Wayzata
Lake Minnetonka's premier exterior specialists
Modex serves Wayzata's most distinctive neighborhoods—Bracketts Point, Ferndale, Wayzata Bay, and the historic downtown district. Our crews understand the architectural character of early-1900s lakeside estates, modern peninsula compounds, and the City of Wayzata's shoreline review board requirements that govern all lake-facing exterior work. We carry the same review-board process across the lake to Orono's HOAs on the northwest shore.
Bracketts Point
One of Minnesota's most exclusive peninsula addresses. Custom homes and estates on Bracketts Point demand period-correct materials and meticulous shoreline review board coordination before any exterior permit is issued.

Materials
Premium materials are the standard
Wayzata projects don't start with basic asphalt shingles or vinyl windows. Our crews default to CertainTeed Presidential Shake, DaVinci synthetic slate, James Hardie ColorPlus, and Kolbe Heritage—the materials that belong on Bracketts Point and Ferndale estates.
Synthetic slate
DaVinci Bellaforté and Davinci Bellaforté Slate offer the weight, texture, and longevity of natural slate without the structural load. Perfect for Bracketts Point peninsula compounds and Ferndale historic restorations.
Standing seam metal
Copper and painted metal standing seam roofing ages beautifully on lake homes. Our crews handle custom flashing, valleys, and trim details that define premium work.
James Hardie ColorPlus
Fiber cement siding with factory-applied color holds up to Minnesota winters and lake-corridor humidity. No paint maintenance for 15+ years.
Kolbe Heritage windows
Solid wood frames with period-correct muntin patterns for historic Ferndale homes. Triple-glazed, thermally broken, and built to last 50+ years.
