"I have never worked with a company that I felt valued my business as much as this one. My shower remodel from a plastic surround to a master bath luxury shower turned out amazing. I would highly recommend them."

Honey-Doers
Lakeville Siding & Window Replacement
Siding and windows are your home's envelope — they set the curb appeal, control energy bills, and take the brunt of Minnesota's freeze-thaw cycles. Honey-Doers handles siding replacement, window replacement, and entry and patio door installation across the South Metro, with a free estimate and material options built for our climate, not just the showroom.

What We Handle
Free Estimate & Honest Scope
We assess what actually needs replacing versus what can be repaired, and give you a written estimate before any work begins.
Energy-Efficient Materials
Vinyl, fiber cement, and engineered wood siding; double- and triple-pane, low-E windows — matched to your budget and how long you plan to stay.
Full Envelope Coordination
Siding, windows, and doors installed together so flashing, trim, and weatherproofing tie in correctly — not three separate contractors guessing at each other's work.
Let's Accomplish Your Goals
Whether it's one drafty window or a full re-side, here's what we focus on.
-
Stop Drafts & Lower Bills
Old, single-pane, or failed-seal windows leak conditioned air — energy-efficient replacements pay for themselves over time.
-
Replace Damaged or Failing Siding
Cracked, warped, or storm-damaged siding isn't just cosmetic — it lets moisture behind the wall assembly.
-
Boost Curb Appeal
New siding color, trim, and window styles are one of the highest-visibility updates you can make to your home's exterior.
-
Upgrade Entry & Patio Doors
A new entry door or sliding patio door improves security, insulation, and first impressions in one project.
-
Build for Minnesota's Climate
Materials and installation details matched to freeze-thaw cycles, wind-driven rain, and heavy snow load — not the easiest sale.
From Concept to Completion: Our Process
We make siding & windows simple, efficient, and hassle-free.

— Darrell S.

"High praise to the whole Honey-Doers team! I needed an exterior door install — a smaller job that's hard to find folks willing to take on. Rick, Shelly, Joe & Elliott were all fantastic. Great communication and workmanship. Will definitely use them again!"
— Nick H.

Kudos to Rick, Dan, Shelley, Joe, Freddy, Victor and others. I was always kept informed of scheduling. I'm very pleased with the end result and would highly recommend Honey-Doers."

"I have done a number of projects with Honey-Doers and have been 100% satisfied with their work. They are my go-to people for complex or simple jobs.

"We just completed a major kitchen and laundry room remodel. The project was completed on time in a seamless, no problems manner. Dan, Dana, Joe, Ryan and Joey were terrific to work with. We ended up saving $35,000 compared to another contractor's bid. They were an incredible choice, and we would unequivocally recommend them. No project is too small or too big for them."
— Dale J.

"I met Randy in 1996-97 when we built our house — he's been our fix-it guy ever since. Rick, Joe, and Shelley have all been just as prompt, courteous, and competent. Over nearly 30 years they've handled windows, doors, a radon vent, and countless repairs. If they say they can do the job, they can."
— Bridget H.

"We had an overflowing shower that wrecked flooring, carpet, woodwork and a ceiling. We selected Honey-Doers and it was the absolute best choice possible. They worked with our insurance company, took care of everything, and did a fantastic job returning our home to better than before the flood."
— Mike S.

"I have a 100+ year old home and had storm damage. From beginning to end Adam was regularly in touch, honest, responsive and helpful. He understood all the issues, gave great advice and sorted through the insurance maze. All the subs knew what to do and clearly were treated with respect. I enthusiastically give them 5 stars."
— Mary A.

"Honey-Doers accomplished two projects in an office condo we recently purchased. When most contractors are in a hurry to get the job done and move on, their professional took his time to make sure everything was right and we were satisfied. A refreshing change. I would highly recommend Honey-Doers."
— Douglas A.

"ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! Dan is a master at coordinating so many details. He explained things to me in plain English and helped me navigate the nightmare of insurance claims when no one else would. Larry and Joe were super friendly and helpful. Everyone was prompt — when they said they were coming at a certain time, they showed up then. For my next project, I will go back to them and nobody else!"
— Karin R.
Home Maintenance
"In a world where service has kind of gone downhill, this team blows it out of the water. We had water damage — a massive hole in both the wall and ceiling. Honey-Doers came out ahead of a snow storm and began exterior work to make sure we were insulated and safe before it hit. They were quick and masters at their craft. I would recommend Honey-Doers to all."
— Jack D.

"My home flooded from the upstairs through to the main level just after Thanksgiving — our baby was just 6 months old. I had never filed a claim before and had no idea what to do. From start to finish Dan and his team went above and beyond. I've never had a business treat me with such respect, patience and understanding. I couldn't be more happy with how it turned out."

