Northrup Remodeling, Roofing & Exteriors

We had Northrup completely renovate our bathroom and Chris and his subcontractors did a great job. They were responsive and finished the job on budget and on schedule. We would work with them again!

Excellent job from beginning to end. The quote was very reasonable. The workers arrived at 8 am and completed the entire roof replacement by 5 pm and cleaned up immaculately. The project manager was easy to contact and work with. He responded promptly to all our questions and concerns. The company was referred to us by two of our neighbors and we are delighted with Northrup's work! We would hire them again, no questions asked.

My project manager, Chris Grose, was great to work with. He was easy to communicate with and always responded to my inquiries and questions. His carpenters did an excellent job and the finishing work of the wainscoting matches existing exactly. I was also very happy with his drywall contractor. The drywall contractor made sure the employee he sent to do the work could match our existing textured drywall on the ceiling portion of the job. It matches perfectly! This was a relatively small job but I never felt like it was less important than any other projects Chris was managing. I'm very happy with Chris and Northrup and will hire them again. I recommend you hire them too!

Communication was good, I received exactly what I asked and paid for. The room turned out beautifully. New windows, doors, railing, insulation, hvac, electric, wood work.

Work was done as promised. Bob Nentl, project manager, kept me informed of progress, letting me know when workers would be there and what they were doing. He did a great job.

Chris and his team were excellent! At a time when contractors are spread so thin, every effort was made to get someone to us in a timely manner to get through our rather piecemeal series of jobs to do. We made the decision to list our home, and when I reached out to them to let them know this, they found a way to bump us up a couple of weeks on the calendar. We have an older south Minneapolis home, so needless to say, things have settled. The doors each took some time to install, but they look great and they're level. The guys they sent in were friendly (it can be quite awkward having people in and out of your personal space, but they were always easy to engage with). We would definitely hire them again for future projects in our next home.

I have never posted a review before, wanted to say that working with Northrup Roofing and Exteriors was a very positive experience. I give the company the highest recommendation possible. The work was professionally done and I am most happy with the outcome. The project manager, Cristian Vazquez, was wonderful to work with. He was simultaneously very knowledgeable and professional, while also being flexible and friendly. Finally, when everything was completed, I received a number of compliments from my neighbors about how great it looks

Northrup was amazing! Everything was completed on schedule and within our budget. Ron was an excellent project manager--so knowledgeable, helpful and responsive. Our basement is beautiful!!

I chose Northrup after checking out their interior work on their website, and I do not regret it! They helped update my entire main floor, with some gorgeous trim work, new flooring in my kitchen, and refreshed paint, and I've fallen in love with my home again. Nick and Tommy were prompt, polite, and fantastic to work with. It was clear that their entire team wanted to take the time to get the job done right, and I couldn't be happier.

We live in a 100 year old house. The rafters in our original roof broke and we had a mess. We wanted to repair the structure and re-roof with metal because it's lighter. I went around our neighborhood and talked to 5 neighbors that had metals roofs and eventually landed on Northrup. However, it didn't go well. They did the repair right away, but it sat there, naked, for weeks. I had to hound them - I think because they were waiting on a subcontractor maybe. Finally, they came and did it on a weekend. Fast forward one year - some of the trim didn't get done near the dormer and the little roof over the front door. Mark White came out and fixed it immediately. Fast forward another year, discovered the top-level bathroom fan didn't get vented. HOWEVER!!!! Mark White busted his butt to make it right. The employee that managed the project is no longer there, but Mark really worked at making sure we were happy. I have to give Mark credit for tolerating my nagging and being not-so-happy with all the issues, yet making sure everything was corrected. The work and repairs were top shelf once everything got done. I'm not sure I would hire again after all this. I suspect it had something to do with the previous employee. Maybe there are new project managers now that are more on top of things.

Cristian was very responsive throughout the process, and Jesus and his team were meticulous in the repair work they did. Though our project ended up growing in scope as we uncovered the extent of the damage, Northrup did a great job for us and was reasonable about price. We would definitely consider them for future work

Northrup is truly a wonderful company. Bob Nentl communicated with us throughout the project and the carpentry was beautifully done, so the porch/sunroom looks like it was original to our 1913 home. Top-notch professionals, and we'd rehire them for any home improvement project.

This was a very large (in scope) remodel of a kitchen, including new hardwood install throughout the main floor, new lighting, etc. While there are always little items that come up (such as COVID, meaning the whole family stuck in the house during the project!), the Project Manager Ron was there to guide us throughout. He was very responsive and ensured not only that we received the kitchen we wanted, but helped us to consider some things we hadn't initially. Would definitely hire again.

Marvelous. Good responsiveness, quick and excellent work on many unrelated projects. Reasonable overall price. Would hire again without hesitation.

It was great! Our contractor was very communicative. The project was done early and on budget. All of the sub contractors that came in were great to work with and we would definitely use them again.

Chris and team did a great job creating our unfinished basement into a downstairs oasis. The team worked with a quality and quickness that could not be matched! We added a bathroom, family room and bedroom, all of which have been a great addition to our home. They also worked well within our budget and allowed for us to do the flooring and painting ourselves. We highly recommend working with Northrup on your next home project!

Very well. Cost was as estimated, quality was high and responsiveness was good. This is a very reliable contractor who delivers quality work as promised on time. We are glad we chose them over two other estimated offers.

Mark White and his team did a phenomenal job on all of our home repairs. He was punctual, responsive, and fair. I have to add extra praise as we were under a timeline to get our home on the market and Northrup came through for us even though our projects were delayed by the long winter.

