Prepare your property for the cold with expert winter home maintenance. At Barefoot Construction, we help North Metro homeowners protect their investments from snow and ice. Minnesota winters are brutal on exterior surfaces. Therefore, proactive care is the only way to prevent expensive water damage and structural issues.

We focus on high-impact areas like your roof and deck. We recommend clearing debris from gutters to prevent dangerous ice dams. We also suggest inspecting your deck for proper drainage before the first snowfall. Our team prioritizes “High-Performance Living” by checking weather stripping around doors and windows. This keeps your home warm and lowers your heating bills. We also advise monitoring basement humidity to prevent mold during the closed-up winter months.

We manage the stress of seasonal transitions for you. Our team provides clear guidance on snow removal techniques that won’t damage your composite or wood decking. We prioritize clear communication to keep your family safe and comfortable. Whether you have a new addition or an older roof, we help you navigate the frost. Trust our local experts to winterize your home the right way.
