A Historic Stillwater Home Ready for a Modern Upgrade
A hailstorm gave this Stillwater, MN, homeowner the perfect excuse to transform their aging exterior. See how Wright at Home Roofing & Exteriors restored the roof, siding, and more, while upgrading the design to better reflect the homeowner’s style.
After a hailstorm caused significant damage to this Stillwater property, the homeowners turned to Wright at Home Roofing & Exteriors for guidance. They weren’t just looking to repair storm damage; they wanted to use the opportunity to modernize their home’s entire exterior.
As first-time homeowners, their top priorities were:
- A bold, updated aesthetic that stood out in the neighborhood
- Durable, high-quality materials that would last
- A team they could trust to navigate the insurance process
Project Overview: Full Exterior Restoration in Stillwater, MN
This wasn’t a basic patch job. It was a full-scale restoration involving multiple services:
Scope of Work
- Roof replacement with CertainTeed Landmark® shingles in Moire Black
- Siding installation using Hardie® Plank from James Hardie siding in Deep Ocean
- Seamless aluminum gutters in white
- New fascia and Arctic White corner boards for bold contrast
With the full scope of work agreed upon, the homeowners were ready to move into the design and selection phase.
Design Goals: How We Helped the Homeowners Visualize Their Dream
We used HOVER software to create an 3D rendering of the new design, giving the homeowners full confidence before the first nail was driven. Check out our FREE Siding Visualizer here!
The clients weren’t in love with the original look of their home, but they could see its potential. We worked closely with them to explore new colors and textures, eventually landing on a striking mix of Deep Ocean siding, white gutters, and Arctic Whitetrim that gave the house a fresh, modern edge.
They wanted something unique, and we helped them build it, starting with a 3D model and ending with a finished product that’s now turning heads throughout the neighborhood.
Overcoming Insurance and Installation Challenges
How We Helped The Homeowners Navigate Their Insurance Coverage
Initially, the insurance company only approved siding replacement on two elevations. But we knew that would result in a mismatched finish. Our team stepped in, documented the damages, and proved that the original siding was discontinued, making full replacement the only viable option.
Craftsmanship Highlights: Precision Work Around Architectural Details
One highlight of this project was the bay window, which required precision-cut siding and thoughtful detailing. It’s now a showpiece of the front elevation and a great example of our commitment to craftsmanship, even when the job calls for something extra.