Very, very well. Our project manager provided an upfront plan that met our goals and budget needs. Throughout the process, Northrup was incredibly responsive and professional, even getting to know our dog and working around him. The work turned out great and we would definitely use them again.

Very well. Ron was the company representative we worked with. He was highly professional and responsive to our requests. The job was finished according to schedule and on budget. We would definitely work with Northrup again.

Christian at Northrup was wonderful to work with. He was very responsive and returned all of our calls immediately. The work crew covered all of our plants around the house and garage so they wouldn't be damaged. The finished roof looks great. Will definitely use Northrup again in the future.

BEAUTIFULLY! I had been looking for remodelers to do my kitchen for 4 years. When I found Northrup I felt like half my journey was done. I worked with Bob Nentl as my contractor throughout the process. This house is over 100 years old so bringing the kitchen up to date proved to be a design challenge. Bob referred me to Richard Groh Architects and I worked with the two of them to get a really nice layout. In the design process, I chose to remove the small back porch and expand the kitchen. Because of the slightly slanting lot, this also developed into a small expansion of the basement underneath the new addition. Communication throughout the process was excellent. Bob and I connected regularly and he kept me apprised of any issues and gave me reminders regularly. The work area was cordoned off so that dust was minimized and living was doable. I say ‘doable’ because construction always disrupts your life. Everyone who worked on his project was professional, friendly and highly skilled. From the cabinets, tile and countertops (the visible pieces) to the plumbing, electrical work, floors, construction, and excavation - - They were all excellent to work with. Even my back steps are beautiful! There were a couple of things that I added along the way, including having the plumber look at and replace the plumbing up to the 2nd floor bathroom, and an egress window in the basement (the City’s requirement). Other than that, the project came in on budget. Our only delay was the April snowstorm that delayed the back steps. I was still cooking in my new kitchen though, and I love it. I would definitely hire them again. Everyone remarks on how beautiful my kitchen is - and it’s so much more functional.

We worked with Ron Burgess from Northrup Remodeling to do an extensive remodeling project in our old St. Paul home. The work included adding a new powder room on the main floor, gutting and rebuilding another bathroom, opening up a wall. Lots of wall-moving, electrical, tiling, plumbing, drywall. This was as painless as a major remodel can be. And we are so happy with the results! Leading up to the project we were impressed with how Ron listened to us and helped us think through plans. In preparation for the project Ron mapped it out and helped us understand what to expect. Ron's project plan was accurate, and the work was finished within the projected time period of 3 months. Each subcontractor brought in by Northrup was equally great to work with and they all did excellent work. They were willing to work with me on all of my design choices and helped me navigate challenges that come with remodeling old houses.

In August of 2017, I hired Northrup Remodeling to complete an extensive remodeling project (attached garage, master bathroom, bedroom conversion into a walk-in closet and 2nd floor laundry room, new driveway, backyard brick patio, siding for the entire house, exterior window painting and, repairs on a number of “deferred-maintenance” items within the house). Ron Burgess was the project manager. Northrup Remodeling did an outstanding job. More specifically, Ron Burgess and all of the subcontractors that he assigned to the project were professional, courteous, dedicated and delivered a product that exceeded my expectations in a number of instances. Ron worked tirelessly behind the scenes to coordinate all of the work, was incredibly responsive to all my questions and, provided me with invaluable advice and insight. In a number of instances, Ron’s insight and advice spared me from wasting money on unnecessary work and yielded aesthetic outcomes that were better than I could have imagined. / / / / / / / / / DETAIL / / / / / / In August of 2017, I hired Northrup Remodeling to complete the following: • Tear down a detached two car garage and rebuild an attached two car garage in its place; • Tie the new garage into a pre-existing mudroom (entailed a small expansion of the existing mudroom); • Full demolition and rebuild of the master bathroom; • Conversion of a bedroom into a walk-in closet for the master bedroom and a second floor laundry room; • One window replacement; • Installation of new siding on the entire house; • Exterior painting of all windows, chimneys and brick facade; • Replacement of brick driveway with a concrete driveway; • Removal and reinstallation of brick patio in the back of the house; • Demolition and replacement of front brick walkway; • Repair of deferred-maintenance items (railing and balusters, screen door, foyer tile and grout lines, door handles, interior doors, kitchen sink, cabinet drawers, etc.) Interior construction concluded by January 2018. Following a break for winter, the remaining exterior work was completed by July 2018. Ron Burgess was the Northrup supervisor for the entire project. My experience with Northrup was fantastic and working with Ron was a joy. Ron brought to bear the skills and abilities of subcontractors that provided a high level of quality work and professionalism. At the outset of the project, Ron set out a timetable for the start and expected completion dates for each part of the project. Ron started the project on time and kept everything moving along so that the project finished within expectations. Moreover, any time I had a question, Ron was readily available and promptly addressed any issues to my full satisfaction. Ron also brought to bear the expertise of Kathleen Winter (interior designer) and Richard Groh (architect). Ron, Kathleen and Richard worked extraordinarily well together during the project. In every instance, they were able to suggest great ideas, integrate the goals/desires I had for the finished product and, most important, they dissuaded me from making certain design/material choices that I now realize would have been a huge mistake. Throughout the entire project, I was very impressed with the subcontractors Ron selected for the work. In every one of my interactions with the subcontractors, I found them to be professional, courteous, excited about their work and committed to delivering an outcome that in many instances surpassed my expectations. When each subcontractor started their part of the project, they stayed on the project until it was completed – in a number of instances, working far later in the day than I would have reasonably expected or, working on the weekends.

They got me on the schedule promptly and were able to meet all my need with an amazing price. I got around 11 quotes and I choose them and I am not disapponinted. Would hire them again.
