Roofing, Siding & Windows in Mound, 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 the west bays of Lake Minnetonka year-round.
Mound and the west bays are regular territory for my crews
My shop's in Eden Prairie, about 30 minutes from Mound, and the western bays of Lake Minnetonka are a regular stop — the drive comes out of my pocket, not your quote. Crew lead on your property within 24 to 48 hours.
I know the housing stock here. Three Points and Island Park are full of old lake cottages that got winterized into year-round homes — charming, but on their third or fourth roof and often hiding tired decking. Around the Highlands and inland off Commerce Boulevard you've got mid-century ramblers, and out on Cooks Bay and Harrison Bay there are newer lakeside customs that call for architectural shingle, synthetic slate, or standing seam. The lake exposure is the common thread — wind, ice, and spray are hard on roofs and lake-facing siding alike. I quote each home for what it actually is.

Roof Replacement
CertainTeed and Malarkey certified installs. Most Mound roofs land $14K–$30K; the Cooks Bay and Harrison Bay lake customs run higher into Presidential Shake TL, synthetic slate, or standing seam. Deck-repair allowance quoted upfront on the converted Three Points cottages — billed only if it fails.
Siding
LP SmartSide and James Hardie installs built for the wind-and-spray off Lake Minnetonka. I quote both side-by-side so you see the cost gap. The lake-facing cedar and chalking aluminum around Island Park is most of what I replace here.
Windows
Kolbe, Pella, and ProVia — the brands I'd put in my own house. Value vinyl $1,400–$2,500 a window; architectural lines $2,500–$6,000 for the lake customs. The converted cottages are full of fogged, drafty original glass that runs up the winter bills.
Storm Damage & Insurance
Open water off Lake Minnetonka adds wind exposure on top of the metro's hail. 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.
Gutters & Guards
Seamless gutter repair and MasterShield guard installs for the heavily-treed lake lots. 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 west-metro commercial 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 Mound 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.
Lake-facing siding replaced · cedar to LP SmartSide
Mound · 2026 · LP SmartSide
The Cooks Bay side of an Island Park home had cedar that the wind and spray had chewed up. We replaced it with LP SmartSide engineered wood — same warm look, built to take the lake exposure and hold paint for decades.
Three Points cottage re-roof · deck repair, billed honestly
Mound · 2026 · CertainTeed Landmark Pro
A converted cottage had soft decking from decades of lake winters. I quoted a deck allowance upfront, replaced only the boards that actually failed, and added proper ventilation so the ice dams stop coming back.

The questions I actually get asked in Mound kitchens
How much does a roof replacement cost in Mound in 2026?
Most Mound asphalt roof replacements run $14,000 to $30,000 in 2026 (CertainTeed Landmark Pro, Malarkey, Atlas). The Lake Minnetonka customs on Cooks Bay and Harrison Bay run higher — Presidential Shake TL, synthetic slate, or standing seam land $25,000 to $65,000+. A lot of the converted lake cottages around Three Points and Island Park hide tired decking under the old shingles, so I quote a deck-repair allowance upfront and bill only what fails.
Do you do free roof inspections in Mound?
Yes. I get a crew lead out within 24 to 48 hours. My shop is in Eden Prairie, roughly 30 minutes from Mound, and the west-lake bays are regular territory — 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.
Do you replace siding in Mound, including on the older lake homes?
Yes — siding is a big part of what I do in Mound. The wind-and-spray exposure off Lake Minnetonka is hard on the older cedar and chalking aluminum, especially on the lake-facing elevations around Three Points and Island Park. I install LP SmartSide engineered wood ($22,000–$50,000 on a typical Mound home) and James Hardie fiber cement ($35,000–$75,000) — both hold paint through the freeze-thaw and don't shatter at -20°F. Storm-pulled runs often roll into the same insurance claim as the roof.
Do you replace windows in Mound?
Yes. A lot of the converted lake cottages and mid-century homes still run original single-pane or fogged double-pane glass — drafts, condensation between the panes, high winter bills on the lake side. I install ProVia, Kolbe, and Pella, from value vinyl ($1,400–$2,500/window) up to architectural lines for the Lake Minnetonka customs ($2,500–$6,000/window). I spec the right line for the home and its lake exposure, not the brand with the deepest kickback.
Do you handle Mound storm and hail insurance claims?
Yes. The west metro and the 55364 ZIP take hail and straight-line wind most summers, and the open water off Lake Minnetonka adds wind exposure. 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.
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Mound?
Yes. The City of Mound requires a building permit for roof replacement, and lakeshore properties sometimes carry extra shoreline or setback considerations. I pull every permit before my crews start and fold the fee into the line-item quote — you're not chasing it down.
