Project Overview
This residence in Eden Prairie received a complete exterior makeover that brought new life and lasting performance to their home. The project began with the removal of the home’s original cedar siding, which had weathered and required ongoing maintenance.
Once the cedar siding was removed, our team installed James Hardie Smooth lap siding in Arctic White, a timeless choice that offers both curb appeal and resilience against Minnesota’s harsh climate. To complement the siding, all trim, soffits, and fascia were finished in Arctic White, creating a clean, classic look.
In addition to the siding, the homeowners wanted to address their outdated, drafty windows. We replaced them with sleek Black Marvin windows, which not only improved energy efficiency but also added striking contrast against the crisp white siding. This upgrade modernized the home’s overall appearance while providing long-term durability.
A highlight of the project is the Boral beadboard entryway ceiling, which gives the front entrance a welcoming, detailed touch. Combined with new trim details, custom shutters, and a refreshed gable vent, the home now blends classic design elements with modern performance.

Our homeowner had dreamt about one day redoing her beyond outdated kitchen since they day her husband carried her over the threshold. Vinyl flooring used for a backsplash, dingy carpeting, laminate with no sheen left to speak of and mismatched cabinetry…. it was time to make it happen. A year’s worth of planning later, her time capsule became one dreamy kitchen.
Functionality reigns supreme in this small, but efficient kitchen where every cabinet has a story to tell and a place to store it. Countertop space to the right of the stove was an added necessity for function and safety. The raised snack bar is perfect for day to day meals and the lowered countertop was a must for this petite baker. A new lighting plan includes recessed lights, under-cabinet and accent lights, while new lighting fixtures reflect the client’s sense of style. Dingy brick patterned carpet was removed making way for new hardwood floors toothed in from the dining room.
An airy palette gained some weight with the use of larger details; the oversized hood, beefy turned posts, prominent apron front sink and a grouping of tall cabinets on the refrigerator wall. Glass cabinet fronts, shiny beveled subway tile, and granite countertops allow light to dance around the space.

Woodpecker proof siding is what these homeowners in Eden Prairie Minnesota wanted. These homeowner recently tackled a remodeling project that turned a frustrating situation into a stunning transformation. The main catalyst for the upgrade? Persistent woodpecker damage to the home’s existing cedar siding. After years of dealing with the unsightly holes and constant repairs, the homeowners decided to make a lasting change, opting for durable and aesthetically pleasing materials that would stand up to the elements — and the local wildlife.
In addition to the siding, the project included the replacement of the windows with Marvin fiberglass windows in black. The sleek black frames created a striking contrast against the Iron Gray siding, adding a contemporary touch while improving energy efficiency and overall durability.
A standout feature of the remodel was the entryway, which received special attention with the installation of thermally modified wood siding. This unique material, known for its enhanced stability and rich appearance, really set off the entryway, creating a warm and welcoming focal point that contrasted beautifully with the cool tones of the Iron Gray siding.
The homeowners in Eden Prairie now have a home that is not only protected from woodpecker damage but also showcases modern design elements and materials that will last for years to come. The combination of woodpecker proof siding, black Marvin windows, and thermally modified wood has truly transformed the home into a standout in the neighborhood.
