Their superior workmanship, quality construction and prompt communication are why we chose them to build our dream home. We couldn’t be happier. We have had so many people tell us how beautiful our house is and that is because together as a team we worked well together, solved problems and developed a long term relationship. Even after 4 years we still ask our builder questions or ask for help if we need something fixed and they always respond and take care of it. They are true professionals, great to work with and stand by their product. I highly recommend Siena! **★★★★★ — Michael Rowan, Sept. 2018** > Siena Custom Builders is a premier home builder. Darin helped us design our home and then constructed it on time with exceptional quality. His attention to detail is unparalleled in the industry. My wife and I did a significant amount of diligence and Siena was our choice because quality and performance were key. Our house was completed in the summer of 2015 within the agreed timeframe and within the budget excluding my own change orders, of course. We have now lived here for three years and enjoy it immensely. Darin is detailed, organized, experienced, creative, and a man of his word. His value proposition is exceptional. **★★★★★ — Michele Tannenbaum, Feb. 2017** > I had my custom house built by Siena Custom builders. I was so happy with everything. Darin is a perfectionist and makes sure everything he uses is of highest quality and workmanship. I would highly recommend this company. **★★★★★ — Mitchell Tannenbaum, Nov. 2016** > After selling my business my wife and I decided to have our dream house built by Siena Custom Builders in Naperville, IL. We had an idea of what we wanted it to look like, but were unable to actually describe it. Darin and Sherry were able to take our abstract thoughts and create a drawing of what the house could look like. It was exactly what we wanted. As they built our house they would offer suggestions of what could be done to improve the look and feel of the house. Their attention to detail and their concern about how everything would come together was quite extraordinary. Building our house with Siena was a thoroughly positive experience. We love our house and have total peace of mind knowing we have a solid high quality home backed by an honest builder who cares as much about our house as his own. **★★★★★ — Bobby Carlsen, Oct. 2015** > Siena Custom Builders has established themselves as one of the premier design and build firms in the western suburbs of Chicago. In the homes I have been in, what stands out is that no corners are cut to produce their homes. They are a shining example of how to do business in a community. Siena homes are timeless, distinct, and impressive. **★★★★★ — ethansdad, Oct. 2013** > We just love our new Siena Custom Home! Darin and his assistant Sherri were wonderful to work with and helped us to stay on our budget as well as finish the project ahead of schedule! We have received many compliments on our new house. The new design blends well with the other homes in the neighborhood. We were able to take a 60's style ranch house and build on the existing foundation and go up! We now have a darling two story cape cod style home with an indoor sport court above our garage. This space comes in handy on those cold winter days....all the kids in the neighborhood love to come over the hang out. **★★★★★ — tboddy1, Sept. 2013** > We chose SCB to build our home almost 9 years ago and it was one of the best decisions we've ever made. The whole team at SCB are professionals who really know the art of building a dream home. They worked with us every step of the way and never tired of our endless questions and idea pictures. We had built a home before and had been nickel and dimed to death over the add on's and upgrades. When you go to build a home, you need to compare all the fine details, not just the bottom line of price. Our trim is amazing throughout our home and much of it was included and not an upgrade. It's also the quality of the materials being used that you don't see. Being one of the "older" Siena homes, we are always astounded at how well the house is built. Quality work from top to bottom. Last winter (2012), we finished our third floor that we had roughed in when building. Of course, we went back to SBC and couldn't be more pleased with the results. It was different living in the home while work was done but all of the workers were respectful and professional around our family and home. One final thing that we would like to mention is the timing of our projects. Not only did Darin stay on top of things, we felt like he was living at our home while it was being built. He is not a builder that you will never see at your site. His knowledge of all aspects of building is what makes SBC so amazing. He keeps everything moving and spots problems and fixes them while the project is ongoing. Our home was not only finished on time but was a couple weeks earlier than we needed it. We cannot recommend SCB highly enough! Definite 5 stars and that is hard to say about a builder. **★★★★★ — bbriick, Sept. 2013** > Working with Darin and Sherry of Siena Custom Builders was a terrific experience and true pleasure doing business with them. