Plymouth housing stock

What kind of homes does Modex work on in Plymouth?

Plymouth grew in three distinct waves. 1960s and 70s ramblers around Bass Lake and Medicine Lake. 1980s and 90s split-level and walkout builds through Plymouth Creek and Vicksburg Lane. 2000s-onward customs east of I-494. Common thread: Plymouth homes are roughly 30% larger by square footage than the metro median.

Bass Lake — 1960s and 70s ramblers

Plymouth's older inventory. Most on second or third roof cycle. Per-square quoting (typically 28–38 squares of roof on a Plymouth rambler vs 22–28 typical of older suburbs).

Medicine Lake — 1990s walkouts

Reaching replacement age. Upgrades from architectural-grade asphalt to Presidential Shake TL or DaVinci synthetic slate (we install, not Authorized). Class 4 impact-resistant adds 10–30% insurance discount.

Plymouth Creek + Vicksburg Lane corridor

2000s custom and infill. Larger square footage, complex rooflines, full-house window counts of 30+ on many properties. Coordinated single-contractor delivery on roof + siding + windows.

City of Plymouth Building Inspections: 3400 Plymouth Blvd, Plymouth MN 55447, (763) 509-5000. Permits required. We pull every Plymouth permit before crews start work.

Premium picks in Plymouth

The three premium materials Plymouth homeowners pick most

As 1990s walkouts age out, Plymouth homeowners increasingly upgrade past standard architectural asphalt. Three premium materials cover most of the Plymouth premium mix.

CertainTeed Presidential Shake TL

Heavier visual profile than standard architectural asphalt, Class 4 impact-resistant available, lifetime limited manufacturer warranty. Common on Bass Lake walkouts. Mid-$40K range on a typical Plymouth single-family.

DaVinci synthetic slate

Slate aesthetic without the structural-load problems of natural slate. 50-year material warranty, Class 4 impact-resistant. We install DaVinci — not an Authorized Dealer. Mid-$60K range on a typical Plymouth Medicine Lake walkout.

Standing seam metal

Premium durability and modern aesthetics for lake-view customs. 40–60 year service life. Common on Plymouth Creek and Vicksburg Lane custom builds with complex rooflines. $30K–$80K+ depending on roof area and panel profile.

Services + Plymouth pricing

What we install in Plymouth + typical price ranges

Roofing $16K–$80K+. Siding $22K–$55K. Windows $15K–$55K. Larger square footages drive Plymouth totals — we quote per-square so actual roof area drives the number.

Why Plymouth

Why Plymouth homeowners hire us

Plymouth homes are bigger, the rooflines are more complex, and the material choices skew premium as 1990s walkouts age out. Three reasons that combination ends up at our door.

Per-square pricing on larger Plymouth homes

Plymouth homes are larger than the suburban median. We quote per-square so the actual roof area drives the cost — typically 28–38 squares on a Plymouth single-family vs the 22–28 typical of smaller-home suburbs. No square-footage guessing, no surprise overage.

Premium-material certifications

CertainTeed Presidential Shake TL, DaVinci synthetic slate, standing seam metal — Plymouth homeowners increasingly choose premium as 1990s walkouts age out. We carry the manufacturer certifications required for warranty-eligible install on each.

Owner-led on premium projects

Joe personally signs off on every Plymouth install over $40,000 — common on the larger Bass Lake and Medicine Lake homes. One owner-led point of accountability through scope, materials, install, and warranty registration.

Two recent Plymouth installs. Bass Lake walkout roof and Plymouth Creek full-window replacement. Both projects walked by Joe.
