Bloomington housing stock

What kind of homes does Modex work on in Bloomington?

Bloomington breaks roughly into three waves. Post-WWII ramblers (late 1940s through early 1960s) across Brookside and West Bloomington. The 1970s and 80s split-level wave around Penn Lake and the Quaker Lane corridor. 2000s-onward customs along Auto Club Road and Anderson Lakes Parkway. Most Bloomington homes are on their third or fourth roof by 2026 — that older inventory drives a standard decking allowance on every quote.

Home icon

Brookside post-war ramblers

Late-1940s to early-1960s rambler boom. Most homes on third or fourth roof. Decking allowance quoted upfront — typically 5–15 sheets needed at eaves and valleys.

Cottage icon

West Bloomington insurance corridor

Post-war ranch and rambler south of 86th. Dozens of Bloomington insurance roofs ran through here after the June 2023 hail cycle. Never waive deductibles — illegal under MN 325E.66.

Villa icon

Quaker Lane corridor splits

1970s–80s split-level wave. Coordinated roof + siding + window refreshes land here often — one schedule, one quote, one warranty conversation.

House icon

Penn Lake customs + infill

Newer customs and 2010s–20s infill along Auto Club Road and Anderson Lakes Parkway. Full exterior refreshes in 3 calendar weeks on coordinated installs.

City of Bloomington Inspections office: 1800 W. Old Shakopee Rd, Bloomington MN 55431, (952) 563-8930. Permits required for roof replacements. We pull every Bloomington permit before crews start work.

Bloomington insurance work

June 2023 hail hit Bloomington — and we worked it

The June 2023 hail cycle put dozens of Bloomington insurance roofs through our crews across Brookside, West Bloomington, and Penn Lake. We document damage with on-roof photography, meet your insurance adjuster on the property when possible, and write scopes carriers can validate. We do not waive deductibles — illegal in Minnesota under MN Statute 325E.66.

Services + Bloomington pricing

Three core scopes. Roofing $14K–$70K+. Siding $20K–$50K. Windows $12K–$50K. Older Bloomington housing stock means a decking allowance is standard on every roof quote — billed actual, never flat.

Why Bloomington

Why do Bloomington homeowners choose Modex?

Older housing stock, multiple re-roof cycles, and a wide material spread between budget-conscious West Bloomington and premium Penn Lake customs. Three reasons that mix lands at our door.

Layers icon

Three-or-four-cycle re-roof expertise

Most Bloomington homes have been re-roofed multiple times. The fourth tear-off reveals deck conditions a first-cycle contractor never sees. We quote a decking allowance upfront, document deck condition at tear-off, and replace only what actually failed — not a flat percentage to pad the invoice.

Premium certification icon

Six manufacturer certifications

Most Bloomington contractors install a single shingle line. We carry five — CertainTeed ShingleMaster, Malarkey Emerald Pro Pro, Atlas Pro+, LP SmartSide Preferred, James Hardie Preferred — so the homeowner picks the material that fits the home and budget.

Verified user icon

Lifetime workmanship warranty

Industry norm on roofing workmanship is 5 to 10 years. Modex backs every Bloomington residential install for as long as you own the home — no asterisks, no fine print, no expiration date hidden in the contract.

Questions

Common questions from Bloomington homeowners about roofing, siding, and windows

Most Bloomington asphalt roof replacements run $14,000 to $32,000 in 2026. Bloomington's older housing stock means we typically include a decking allowance — most Bloomington homes need 5–15 sheets of decking replaced at tear-off. We bill the actual replacement, not a padded flat percentage. Premium materials run $25,000 to $70,000+.

Yes. A Modex crew lead visits your property within 2 to 5 business days of your call. We photograph the actual condition, walk the roof when safe, and email a written line-item quote within 48 hours. No charge, no pressure.

Yes. The City of Bloomington requires a building permit for roof replacement. The Building & Inspections Division is at 1800 West Old Shakopee Road, (952) 563-8930, with online permitting at blm.mn/portal. Modex pulls every permit before crews start and includes the fee in your quote.

Storm season lead times are typically 2 to 4 weeks for residential roofs. Shoulder seasons we can sometimes start within 7 to 10 days. Insurance jobs follow the adjuster timeline, usually 3 to 6 weeks from claim approval to installation start.

Yes. Bloomington took heavy hail damage in June 2023 across Brookside, West Bloomington, and Penn Lake. We document damage with on-roof photography, meet adjusters on-site, and write scopes carriers validate. We do not waive deductibles, as Minnesota Statute 325E.66 prohibits it.

We do. A lot of Bloomington's 1950s–60s ramblers and split-levels around Oak Grove, Penn Lake, and West Bloomington still wear original cedar, chalking aluminum, or brittle early vinyl. I install LP SmartSide engineered wood ($20,000–$45,000 on a typical Bloomington home) and James Hardie fiber cement ($30,000–$65,000) — both hold color for decades and handle Minnesota freeze-thaw far better than what they replace. I carry vinyl on request, but for most Bloomington homes I lead with LP or Hardie and walk you through the cost gap honestly.

Yes. Most post-war Bloomington homes are still running original single-pane or fogged first-generation double-pane windows — drafts, condensation between the glass, and high winter bills. I install ProVia, Kolbe, and Pella, from value vinyl ($1,400–$2,500/window) up to architectural lines for the larger river-bluff and Bush Lake homes ($2,500–$6,000/window). Most Bloomington homes run 12 to 18 windows. I'll spec the right line for the home, not the brand with the deepest kickback.
