Custom One Renovation, in collaboration with Custom One Exteriors, is thrilled to announce the completion of the Lake Elmo Exterior Renovation, an award-winning transformation recognized with the Silver Award at the 2024 NARI RotY Awards in the Residential Exterior Renovation category for projects valued between $100,000 and $200,000.

Nestled in the scenic surroundings of Lake Elmo, this project breathed new life into an aging home, previously clad in outdated blue paneling with shutters and a red door. The homeowners sought a low-maintenance, timeless design that harmonized with the natural environment. Together, our teams delivered a stunning result that surpassed expectations.

The renovation features durable white James Hardie lap siding, which pairs beautifully with sleek black Andersen windows to create a modern yet classic aesthetic. To ensure durability and weather resistance, the project incorporated a black standing seam metal roof and impact-resistant IKO Dynasty shingles—perfectly suited to Minnesota’s challenging climate. Modern lighting fixtures and clean architectural lines further enhanced the home’s curb appeal.

Functionality and durability were at the forefront of the project. Andersen windows significantly improved the home’s energy efficiency, while James Hardie siding and IKO Dynasty shingles reduced long-term maintenance demands. The use of high-quality materials ensured lasting value for the homeowners.

Craftsmanship played a pivotal role in achieving the transformation. Custom One Exteriors expertly handled the installation, paying meticulous attention to every detail, from precise siding alignment to tailored trim around windows and gables. This commitment to excellence showcased the team’s ability to blend functionality with sophisticated design.

The final result is a low-maintenance, weather-resistant exterior that complements its natural surroundings while exuding timeless elegance. The Lake Elmo home now stands as a testament to the expertise and collaboration of Custom One Renovation and Custom One Exteriors.
