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.
Most Roseville homes need more than a coat of paint: they need a full exterior overhaul that addresses aging materials, energy loss, and curb appeal in one project. That's exactly the kind of work we handle every season across this city.

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.

Modernizing Postwar Exteriors
Roseville's housing stock tells a specific story. The city saw explosive growth in the late 1940s through the 1960s, and a huge share of homes still carry original hardboard siding, single-pane windows, and minimal exterior trim. Many of these homes sit on relatively flat lots with mature tree canopy, which means moisture stays trapped against walls longer than it would on a hilltop site. That combination of old materials and persistent dampness creates rot, mold behind cladding, and paint failure that no amount of maintenance can outrun.
When our crews strip siding on a 1955 rambler in Roseville, we commonly find no house wrap, no rigid foam, and sometimes just tar paper stapled over bare sheathing. Our process starts with a full sheathing inspection. We replace damaged OSB or plywood, install a modern weather-resistive barrier, and then apply new cladding. Roseville requires building permits for siding and window replacement, and our project managers handle the city's permitting and inspection process so you don't have to chase paperwork. The result is a home that looks like it belongs in 2026 but is built to handle another 50 Minnesota winters.

Energy Retrofits Behind New Cladding
Stripping old siding creates a one-time opportunity to fix what's behind it, and we take full advantage. On a typical Roseville project, we add continuous rigid insulation (usually 1" to 1.5" of polyiso or EPS) over the sheathing before new cladding goes on. This breaks the thermal bridging through studs that bleeds heat all winter. For homes with 2x4 wall framing and fiberglass batts, which describes most of Roseville's postwar stock, this single addition can cut wall heat loss by 20-30%.
We also address air sealing at band joists, window rough openings, and penetrations for hose bibs and electrical. Our crews tape and seal the weather barrier at every seam rather than relying on gravity laps alone. Roseville homeowners can sometimes offset part of this cost through local housing improvement programs and energy assistance, and we help clients identify what's available before we finalize the scope. The energy retrofit adds roughly 10-15% to the project cost but pays back through lower heating bills within five to seven years, which is a trade-off that makes sense for anyone planning to stay in their home.

Why Homeowners Hire NorBrook Construction
We carry Minnesota residential building contractor license BC80875, which you can verify through the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry's online lookup. For Roseville homes built before 1978, we hold EPA lead-safe certification LFC-281, a federal requirement for disturbing painted surfaces on older structures. Our co-founder Seth Norling is OSHA 30 trained, and that safety-first mindset runs through every jobsite we operate.
NorBrook was founded by brothers Robb and Seth Norling alongside Charlie Brookins. We're based in Maple Plain and work across the western and northern metro, with Roseville falling squarely in our regular service area. Every project gets a dedicated project manager who provides daily or weekly updates depending on the phase of work. You won't wonder what's happening at your house while you're at work. If you want to talk scope before anything else, call us at 763-237-5114.

Your Options Compared, and What We Recommend
| Material | Installed Cost (per sq ft) | Lifespan | Maintenance | NorBrook Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vinyl Siding | $4 - $8 | 20-30 years | Low: wash annually | Good budget option; choose insulated-back vinyl for better performance |
| Fiber Cement (e.g., HardiPlank) | $8 - $14 | 40-50 years | Repaint every 10-15 years | Our default pick for most Roseville homes: handles freeze-thaw, holds paint well |
| Engineered Wood (LP SmartSide) | $6 - $11 | 30-40 years | Repaint every 8-12 years | Strong option if you want a real-wood look at lower cost than fiber cement |
| Steel Entry Door | $2,000 - $4,500 installed | 30+ years | Minimal | High ROI: steel door replacements return roughly 119% of their cost in the Minneapolis region |
| Garage Door Replacement | $4,000 - $8,500 installed | 20-30 years | Lubricate annually | Best single ROI move: garage door replacements return 140.1% in our market |
For most Roseville projects, we recommend fiber cement siding paired with a steel entry door and, if the budget allows, a new insulated garage door. That combination addresses durability, energy performance, and resale value all at once. The garage door swap alone often pays for itself if you sell within a few years.

Common Questions Before Hiring NorBrook in Roseville, MN
How much does a full exterior remodel cost in Roseville?
Most whole-house siding and trim projects we complete in Roseville fall between $25,000 and $65,000, depending on the home's size, material choice, and whether we're adding insulation or replacing windows at the same time. Your written estimate from us will confirm the exact number before any work begins.
How long will the project take?
A typical siding replacement on a Roseville rambler or split-level takes two to four weeks of on-site work. Larger homes or projects that include window replacements can stretch to five or six weeks. Weather delays in spring and fall are possible, and we build that buffer into our schedule.
Do you handle permits in Roseville?
Yes. Our project manager pulls the necessary building permits through the City of Roseville and coordinates inspections. You sign the application, but we manage the process.
What happens at the first appointment?
One of our project managers visits your home, walks the exterior with you, takes measurements and photos, and discusses your goals and budget range. Within about a week, you'll receive a detailed written estimate with material specs, a projected timeline, and a clear scope of work.
Are you licensed to work on pre-1978 homes?
Absolutely. Our EPA lead-safe certification (LFC-281) covers renovation work on homes built before 1978, which includes a large portion of Roseville's housing. We follow all federal lead-safe work practices during demolition and siding removal.
Do you offer warranties?
We provide a workmanship warranty on our labor, and all materials carry their manufacturer's warranty. The specifics are spelled out in your contract before we start. Remodeling activity across Minnesota has been building momentum steadily, and homeowners are rightly asking tougher warranty questions: we welcome that.

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.
