Roofing, Siding & Windows in Lakeville, Minnesota
Owner-led and manufacturer-certified, with a lifetime workmanship warranty on every install. I run Modern Exterior Systems out of Eden Prairie and work Lakeville and the south metro year-round.
Lakeville is regular south-metro territory for my crews
My shop's in Eden Prairie, about 30 minutes from Lakeville down 35 — regular territory, and the drive comes out of my pocket, not your quote. Crew lead on your property within 24 to 48 hours.
Lakeville is one of the fastest-growing cities in the state, and it shows in the housing stock. The big newer subdivisions — Spirit of Brandtjen Farm, the developments around Lake Marion and Lake Crystal — are hitting their FIRST roof and window replacements now, often on builder-grade materials that aged out early. Closer to historic downtown and Orchard Lake you've got older homes with real cedar and aging aluminum. Different homes, different scopes — I quote each one for what it actually is, and I'll tell you straight when a builder-grade roof failed early because of ventilation, not just age.

Roof Replacement
CertainTeed and Malarkey certified installs. Most Lakeville roofs land $14K–$30K; the bigger SBF and Lake Marion two-stories run higher into Presidential Shake TL, synthetic slate, or standing seam. A lot of Lakeville's first-generation builder roofs are aging out early — I'll tell you if it's wear, ventilation, or a storm claim.
Storm Damage & Insurance
The 55044 ZIP takes hail and straight-line wind most summers. I've walked south-metro storm roofs for 20+ years — on-roof photos, a real scope, and I'll meet your adjuster on-site. We don't waive deductibles; that's illegal in Minnesota under Statute 325E.66.
Windows
Kolbe, Pella, and ProVia — the brands I'd put in my own house, not the deepest-kickback line. Value vinyl $1,400–$2,500 a window; architectural lines $2,500–$6,000. Builder-grade vinyl in the newer subdivisions and fogged glass downtown are most of my Lakeville calls.
Siding
LP SmartSide and James Hardie installs that hold paint through Minnesota freeze-thaw and don't shatter at -20°F. I quote both side-by-side so you see the cost gap. Aging cedar near downtown and tired builder vinyl in the subdivisions are most of what I replace here.
Gutters & Guards
Seamless gutter repair and MasterShield guard installs. I'll tell you honestly when a reseal beats a full replacement — most repairs run $150–$2,500 by scope.
Commercial Roofing
Reroof, maintenance, and repair for Lakeville-area commercial and Airlake-district buildings — flat membrane (TPO, EPDM, mod-bit) and metal. Manufacturer-backed warranty plus a 10-year workmanship warranty. Honest condition reports, not rip-and-replace by default.
Three things I'll do that most Twin Cities contractors won't
Lifetime workmanship warranty
Most contractors give you 5 or 10 years on the install. I back ours for the lifetime of the roof. If it leaks in year 12 because of how we nailed it, we fix it on our dime — by then most outfits are gone or telling you it's your problem.
No door-knocking. No pressure.
No storm-chasing your street, no same-day-close playbook. I'll measure your Lakeville project, write a line-item quote, and leave. Go get two more quotes — I'd rather you compare than feel rushed into a roof you didn't have time to think about.
Manufacturer-certified install
CertainTeed ShingleMaster, Malarkey Emerald, Atlas Pro+ Silver Select, LP SmartSide, James Hardie Preferred. That cert depth lets me register warranties most contractors can't — and it's verified, not a logo I pasted on.
Builder-grade roof aged out at 18 years · ventilation fixed
Lakeville · 2026 · CertainTeed Landmark Pro
An SBF-area two-story had a curling builder roof and an attic that never breathed. We replaced it with Landmark Pro and added proper intake-and-ridge ventilation so the next one lasts its full life.
Hail claim · roof + screens approved in one scope
Lakeville · 2026 · ProVia + Storm Claim
Hail bruised the roof and tore screens on a Lake Marion home. I documented all of it, met the adjuster, and the carrier approved the full scope. One deductible, no waived-deductible games.

The questions I actually get asked in Lakeville kitchens
How much does a roof replacement cost in Lakeville in 2026?
Most Lakeville asphalt roof replacements run $14,000 to $30,000 in 2026 (CertainTeed Landmark Pro, Malarkey, Atlas). A lot of Lakeville is newer construction hitting its FIRST replacement, and those bigger Spirit of Brandtjen Farm and Lake Marion two-stories run higher — premium materials like Presidential Shake TL, synthetic slate, or standing seam land $25,000 to $65,000+. If your builder-grade roof is failing early, that's often a ventilation or builder-defect story I'll walk you through on the inspection.
Do you do free roof inspections in Lakeville?
Yes. I get a crew lead out within 24 to 48 hours. My shop is in Eden Prairie, about 30 minutes from Lakeville down 35 — regular territory, and the drive is on me, not your quote. We walk the roof when it's safe, photograph the actual condition, and email a written line-item quote within 48 hours. No high-pressure follow-up.
My Lakeville home is fairly new — why would the roof already be failing?
It's common here. A lot of Lakeville's 2000s–2010s subdivisions went up fast with builder-grade 3-tab or entry-level architectural shingles and marginal attic ventilation. Twenty years of Minnesota sun and ice cycles later, those roofs are aging out early. On the inspection I'll show you whether it's normal wear, a ventilation problem, or storm damage worth an insurance claim — and quote the fix line by line.
Do you handle Lakeville storm and hail insurance claims?
Yes. The 55044 ZIP takes hail and straight-line wind most summers. I document damage with on-roof photography, meet your insurance adjuster on the property when I can, and write scopes carriers can actually validate. I won't waive your deductible — that's illegal in Minnesota under MN Statute 325E.66, and any contractor who offers to is showing you how they cut corners.
Do you replace windows and siding in Lakeville?
Yes. The older homes near downtown Lakeville and Orchard Lake run aging cedar, chalking aluminum, and fogged glass; the newer subdivisions sometimes need builder-grade vinyl siding and windows upgraded. I install ProVia, Kolbe, and Pella windows ($1,400–$2,500/window value vinyl up to $2,500–$6,000 architectural) and LP SmartSide ($22,000–$50,000) or James Hardie ($35,000–$75,000) siding — both hold paint through Minnesota freeze-thaw and don't shatter at -20°F.
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Lakeville?
Yes. The City of Lakeville requires a building permit for roof replacement. I pull every Lakeville permit before my crews start and fold the fee into the line-item quote — you're not chasing it down yourself.
