Exterior restoration for HOAs and multifamily
We specialize in full-scale siding, roofing, window, deck, and structural framing projects for occupied multi-family and commercial properties. Complete exterior restorations with zero displacement for residents.
When an occupied building has to be opened up, Paragon is the general contractor. The wall is walked and photographed first. The price follows that record. Residents stay in their units.
New buildings are part of the work. In 2021 Paragon finished The Moments of Lakeville, 60 apartments of memory care and enhanced assisted living. In 2019 the company did the envelope at Lake West, an office in Minnetonka of about 60,000 sq ft.
Differential settlement opened the fourth-floor flashing and waterproofing: doors, windows, and the brick ledge. Paragon replaced those windows and doors, the cladding, the weatherproofing, and the flashing, with the forensic engineer.
Years of deferred maintenance. Decks and sheathing came off, deteriorated framing was corrected, and new windows, doors, siding, and exterior insulation went on. At the pool, hidden structural damage meant a new steel roof deck, new columns, and a two-story curtain wall.
The decks were leaking. Encompass Engineering found the EIFS sealed so tight that moisture stayed in the wall, and the deck framing under it was damaged. Paragon took the decks off, shored the roofs of those units, rebuilt the decks, and replaced the EIFS.
Phase two is a 3-story, 60-unit memory care and enhanced assisted living building, finished in 2021. Local architects led the design. Paragon ran pre-construction, project management, finishing, and specialty design.
A Minnetonka office. In 2019 Paragon did the building envelope, design-build. The building is about 60,000 sq ft.
Once they opened up the siding, we were horrified to see a significant amount of damage to our buildings from water intrusion over the years. Paragon went above and beyond to help us navigate that, talking with homeowners and the board to reassure us that they could make everything look as good as new, which they did.
I highly recommend Paragon Commercial Builders based on my recent experience with the company. I had the opportunity to interact with them as a member of an HOA board that hired Paragon to complete an approximately $3.5 million exterior renovation project.
Highly recommend. Paragon is just finishing a project that includes our townhouse. Like any large update, there were several challenges, and they were innovative and persistent. The project manager and the crew were very responsive to my questions, were respectful of my home, and did quality work. My siding and decks look great!
If you're part of an association trying to tackle a big renovation project, do yourself a favor and call Paragon. We went through months of red tape: city permitting delays, board approval hurdles, you name it. Paragon stuck with us through all of it. A lot of contractors would have walked. They didn't.
Our association engaged Paragon for a comprehensive renovation project, and their performance throughout exceeded expectations at every stage. From the outset, this was a demanding undertaking that required not only technical expertise but also patience, adaptability, and a commitment to seeing the project through.
Our HOA hired Paragon for a siding project that became complicated with many repairs being needed in addition to it. The company went above and beyond to take care of our properties. Excellent workmanship and highly recommended. Our homes are beautiful! Thank you.
“Paragon is finishing a $3.5 million project for our HOA, and as President of our Board, we are quite impressed with their fantastic work. I would hire them in a heartbeat to do any future work.”
Jane Tunseth, board president, Widgeon Woods
Every deck and porch has been rebuilt. Rotting cedar siding has been replaced. The new decks are DuxxBak. After the siding came off, water damage was in the wall. Windows from an earlier hail and wind claim were coordinated with the window company on that claim. Several homeowners later hired Paragon for their own units.
Jane Tunseth is the board president. The association job is still being finished.

HOA and condominium boards, townhome associations, apartment owners, and property managers. Paragon is also the general contractor on commercial buildings. Lake West, a Minnetonka office, is one of those jobs.
On the repair jobs, residents stay in the building while the outside is opened. The Moments of Lakeville was a new 60-unit senior building, finished in 2021.
Paragon walks the elevations and photographs the wall, including failed flashing and soft sheathing. A written scope follows within a week.
A condition report the association owns. Seven systems, scored Stable, Monitor, or Priority, with ground photographs and thermal images from night flights. A reserve study prices the parts over time. This report records what the roof, walls, and openings are doing now.
No. The report stays with the association either way. If the board bids the construction, ask Paragon for one of the three numbers.
