Written scopes and line-item estimates before any work begins.
Yes. Our EPA lead-safe certification LFC-281 means we follow federal RRP (Renovation, Repair, and Painting) rules for containment, cleanup, and disposal on any home built before 1978. Many Maple Plain homes fall into that era, and we are equipped to handle them properly.
Common Questions Before Hiring NorBrook in Maple Plain, MN
How much does a full re-side cost in Maple Plain?
What warranty do I get?
What happens at the first appointment?
Do you work on homes with lead paint?
Do I need a permit for siding work?
Most full re-sides on a single-family home in Maple Plain take five to eight working days once materials arrive. Tear-off of old siding adds one to two days if the existing cladding is wood. Weather delays can push the schedule, and our project manager will communicate any changes the same day.
We provide a workmanship warranty on our labor, and the manufacturer's product warranty covers the material. Fiber cement products typically carry a 30-year non-prorated warranty, while vinyl varies by brand from 25 years to lifetime. We walk through warranty details at the estimate appointment so you know exactly what is covered.
Yes. The city of Maple Plain requires a building permit for a full re-side. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and handle the paperwork. You do not need to visit city hall.
One of our project managers visits your home, measures the exterior, inspects the existing siding condition, and discusses your material preferences. We take photos and notes, then deliver a written estimate within a few business days. There is no charge and no obligation.
How long does a siding project take?
For a standard rambler or split-level, our written estimates for vinyl typically fall between $8,000 and $13,000, and fiber cement runs $15,000 to $24,000. The exact number depends on wall area, trim details, and whether we need to address sheathing or moisture damage underneath. Your written estimate will confirm the price before any work begins.
Eden Prairie homeowners spend between $25,000 and $80,000 on full exterior remodels, depending on the scope and materials chosen. We're NorBrook Construction, and exterior remodeling in Eden Prairie is one of the projects we handle most often from our base in Maple Plain.
Exterior Remodeling in Eden Prairie, MN: What NorBrook Construction Does for You
We hold Minnesota residential building contractor license BC80875, and our crews perform siding replacement, roofing, window and door installations, soffit and fascia work, and full exterior overhauls across Eden Prairie. We do this work for homeowners who want a coordinated, single-contractor approach rather than juggling three or four separate trades. Our typical client owns a home that's hit the 20- to 35-year mark and needs more than a patch job: they need someone to assess the full envelope, sequence the work correctly, and keep the project on schedule. That's what we do. Whether you're protecting a long-term investment or preparing to sell in a market where median home prices have reached $524,714, the exterior is where value is won or lost.

Cities We Serve in the West Metro

We work throughout the following communities. [CONFIRM final list]
As a family-owned contractor, we know these neighborhoods: the lake homes around Minnetonka and Orono, the newer developments in Corcoran and Medina, and the established streets of Wayzata and Excelsior. That local knowledge shapes how we plan a project, from lot conditions and municipal review to the material choices that hold up in this climate.

Whole-Exterior Packages on Maturing Stock
Most of the homes we work on in Eden Prairie were built between the late 1980s and early 2000s. That generation of construction used a lot of hardboard siding, builder-grade vinyl, and asphalt shingles with 25-year warranties that expired years ago. The housing stock in neighborhoods like Bryant Lake, Hennepin Village, and the older sections near Purgatory Creek is hitting the point where piecemeal repairs stop making financial sense.
Our crews approach these projects envelope-first. We strip the old siding, inspect the sheathing and housewrap for moisture damage (common on north-facing walls that take the worst of Minnesota's freeze-thaw cycles), and then install new weather-resistant barrier before any cladding goes on. Eden Prairie sits on rolling terrain with significant tree canopy, which means gutters, downspouts, and grading matter as much as the siding itself. We sequence roofing before siding so flashing details are correct at the transitions, and we pull the required city permits through Eden Prairie's building inspections department before any demo begins. The city enforces the 2020 Minnesota Residential Code, and our project managers handle the inspection scheduling so you don't have to chase it.
Every household is different, so we start with what you actually own and who counts on you, then build coverage around it.

Storm Coordination in Eden Prairie, MN
Hail and wind events hit the southwest metro hard, and Eden Prairie's exposure along the Minnesota River bluffs makes certain neighborhoods especially vulnerable. After a qualifying storm, we send our estimator to document damage with photos and measurements before you file a claim. We then work directly with your insurance adjuster, walking the property together to agree on scope.
Here's what that means for you: we don't inflate line items to pad a claim, and we don't lowball the scope to close fast. Our estimates match Xactimate pricing, which is the software most carriers use, so there's less back-and-forth. Once the claim is approved, we schedule the work in a sequence that protects your home from further exposure: roof first, then siding, then trim and paint. Eden Prairie's municipal sustainability goals also encourage responsible disposal, so we separate tear-off materials for recycling where possible. The entire process, from storm to final inspection, typically runs six to ten weeks depending on material lead times and adjuster availability.

