Prior Lake

Another lake town, another set of exposed roofs

Upper and Lower Prior Lake give this city miles of shoreline. Lake homes here face the same wind and weather we know from Lake Minnetonka.

We're a lake-country contractor by background. Prior Lake's shoreline homes, with their lake-facing glass and complex rooflines, feel familiar.

Shoreline and beyond

Homes along Upper and Lower Prior Lake range from converted cabins to large modern lake homes. Away from the water, neighborhoods built over the last few decades fill in around Cleary Lake Regional Park and the city's south side.

For lakeshore homes, lake-facing walls and windows take the brunt of weather. For subdivision homes, it's usually aging shingles and builder-grade ventilation.

Prior Lake FAQ

Our lake home has a steep, complex roof. Is that a problem?

Not a problem, just more work. Complexity shows up in time and materials, which we'll explain in the proposal.

Do you replace large picture windows?

Yes. Brands we install include Andersen, Kolbe, Marvin, Pella and Weather Shield. See windows.
