House number two from this neighborhood transformation.

This home received a full roof replacement in Malarkey Weathered Wood Plus and the finished look blended perfectly with the brick and trim colors. One of those roofs that just fits the house exactly right.

Before ➡️ After

This homeowner went with a full roof replacement a couple weeks ago and the finished product turned out beautiful. The updated color completely changed the look of the home without changing the character of it.

Simple, clean, and done right.

Your cleaning checklist might be missing the most expensive part of your house 👀🏠

Now is a great time to check how your roof handled winter — but one thing that stood out to us… sometimes homeowners accidentally cause damage during cleanup.

A few reminders:
✔️ Skip the pressure washer on shingles
✔️ Use care when cleaning gutters (metal tools can damage edges)
✔️ Make sure downspouts are moving water away from the home
✔️ Take note if you’re seeing excess granules collecting in gutters
✔️ Small issues now are easier than emergency repairs later

And our biggest tip? You don’t have to climb up there yourself.

If something looks off — or if you just want peace of mind— getting it looked at early can save a lot later.

At Koch Konstruction, we believe maintenance and education go a long way in protecting your home.



Based on guidance shared by Malarkey Roofing Products about spring roof checks and safe gutter cleaning practices.

We’ve been quietly building something really cool on our website lately 👀

Our recent projects page is finally starting to fill up with some of the work we’re really proud of — roofs, siding, transformations, and real homes right here in Central Illinois.

Honestly… seeing all these projects together really puts into perspective how much trust homeowners have put in us over the years, and that means a lot to us.

If you’ve never checked it out before, take a look:

We did the other section of this home previously, so it was awesome getting the call back to come finish the rest.

That kind of trust never gets old.

This one turned out really clean.

A couple storms later… and the “we’re starting the season clean and organized” setup didn’t last long 😅

When storms hit, this is what it really looks like behind the scenes. Samples, ladders, emergency repairs, tarps, tools, paperwork… packed in and heading to the next homeowner.

Busy season is here, but we’re thankful for every call, every customer, and the trust people put in us when things don’t go as planned.

Now excuse us while we try to find anything in the back of this car again. 👀

From opened up and repaired to looking like home again 👏

Siding is on and we’re wrapping up the final details on this one.

Proof that taking the time to do it right pays off.

Some posts are for promotion. This one is for a moment to pause. ❤️🤍💙

Today we remember the men and women who never made it home.
The ones who gave up birthdays, holidays, milestones, and moments with the people they loved… so we could have ours.

Memorial Day isn’t about a day off. It’s about honoring those who paid the price for our freedom and remembering the families who carry that sacrifice every day.

We remember the fallen.
We honor their sacrifice.
And we are forever grateful.

🇺🇸 Never forgotten.

Progress update on this one. 💪

The damaged areas have been opened up, repaired, and this home is now getting wrapped back up the right way before the new siding goes on.

Not the glamorous part of the project — but this is the work that protects a home long term.
Finished transformation coming soon. 👀

Once we started opening things up…

We uncovered years of hidden damage behind the siding.
This is why experience matters.

A house can look perfectly fine on the surface while bigger problems are building underneath.
