Bryan was excellent to work with. This is the second time I have worked with him for storm damage. He is a local buisness which i like. His knowledge of the insurance side is awesome and his crews were on time, very through and cleaned up the job site completely. I would definitely recommend Johnson Exteriors and would use them again. I have used Johnson Exteriors for several other exterior home maintenance projects too. They are fast thorough and honest. Sometimes referring me to other contractors for work they don't directly handle. These contractors have also done excellent work.Posted on Google![]()

Bryan Johnson and his team were wonderful to work with on my siding and roofing project. There were a lot of hiccups along the way due to my insurance company, but Bryan was persistent in getting the work completed. The home looks fresh and updated and I have gotten so many compliments from neighbors. The whole team was professional, answered all of my questions, and were always available throughout the process. I would highly recommend Johnson Exteriors!Posted on Google![]()

Bryan was amazing to work with! He explains every detail and makes sure you understand all your options. He was always available to answer any questions we had. His team did a great job with clean up around the yard when the roof was complete. The Cost was fair and right on point with competitors in the area. We will definitely use them again and recommend Johnson Exterior to anyone in need of a new roof.Posted on Google![]()

Johnson Exteriors far exceeded our expectations. In short, my insurance was being difficult throughout the process of a roof replacement, yet Bryan and his team took care of all the work on the back end and I rarely had to handle any of it. Bryan's team was timely, kind, and there for me whenever I had a question. I would hands down recommend Johnson Exteriors for any exterior needs you might have. Next time I have a need, I'm going straight to them.Posted on Google![]()

Johnson Exteriors was great to work with during an insurance claim for a new roof. From the initial estimate all of the way through the installation of the new roof until the final check was received from the insurance company. They explained everything and made sure we understood what work they were doing and not doing and helped coordinate any adjustments needed with the insurance company. They also had someone on site the entire day of the installation available if we had any questions. They cleaned up after the install and were back within a couple of days to pick up any extra supplies. I would definitely reach out to Johnson Exteriors for any future exterior needs.

Why Siding Matters for Home Protection
Siding is one of your home’s first layers of defense against Minnesota weather. It helps protect exterior walls, sheathing, insulation, trim, and window and door openings from moisture, wind, impact, snow, hail, sun exposure, and freeze-thaw conditions.
When siding becomes cracked, loose, warped, faded, or storm-damaged, it can expose vulnerable areas and allow small problems to become larger exterior issues. Johnson Exteriors helps homeowners evaluate siding condition, visible damage, and material options to decide whether siding repair, replacement, or new installation makes the most sense.
- A Well-Installed Siding System Can Help Protect:
Exterior Walls
Sheathing
Insulation Layers
Window & Door Openings
Trim Details
Fascia & Soffits
Seams & Transitions
Long-Term Curb Appeal

