Cottage GroveCottage Grove's ramblers and split-levels are due
A big share of Cottage Grove's homes went up in the 1960s and 1970s. Many are ready for new roofs, siding and windows, and owners want to do it once and do it right.
About Cottage Grove
Cottage Grove sits along the Mississippi in southern Washington County, with Cottage Grove Ravine Regional Park and plenty of open land on its edges. Newer neighborhoods have grown up in recent decades, but the core of the city is mid-century.
Those mid-century homes are solid but were built before today's ventilation and ice-barrier standards, so a re-roof is a real upgrade, not just new shingles.
What a 1960s–1970s Cottage Grove home usually needs
- Full tear-off, often through more than one layer
- Decking repair in spots
- Updated ventilation and ice protection
- Siding replacement on homes with original hardboard or aluminum
- Window upgrades for drafty originals
Cottage Grove FAQ
Will new siding make my house warmer?
Siding itself adds little insulation, but a new weather barrier and sealed openings help. See siding.
Can we spread the work over a couple of years?
Yes. We'll help you sequence it: roof first if it's leaking, then windows and siding together.
