New Hope's housing stock is mostly mid-century ramblers and split-levels built between the 1950s and 1970s. A lot of those original roofs have been replaced once already, and many are due again. The city's 20,745 residents (U.S. Census Bureau / Data Commons, 2024) are spread across established residential streets near Bass Lake Road, 42nd Avenue, and the Winnetka Avenue corridor. Median household income sits at $77,662 (U.S. Census Bureau / Data Commons, 2024), which means most homeowners here are making practical, long-term decisions about their homes, not just the cheapest fix available. That's the kind of customer we work best with.
Minnesota winters hit New Hope hard. Ice dams form along roof edges when attic heat melts snow and refreezes at the eaves. Spring brings heavy rain and wind that finds every weak spot in aging shingles or deteriorating flashing. The freeze-thaw cycle through February and March alone does more damage than most homeowners realize until water shows up inside. A roof inspection after winter is worth your time every single year in this climate.
