and the conditions surrounding your cladding.
Fiber cement provides a solid cladding with clean lines and strong resistance to fire, pests, and severe weather.
James Hardie siding is available in several profiles, textures, and colors. Proper installation is essential for controlling moisture and protecting the manufacturer’s warranty.
Affordable, low maintenance, and available in many colors and profiles. It does not require routine painting and works well for many Des Moines homes.
Correct fastening allows the panels to expand and contract as temperatures change. Panels installed too tightly may buckle or develop visible waves.
Wood siding offers natural texture and a traditional appearance that manufactured materials cannot fully reproduce. It works especially well on homes where architectural character is a priority.
Wood requires regular maintenance to limit moisture damage, peeling, and deterioration. Proper sealing and installation help extend its service life.
Accent home siding adds contrast to gables, dormers, entryways, and other architectural features. Shakes can create a more detailed appearance, while vertical panels provide a cleaner, more modern look.
Accents should connect correctly with the surrounding siding. Poor transitions can create weak points where water enters the wall system.
Lap siding uses horizontal boards to create a familiar home style. It works with traditional, transitional, and modern home designs.
The overlapping profile helps move water away from the wall. Proper flashing remains necessary around windows, doors, rooflines, and exterior penetrations.
Board and batten siding uses strong vertical lines to make a home appear taller. It is popular on modern farmhouse and transitional exteriors.
This style can cover the complete home or highlight selected exteriors. Careful alignment is important because uneven spacing becomes easy to see across large walls. Recent Projects

Handeland Construct LLC is a family-owned and trusted siding company with service areas in West Des Moines and nearby Central Iowa communities.
Local homes range from established properties with aging wood or vinyl siding to newer homes with several siding profiles and architectural details. Each home requires an inspection based on its materials, age, exposure, and current condition.
We regularly find hail strikes, loose panels, cracked siding, deteriorated trim, and moisture entry around windows. Our recommendations address those conditions instead of applying the same solution to every home.
Siding work should feel organized, not stressful. We explain the upcoming work, confirm the schedule, and keep you informed throughout the project.
West Des Moines siding must withstand hail, strong winds, humidity, temperature swings, and repeated freeze cycles. The extent of the damage usually determines whether repair or replacement makes better financial sense.
Siding can look acceptable from the street while failing around windows, seams, corners, and roof-to-wall connections. These spots often allow water behind the exterior before the damage becomes obvious.
Our inspection examines those vulnerable details closely. We show you what we find and explain whether the problem calls for repair or replacement.
If a targeted repair can restore reliable protection, we will say so. If replacement offers better long-term value, we will explain the conditions behind that recommendation. Call today to arrange a meeting and free quote.
