Building a custom home in Edina is a significant investment, and the city's particular mix of zoning rules, teardown activity, and premium lot values makes choosing the right builder a decision that shapes the next twenty years of your life.
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.

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.

First Exterior Refreshes as Early-2000s Stock Matures
Rogers grew fast between roughly 2000 and 2010. Many of the subdivisions built during that stretch used vinyl siding, builder-grade double-hung windows, and three-tab asphalt shingles, all products with a 20- to 25-year expected lifespan. Those homes are now due for their first full exterior refresh, and our crews see the same patterns on nearly every job: chalking and warping on south-facing vinyl panels, failed window seals causing fogging, and granule loss on original roofing.
We typically sequence these projects roof-first, then windows, then siding and trim. That order matters because flashing details tie together, and replacing siding before the roof means our crews would need to re-cut J-channel and drip edge twice. Rogers sits on relatively flat terrain with limited tree cover in many of the newer developments, which means wind exposure is real. We spec LP SmartSide or fiber cement for homeowners who want a step up from vinyl, and we factor in Hennepin County permit requirements for any structural changes to soffits or load-bearing headers around windows. Manufactured stone veneer is a popular upgrade here: it can deliver over 200% ROI on resale, which makes it one of the smartest exterior investments a Rogers homeowner can make.

Storm Damage Response in Rogers, MN
Hail and straight-line winds hit Rogers hard. The city sits in an active corridor for summer convective storms, and we've responded to multiple events in the last few years that left entire streets needing roof and siding replacement. When a storm rolls through, our process starts with a free damage inspection within 48 hours of your call. We document every impact mark, cracked panel, and dented gutter with photos and measurements that your insurance adjuster can work from directly.
Here's what that means for you: we handle the back-and-forth with your carrier so you're not stuck interpreting policy language on your own. Our project managers coordinate the scope of work, match it to the adjuster's line items, and flag any supplemental damage that the initial estimate missed. We don't ask for money up front on insurance claims. The work gets scheduled as soon as the claim is approved, and we carry the materials cost until the check arrives. Our crews can turn around a full roof and siding replacement in five to seven working days on a typical Rogers home, weather permitting. That speed matters when a tarp is the only thing between your attic and the next rainstorm.

Why Homeowners Hire NorBrook Construction
We earn the work on credentials, not promises. Our Minnesota residential building contractor license is BC80875, verifiable through the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry's online lookup. We hold EPA lead-safe certification LFC-281, which is required for renovation work on any home built before 1978. Co-founder Seth Norling carries OSHA 30 safety certification, and that training standard filters down to every crew member on site.
NorBrook was founded by brothers Robb and Seth Norling alongside Charlie Brookins. We're based in Maple Plain, about 25 minutes from most Rogers neighborhoods, which means we're local enough to be on-site the same day if something needs attention. Every project gets a dedicated project manager who provides daily or weekly updates depending on the scope. You'll always know what happened today and what's scheduled for tomorrow. If you'd rather talk to a person than fill out a form, call us at 763-237-5114.

Your Options Compared, and What We Recommend
| Material/System | Typical Cost (per sq ft installed) | Lifespan | Maintenance | NorBrook Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vinyl Siding | $4 - $7 | 20 - 30 years | Low; can warp or chalk | Good budget option, but we steer clients toward insulated vinyl if going this route |
| LP SmartSide | $7 - $11 | 30+ years | Repaint every 10 - 15 years | Our default pick for most Rogers projects: strong hail resistance, paintable, good value |
| Fiber Cement (HardiePlank) | $9 - $14 | 40+ years | Repaint every 12 - 15 years | Best long-term durability, but higher install cost and heavier weight |
| Manufactured Stone Veneer | $12 - $25 (accent areas) | 50+ years | Minimal | Excellent as a partial accent; one of the highest-ROI exterior upgrades available |
For most Rogers homes, we recommend LP SmartSide as the primary siding with manufactured stone veneer accents on the front elevation. That combination gives you strong wind and hail performance, a clean look that satisfies most HOA guidelines, and a price point that doesn't blow past the value the home can support on resale. The catch is that LP SmartSide does need repainting eventually, so if you want zero maintenance, fiber cement edges it out.

Common Questions Before Hiring NorBrook in Rogers, MN
How much does an exterior remodel cost in Rogers?
A full siding and trim replacement on a typical 2,000-square-foot Rogers home runs between $18,000 and $38,000 depending on material choice. Add $12,000 to $22,000 if the roof is included. Your written estimate from us will confirm exact numbers after we measure and discuss material preferences.
How long will the project take?
Most siding-only projects take 7 to 12 working days. A combined roof and siding job runs 10 to 18 days. Weather delays can push timelines in spring and fall, and your project manager will keep you updated if anything shifts.
Do I need a permit in Rogers?
Yes, for most exterior work beyond simple like-for-like repairs. We pull the permits through the city of Rogers building department and schedule the required inspections. That cost is included in our estimate.
What happens at the first appointment?
We walk the exterior of your home together, take measurements, photograph existing conditions, and talk through what you want to change. You'll get a written estimate within a few days. There's no pressure and no cost for the visit.
Does NorBrook handle insurance claims?
We do. Our project managers work directly with your adjuster, provide documentation in the format carriers expect, and identify supplemental damage that often gets missed in initial inspections.
What warranty do I get?
Material warranties vary by manufacturer, typically 30 to 50 years on siding products. We also provide a workmanship warranty on our installation. Specifics are outlined in your contract before we start.
Every household is different, so we start with what you actually own and who counts on you, then build coverage around it.

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.