"The Honey-Doers team are A+ to work with. Organized, detailed, knowledgeable, professional are top words to describe this remodeling company. As interior designers, it's very important to our design firm that we have reliable teams to work with on remodel projects — and Honey-Doers fits that mold."
— Amber G.

"My relationship with Honey-Doers started with replacing an entrance door. For even that isolated project I could tell they cared about quality workmanship. Their latest work involved replacing home windows and a storm door — they matched trim and wall colors, and replaced rotted materials uncovered during the project. I have no reservations recommending them for projects from simple to those that impact the worthiness and worth of one's home."

Common Questions
Drafts you can feel near the frame, fogging or condensation between panes (a sign the seal has failed), windows that are difficult to open or won't stay open, and visible rot or warping in the frame all point to replacement rather than repair. A single failed seal on an otherwise sound window is sometimes worth repairing individually. If your windows are original to a home built before the early 2000s, replacement usually delivers a bigger energy and comfort improvement than repair. We give you a straight answer during the free estimate.
Yes, though the size of the savings depends on what you're replacing. Single-pane or older double-pane windows with failed seals lose significant heat in winter and let heat in during summer — replacing them with double- or triple-pane, low-E windows is one of the more reliable ways to cut heating and cooling costs in an older Minnesota home. The bigger the gap between your current windows' performance and modern low-E glass, the faster the upgrade pays for itself in comfort and utility costs.
Window replacement costs in the Twin Cities typically range from $500–$1,200 per window installed for standard vinyl double-hung windows, with larger, custom, or higher-end fiberglass and composite windows running higher. Whole-home replacement projects usually see per-window pricing improve compared to one-off replacements because of shared labor and material ordering. We provide a detailed written estimate per window or door before any work begins — no vague per-project allowances.
Yes — entry door, storm door, and sliding or French patio door installation are part of our exterior envelope work. These projects are often bundled with a window or siding job since they involve the same flashing and weatherproofing details, but we also handle them as standalone projects. A new entry door improves both security and insulation, and is one of the higher-ROI single upgrades available for curb appeal.
Like-for-like window replacement (same size opening) typically doesn't require a permit in most South Metro cities, but structural changes to the opening size do. Full siding replacement generally doesn't require a permit unless it involves structural sheathing repair. Requirements vary by city, so we confirm what applies to your specific project and handle any required permits and inspections as part of the job.
Yes — Honey-Doers provides siding replacement, window replacement, and entry/patio door installation throughout the South Metro, including Lakeville, Apple Valley, Burnsville, Eagan, Prior Lake, Chaska, Rosemount, Savage, and surrounding communities. Contact us for a free estimate.
Vinyl siding is the most budget-friendly option, requires no painting, and holds up well to Minnesota winters, though it can crack under severe hail impact. Fiber cement (like James Hardie) costs more upfront but resists fire, rot, and pests, holds paint longer, and has become the preferred choice for homeowners planning to stay long-term. Engineered wood siding offers a more traditional wood look at a lower cost than real wood, with better rot resistance than natural lumber, though it requires more maintenance than fiber cement. We help you weigh cost, maintenance, and how long you plan to stay in the home.
Yes — hail can crack, dent, or puncture vinyl and fiber cement siding, and wind can loosen or tear panels off entirely. Storm-damaged siding is often covered by homeowners insurance the same way a storm-damaged roof is. If you suspect hail or wind damage to your siding, document it with photos and have it inspected — damage that isn't addressed can let moisture behind the wall assembly and cause bigger problems than the visible cracks suggest.
Siding replacement costs in the Twin Cities generally range from $12,000–$25,000 for a standard-size home in vinyl, up to $25,000–$45,000+ for fiber cement, depending on square footage, trim complexity, and whether the existing house wrap and sheathing need repair once the old siding comes off. We inspect what's underneath before quoting a final number — hidden sheathing damage is the most common source of cost surprises in siding projects, and we flag it upfront rather than after the tear-off.
A single window or door replacement typically takes one day. A whole-home window replacement runs two to five days depending on the number of windows and whether any framing repair is needed. A full siding re-side generally takes one to two weeks, factoring in tear-off, house wrap and flashing repair, and installation. Custom colors or specialty sizes add to the material lead time before installation can start — we give you a specific schedule once materials are ordered.
We install double-hung, casement, sliding, bay, and garden windows, along with entry doors, storm doors, and sliding or French patio doors — in vinyl, fiberglass, and composite materials. The right style depends on your home's architecture, the room's function, and how the window or door needs to operate (venting, egress, sightlines). We help you match style to function rather than just picking what looks good in a showroom.
Yes — matching trim profiles, window grid patterns, and siding colors to your home's existing style (or updating them intentionally as part of a broader exterior refresh) is part of the material selection process. If you're only replacing some windows or a section of siding rather than the whole home, we help you choose options that blend with what's staying, or plan a phased approach so the final look is cohesive.