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. In 2011, Siena completed a whole house renovation on my 1964 standard 2-story home based on an independent architect’s design. This included a new 2 story addition, new front foyer, build-out of a new master suite over the garage, added 2 fireplaces, repurposed all the rooms on the main level, moved laundry room to 2nd floor, new mechanicals, added many trim upgrades and high end finishes throughout the home and a total exterior overhaul. Siena turned a very plain house into a very warm, inviting home. > > I selected Siena because of strong reputation in quality craftsmanship, their signature style of casual elegance and competitive pricing, but more importantly, I had felt a strong rapport when talking with Darin and Sherry about my project. Their expertise and knowledge of every aspect in home construction is unquestionable. Communication throughout the entire process was excellent; I always knew what was going on every day or if I had a question, Siena was very quick to respond. They provided thoughtful input on finishes and quickly resolved unexpected issues (what renovation doesn't have them) while completing the project on time-in a short 6 months. Siena’s subs are meticulous and take pride in their work. Siena was very respectful of my wishes and was committed to making sure I had total satisfaction (after installing stonework on the exterior, I expressed to Darin that one side appeared to me to have too many smaller sized stones, but could live with it as is and the next day I was pleasantly surprised it was modified). Each night the broader construction site was always clean. I added a lot of custom trim work throughout the interior of the home and cannot say enough good things about Siena’s trim carpenter and his creativity. Not only was Darin and Sherry available at anytime during the construction phase, they continue to be available long after the project has been completed. As a result, I have a beautiful, high quality home that makes me smile very time I come home. > > I would strongly recommend Siena for new construction or a home renovation. **★★★★★ — mickdeb, Sept. 2013** > I built my home with Siena Custom Builders in 2009. I cannot say enough about the quality and craftsmanship of my home. Siena wrote the book on a streamlined carefree building process which puts the customer first. It is very evident that Siena treats their trades well as they are always on time and courteous to the home owner. I feel Siena did a fantastic job in guiding us through the process and providing input and ideas that proved to be very important to our project. Their creativity and pride in their work shows through in all the details. Our project was complete the day we were told it would be. This was such a piece of mind when trying to coordinate a move. Our pricing was accurate and we had no surprises. I would build again with Siena again in a heartbeat. Thank you for my beautiful home! **★★★★★ — tinagilvydis, Sept. 2013** > Our family's experience with Siena Custom Builders was outstanding. From start to finish, building our home with them was a positive experience. > We had 2 young children, and a 3rd on the way when we started the process of building a home with Siena. I was concerned that it would be a long and difficult process. However, it turned out to be a smooth & efficient one. We felt as though every detail was attended to, and that our utmost satisfaction was a priority. The quality of the materials used, and the labor put in was top notch. We were kept up to date during the building process, and the communication between builder and client was excellent. The home was completed on time, and the end product was exactly what we wanted. We highly recommend Siena Custom Builders to anyone looking to build a new home, or renovate an existing home. **★★★★★ — jjccjc, Sept. 2013** > Working with Siena was a wonderful experience. We are very appreciative of their expertise and quality of our home. They are exceptional people to build a home with. > > > We would highly recommend them to any one looking for a builder . **★★★★★ — lboscarino, Sept. 2013** > Siena stands alone in a sea of builders. Darin, the owner, is extremely conscientious. He is the only builder I've seen who regularly finishes his stunning, solid custom homes when promised. The materials he uses are second to none. All of Siena's subcontractors are highly skilled craftsmen. Not only is Darin involved with every aspect from architectural plans to framing to design, he continues to be available to the homeowners LONG after the house is completed. Sherry, Darin's trusty consultant, is fun and organized. Both are always available and on top of each phase of building. It is rare that one can recommend a company without reservation, but with Siena, that is a no-brainer. They are simply the best at what they do. They are honest, up-front, creative and trustworthy. Not only do those who build with them get the highest quality home possible, they are able to relax and truly enjoy the process because they know they don't have to worry about a thing. When all is said and done, anyone who builds with Siena will undoubtedly be able to adore their dream home for a lifetime. ## Selected projects - [Naperville Favorite](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/naperville-favorite-pj-vj~319367) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 15 - [Barley](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/barley-pj-vj~323908) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Vacationing at Home in Naperville](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/vacationing-at-home-in-naperville-pj-vj~319353) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 12 - [Bayberry Lane](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bayberry-lane-pj-vj~319381) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Cress Creek](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cress-creek-pj-vj~319535) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 10 - [Downtown Naperville Yet Off the Beaten Path](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/downtown-naperville-yet-off-the-beaten-path-pj-vj~319407) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Lovely Renovations](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lovely-renovations-pj-vj~319375) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [Prairie Path](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/prairie-path-pj-vj~320042) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Live Downtown Naperville Tour](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/live-downtown-naperville-tour-pj-vj~327421) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [Wheaton Farnham](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/wheaton-farnham-pj-vj~320017) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Wright](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/wright-pj-vj~327439) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Laird](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/laird-pj-vj~5959687) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 15 - [Corner Transitional Farmhouse](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/corner-transitional-farmhouse-pj-vj~5896740) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 11 - [Fremont 3](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fremont-3-pj-vj~5356302) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 20 - [Cress Creek Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cress-creek-renovation-pj-vj~3338135) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 2 - [Fremont](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fremont-pj-vj~932129) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Dream Home on Wright](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dream-home-on-wright-pj-vj~2122202) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Bauer Transitional](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bauer-transitional-pj-vj~1112135) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Tanglewood](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/tanglewood-pj-vj~1380109) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Bluegrass Living](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bluegrass-living-pj-vj~356777) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 [See all 20 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/design-build-firms/siena-custom-builders-inc-pfvwus-pf~1007189981) ## Ideabooks - [sienacustom's ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/21745312/list/sienacustom-s-ideas) — 50 ideas - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/123284698/list/wish-list) — 2 ideas [See all 2 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/sienacustom) ## Community Q&A **Q: How many sq ft is this home?** *(in Photo Questions)* Can we buy plan from you on this if you don’t build in Oklahoma? A: Thank you for your interest in our home. We are a custom home builder so each home is specifically designed for our clients or property and therefore we do not sell or share our floor plans. This home is deceivingly large - it is over 6,000 sq.ft. not including the finished basement. The garage is in the rear of the home with a soprtcourt over it. Our suggestion is to use this photo as inspiration and work with a local builder/architect team to design a home that fits your property, family needs and budget. Best Wishes as you work on your new home! **Q: what color are the walls** *(in Photo Questions)* Color of walls?? A: The wall color in this primary bathroom is Benjamin Moore Balboa Mist **Q: Beautiful home. What are the exterior colors used?** *(in Photo Questions)* What are the exterior colors and materials on this home? I love the calm and relaxing look it has. A: Our talented homeowner selected this pretty combination: The batten board and siding matched to SW 7073 Network, the shutters matched to SW 7674 Peppercorn, and the trim color matched to SW 6252 Ice Cube. The siding and trim are cedar so the materials used were solid stains. **Q: Is that 6" siding or 5"?** *(in Photo Questions)* Love the look! Wondering how wide the siding planks are. And are they vinyl or hardi? A: We built this home in 2007 and the siding was 6" and it is real cedar siding. **Q: What is the flooring material?** *(in Photo Questions)* And could you tell me which part of the country this is installed in? Thanks A: This is IPE and the home is located in Naperville IL. This photo is one year after construction. The color will continue to change over time. **Q: Love this bath! Do you have the wall color?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: We used (the very popular:) Benjamin Moore Metropolitan --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-15.*
