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.
Most Bloomington homeowners pay in the neighborhood of $13,000 to $15,000 for a full roof replacement, and a huge chunk of the calls we field are from people who've already gotten a quote but want to talk to a crew that actually knows their neighborhood. If you're looking for a contractor who understands the specific housing stock and weather patterns in this part of the metro, that's the conversation we want to have.

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.

Postwar Rambler Re-Roofs East of France Avenue
The neighborhoods between France Avenue and Portland Avenue are packed with ramblers and split-levels built from the late 1940s through the mid-1960s. These homes share a few traits that directly affect how we plan a re-roof. Low-slope sections over attached garages are common, and they often have two or three layers of shingles stacked up from previous re-covers. Bloomington's permit process requires a tear-off once you hit two layers, and our crews strip everything to the deck so we can inspect the sheathing for rot or delamination before a single new shingle goes on.
Homes built before 1978 may contain lead-based paint on fascia and soffits, which is why our EPA lead-safe certification (LFC-281) matters here. We follow containment protocols during tear-off to keep debris away from soil and landscaping. The lot sizes in these older sections tend to be tight, so staging dumpsters and material deliveries takes real planning: we coordinate placement the day before work starts so we're not blocking driveways or damaging boulevard trees. Bloomington requires building permits for roof replacements, and we pull them ourselves rather than leaving that responsibility on you.
Every household is different, so we start with what you actually own and who counts on you, then build coverage around it.

Newer West-Side Stock in Bloomington, MN
Head west of I-35W toward Bush Lake and the housing shifts dramatically. You'll find two-story colonials and contemporary designs from the 1990s and 2000s, many with steeper pitches, architectural details like dormers and valleys, and composite or engineered wood trim. These roofs present different challenges than the flat, simple planes of a rambler.
Steep pitches mean more safety rigging and slower progress per square, which affects both crew size and schedule. Our OSHA 30-trained leadership under co-founder Seth Norling sets the safety plan for every job, and we don't cut corners on harnesses or scaffolding to speed things up. The newer stock also tends to have ridge vents and soffit intake systems that were sometimes installed incorrectly during the original build. We check intake-to-exhaust balance during every inspection and correct it during the re-roof at no extra charge. The roofing outlook for 2026 points to continued demand in suburban markets like Bloomington, so scheduling early in the season helps lock in your preferred timeline.

What warranty do I get?
What happens at the first appointment?
| Material | Typical Lifespan | Cost Range (per sq. ft. installed) | Wind Rating | NorBrook Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Tab Asphalt | 15-20 years | $3.50 - $4.50 | 60 mph | Budget option only; we rarely recommend it for Minnesota's climate |
| Architectural Asphalt | 25-30 years | $4.50 - $6.50 | 110-130 mph | Our default for most Bloomington homes: best value and durability balance |
| Synthetic Slate/Shake | 40-50 years | $8.00 - $12.00 | 110+ mph | Great for homeowners who want the look without the weight or maintenance |
| Standing Seam Metal | 40-60 years | $10.00 - $16.00 | 140+ mph | Best for low-slope sections and homeowners planning to stay long-term |
Your Options Compared, and What We Recommend
| Material | Typical Lifespan | Cost Range (per sq. ft. installed) | Wind Rating | NorBrook Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Tab Asphalt | 15-20 years | $3.50 - $4.50 | 60 mph | Budget option only; we rarely recommend it for Minnesota's climate |
| Architectural Asphalt | 25-30 years | $4.50 - $6.50 | 110-130 mph | Our default for most Bloomington homes: best value and durability balance |

| Standing Seam Metal | 40-60 years | $10.00 - $16.00 | 140+ mph | Best for low-slope sections and homeowners planning to stay long-term |
For most Bloomington projects, we recommend architectural asphalt shingles. A standard replacement on a 2,000 sq. ft. home in Bloomington averages roughly $13,300 with this material, and it handles Minnesota's freeze-thaw cycles, hail exposure, and wind loads well. If your home has a low-slope garage section, we often pair architectural shingles on the main roof with a standing seam metal panel on the low slope for long-term leak prevention.

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 Bloomington, MN
How much does a roof replacement in Bloomington cost?
Most of our Bloomington projects fall between $11,000 and $18,000 depending on roof size, pitch, material choice, and whether we find sheathing damage during tear-off. Your written estimate from us will confirm the exact number before any work begins.
How long will the job take?
A typical single-family re-roof takes two to four days of on-site work. Weather delays can stretch that, but our project manager communicates schedule changes the same day. We don't leave a partially stripped roof exposed overnight without temporary weatherproofing.
What warranty do I get?
You receive the shingle manufacturer's material warranty (typically 25-50 years depending on the product) plus our workmanship warranty covering installation. We walk through both documents with you at the pre-job meeting so there are no surprises.
Do I need to be home during the work?
No. Most homeowners go about their normal routine. We ask that cars be moved out of the driveway and that you secure pets. Your project manager sends photo updates throughout the day so you can see progress in real time.
Do you handle the permit and inspection?
Yes. We pull the Bloomington building permit, schedule the city inspection, and handle any corrections if the inspector flags something. That cost is included in your estimate. Bloomington's inspection requirements for exterior work are straightforward, and we know what the local inspectors look for.
What happens at the first appointment?
One of our project managers visits your home, inspects the roof from the ground and from on top, checks the attic for ventilation and moisture issues, and sits down with you to discuss options. You'll have a written estimate within 48 hours. No pressure, no same-day signing gimmicks.

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.