Signs Your Siding Needs Attention
Siding problems often start as small visual issues before they become larger exterior concerns. A few loose panels, faded sections, impact marks, or cracks may not seem urgent at first, but damaged siding can continue worsening as the home is exposed to moisture, wind, storms, and seasonal temperature changes.
- Homeowners may want to have their siding evaluated if they notice:
- cracked siding
- loose or missing panels
- warped or buckled sections
- faded or heavily worn siding
- storm or hail damage
- dents or impact marks
- moisture staining
- soft or deteriorated areas
- siding pulling away from the home
- repeated repair needs
- damaged trim around windows or doors
- visible gaps, seams, or openings
Some siding issues can be repaired when damage is limited. If fading, storm damage, moisture concerns, or aging materials are more widespread, siding replacement may be the better long-term solution.
Siding Installation
New siding installation should be planned around more than color and material alone. The siding needs to fit the home’s exterior style, weather exposure, trim details, window and door openings, roofline transitions, and long-term protection needs.
As a local siding installer, Johnson Exteriors provides siding installation services for homeowners throughout Minneapolis, St. Paul, and surrounding Minnesota communities. New siding may be part of a full exterior remodeling project, storm restoration work, or a larger effort to improve curb appeal and exterior durability.
Every home has different siding needs depending on its age, exterior condition, architectural style, and exposure to wind, moisture, snow, sun, and storm activity. A good siding installation should help the home look updated while also supporting long-term exterior protection.
Johnson Exteriors helps homeowners review siding material options such as vinyl siding, steel siding, LP SmartSide, and Hardie siding based on the goals of the project and the condition of the home.
Siding Replacement
Siding replacement is often the best option when existing siding is too aged, damaged, faded, loose, or storm-affected to continue protecting the home properly. What may look like a cosmetic issue at first can sometimes indicate larger exterior concerns, especially when siding is cracked, warped, pulling away from the home, or allowing moisture into vulnerable areas.
Johnson Exteriors provides siding replacement services for homeowners throughout Minneapolis, St. Paul, and surrounding Minnesota communities. Replacement may be recommended when siding has reached the point where repeated repairs no longer provide a practical long-term solution.
Homeowners often consider siding replacement when the exterior has widespread fading, storm damage, moisture concerns, loose panels, repeated repair needs, or outdated materials that no longer match the goals for the home.
Siding replacement can help improve curb appeal, refresh the exterior, and provide better protection against Minnesota weather conditions. It also gives homeowners the opportunity to choose materials that better fit the home’s appearance, maintenance expectations, and long-term exterior protection needs.
Siding Repair
Not every siding problem requires full replacement. In some cases, targeted siding repair may be enough to address localized damage, improve the appearance of the exterior, and help restore protection in a specific problem area.
Johnson Exteriors provides siding repair services for homeowners throughout Minneapolis, St. Paul, and surrounding Minnesota communities. Repairs may be appropriate when the siding is generally still performing well but has isolated damage from storms, impact, moisture, wind, or normal wear.
Siding repair may help address cracked panels, loose siding sections, small areas of impact damage, storm-damaged siding, damaged trim details, or sections that have shifted out of place.
Some siding damage is limited enough for repair to make sense. However, if the siding is faded across large areas, repeatedly damaged, brittle, warped, pulling away from the home, or affected by widespread storm damage, full replacement may be the more practical long-term option. If hail or wind caused the damage, we can also document it and walk you through our storm damage insurance claim process.
Not sure whether your siding needs repair or replacement? Johnson Exteriors can evaluate the damage, material condition, and exterior details to help you choose the most practical next step.
Siding Material Options
Different homes call for different siding materials. Johnson Exteriors helps homeowners compare vinyl siding, steel siding, LP SmartSide, and Hardie siding based on appearance goals, durability needs, maintenance expectations, budget, and the condition of the home.
Vinyl Siding
Vinyl siding is a practical option for many residential homes because it offers a clean exterior appearance, flexible style options, and lower-maintenance performance compared to some traditional siding materials.
It can work well for homeowners who want to refresh curb appeal, replace aging siding, or update damaged exterior materials without overcomplicating the project.
Steel Siding
Steel siding is a durable option for homeowners who want strong exterior protection, clean curb appeal, and long-term performance in demanding weather conditions.
It may be a good fit for homes exposed to frequent storms, wind, debris, or other exterior wear that can gradually affect weaker or aging siding materials.
LP SmartSide
LP SmartSide is an engineered wood siding option for homeowners who want a strong exterior appearance with practical performance for residential homes.
It is often chosen by homeowners who want a more dimensional, wood-look appearance without relying on traditional wood siding. For homes where appearance is a major priority, LP SmartSide can provide a strong balance of style, performance, and exterior character.
Hardie Siding
Hardie siding is a fiber cement siding option for homeowners who want a durable exterior material with strong curb appeal and long-term protection.
It can be a good fit for siding replacement projects where the homeowner wants a more substantial exterior upgrade than standard siding materials and a clean, finished exterior appearance.
Siding, Gutters, Roofing & Exterior Details
Siding works closely with the rest of the home’s exterior. Gutters, roof edges, fascia, soffits, windows, doors, trim, and exterior paint all affect how finished the project looks and how well the home handles weather over time.
When siding is replaced or repaired, it is often worth evaluating nearby exterior details that may also be worn, damaged, or affected by moisture and storm exposure.
Gutters, fascia, and soffits sit near the roofline and often interact with the siding system below. Windows, doors, corners, and trim transitions also affect both the appearance of the finished exterior and the way the home handles moisture and weather exposure.
After hail, wind, falling debris, or severe storms, siding damage may appear alongside roofing, gutter, window, door, or trim damage. Johnson Exteriors evaluates the broader exterior condition when needed so homeowners can understand whether the issue is isolated or part of a larger storm restoration project.
