How It Works · Minnetonka, MN

From In-Home Estimate to Final Walkthrough

Every Lakeside Exteriors project follows the same five-step process, whether you are replacing two windows or scheduling a full exterior overhaul with windows, doors, siding, roofing, and decks.

01

Free In-Home Estimate

We walk your property, take measurements, inspect existing frames and trim, and compare product lines across Pella, Andersen, Marvin, ProVia, LP SmartSide, and Owens Corning.

02

Permitting & Material Orders

Lakeside Exteriors files the municipal building permits and orders custom-sized windows, doors, siding, and roofing materials directly from the manufacturer.

03

Single-Crew Scheduling

If your project includes more than one trade, such as windows, siding, and a roof, we coordinate the sequence as one project instead of separate subcontractors on separate timelines.

04

Full-Frame Installation

Our installers complete the work on site, including full-frame window and door installation, housewrap and flashing, siding, roof tear-off and replacement, or deck construction.

05

Cleanup, Walkthrough & Warranty

We clean the job site, haul away all debris, and walk the finished project with you. Every install is backed by our 5-year workmanship warranty plus manufacturer product warranties.

Multi-Trade Coordination

Why Coordinating Exterior Trades Under One Crew Matters

Where a window frame meets lap siding, or where a deck ledger ties into a house wall, proper flashing determines whether water stays outside during Minnesota spring thaws. When one crew manages your Window installation service alongside your Siding contractor, Door shop, Deck builder, and Roofing Service work, every joint is flashed in the right order.