Why Homeowners Hire NorBrook Construction
We carry Minnesota residential building contractor license BC80875, which you can verify yourself through the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry license lookup. We also hold EPA lead-safe certification LFC-281, required for any renovation work on homes built before 1978. A handful of Eden Prairie properties, particularly near the older downtown core, fall into that category.
Co-founder Seth Norling holds OSHA 30 certification, which means our job sites follow federal safety standards from day one. Robb Norling and Charlie Brookins round out the founding team, and between the three of them, every project gets direct leadership oversight. Every job we take on gets a dedicated project manager who provides daily or weekly updates depending on the phase. You'll always know what happened today and what's scheduled for tomorrow. If you'd rather pick up the phone than check an update, call us at 763-237-5114.

Your Options Compared, and What We Recommend
| Material/System | Lifespan | Cost per sq ft (installed) | Maintenance | NorBrook Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vinyl siding | 20-30 years | $4-$8 | Low: occasional wash | Good budget option for homes not facing resale soon |
| Fiber cement (e.g., HardiePlank) | 40-50 years | $8-$14 | Repaint every 10-15 years | Our default for most Eden Prairie projects: best value over time |
| Engineered wood (LP SmartSide) | 30-40 years | $6-$10 | Repaint every 8-12 years | Strong choice if you want a wood look without the rot risk |
| Natural wood (cedar) | 20-40 years | $10-$18 | Stain/seal every 3-5 years | Beautiful but high-maintenance: we recommend it only if you'll commit to upkeep |
| Metal panel | 50+ years | $12-$20 | Very low | Best for modern designs: less common in Eden Prairie's traditional neighborhoods |
For most Eden Prairie exterior remodeling projects, we recommend fiber cement siding paired with architectural shingles rated for Minnesota's climate zone. The combination gives you 40-plus years of performance, strong curb appeal, and a price point that pencils out well against the city's energy action benchmarks. That said, if budget is the primary driver, quality vinyl installed over proper housewrap still performs well in this climate.

Yes. We manage the full permitting process with the local building department, including structural, electrical, mechanical, and plumbing permits. Minnesota requires plan review for commercial and assembly-use buildings, and churches fall into assembly occupancy. We coordinate all inspections so your building committee doesn't have to chase paperwork.
What areas of Minnesota do you serve?
Absolutely. Many congregations already have an architect or denominational design guidelines. We collaborate with your architect through the design-build process, providing constructability input and value engineering to keep the project within budget. If you don't have an architect yet, we can recommend firms with church and educational facility experience in Minnesota.
Common Questions Before Hiring NorBrook in Eden Prairie, MN
How much does a full exterior remodel cost in Eden Prairie?
Most of our Eden Prairie projects land between $25,000 and $80,000. A siding-only job on a standard two-story home typically runs $18,000 to $35,000, while a full envelope project with roofing, siding, windows, and trim pushes higher. Your written estimate from us will confirm the exact number.
How long will the project take?
A full exterior remodel usually takes three to six weeks of on-site work, weather permitting. Siding-only projects often wrap in two to three weeks. We build weather contingency into every schedule because Minnesota doesn't cooperate on command.
What happens at the first appointment?
We walk the exterior of your home together, take measurements, note any damage or code concerns, and talk about what you want. You'll get a written estimate within a few business days, broken down by phase so you can see exactly where the money goes.
Do you handle permits?
Yes. We pull all required permits through Eden Prairie's building department and schedule the inspections. You don't need to visit city hall or coordinate with inspectors yourself.
Are you licensed and insured?
We hold MN contractor license BC80875 and carry full liability and workers' compensation insurance. We're also EPA lead-safe certified under LFC-281 for work on pre-1978 homes.
Do you work through insurance claims?
We do. We'll document the damage, meet with your adjuster, and align our estimate with the approved scope. We don't ask for payment beyond what the claim covers unless you choose to upgrade materials.
Every household is different, so we start with what you actually own and who counts on you, then build coverage around it.

What We Build
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Seth Norling
Vice President
I've spent more than 12 years in the construction industry, and I've built my career around one idea: a project runs best when it's planned well and managed closely. As Vice President at NorBrook Construction, I focus on project management, planning, and execution — making sure every build moves forward efficiently, stays on budget, and meets the highest standards from the first meeting to the final walkthrough.
My background is rooted in both education and hands-on experience. I'm a graduate of the University of Minnesota with a degree in Commercial Construction Management, and I've spent the years since delivering projects through strong leadership and close collaboration with clients, crews, and partners. I've learned that clear communication is what keeps a project on track and a client confident, so it's something I never leave to chance.
NorBrook is a family business, and that changes how we work. When my dad, Robb, and I take on a custom home, an exterior remodel, or a commercial build, we treat it like it's our own — because our name is on it. My goal on every project is a successful outcome for the client: work done right, delivered on time and on budget, and built to a standard we're proud to stand behind.
