Hail Hit Mankato on April 13, 2026. Here's What You Need to Know.
A significant hailstorm moved through the Mankato, MN area on April 13, 2026, leaving homeowners across Blue Earth County with potential damage to their roofs, siding, gutters, and windows. If your home was in the path of this storm, there's a good chance you have damage you can't see from the ground. Hail damage is often invisible from the street — but your insurance company has a clock running. Most Minnesota homeowners insurance policies require you to file a claim within a specific window after a storm event. If you wait too long, you could lose your right to a covered repair. Don't wait. Get a free inspection now.

Why Mankato Homeowners Need to Act Fast After the April 13, 2026 Storm
After a major hail event, two things happen quickly: Storm chasers show up. Out-of-state contractors flood affected neighborhoods with door hangers and pressure tactics. They do the job and disappear. If something goes wrong six months later, they're nowhere to be found. Your claim window closes. Insurance policies have strict deadlines. The longer you wait to document damage and file a claim, the harder it becomes to get your full coverage. Innovative Building & Design is based in Blaine, MN — not a storm chasing operation. We're a licensed, certified, locally owned contractor that will still be here long after your project is complete.
Signs of Hail Damage on Your Mankato Home
You don't have to climb on your roof to spot the warning signs. Look for:
• Dents on gutters or downspouts — metal dents easily from hail impact • Damaged or missing shingles — look for granule loss, cracks, or bare spots • Dented AC unit or vents — a reliable indicator that hail hit your property • Cracked or chipped siding — vinyl and fiber cement siding both show hail impact • Damaged window screens or frames — often overlooked but covered by insurance If you see any of these signs — or even if you're not sure — call us for a free inspection. We'll give you an honest assessment with no pressure and no obligation.

Joe and his team added 900 sq ft to our home on Medicine Lake in Plymouth and made our home our dream home. We added a master suite and gym below. It was so easy working with Joe through a major project. He is the best contractor I have worked with by far! I would hire him again for anything we need.

Innovative put a new roof on our house, and we couldn’t be happier. Everyone we worked with was very professional and helpful. We had to do an insurance claim, they made it very easy to understand the process. They’re team of roofers was very thorough and even went the extra mile, we are very appreciative for their clean up and they’re work. Would definitely hire them again and have already recommended them to our friends and family.

We worked with Innovative Building and Design to install an in-ground pool this summer. Justin was friendly and easy to work with. Pricing and timelines were very reasonable considering the scope of work. His team was professional throughout the whole process taking the stress of a big construction project such as this out of the equation. We couldn't be happier with our finished pool and are happy that we were able to work with such a great company to get this done.

We used Innovative Building and Design for our pool this summer. We can't say enough of how well this company did and how timely they were with the project. Justin was amazing answering a long list of questions daily! Joe and the build crew made the work look seamless. Making on the spot adjustments because of me... without worry or question! The part that just continues to stand out after the build is the customer service! They are timely and trustworthy that they will get the answer and work done without question. We have recommended Innovative Building and Design to several friends that are interested in a pool.

Innovative came highly recommended when we were shopping for a pool builder. Their pricing was inline or better than several other pool builders. They were able to get our pool built this year, while several other builders were a year out or longer. We had a great experience with Justin and Joe.

We used Innovative Building & Design, LLC for our pool installation this summer and couldn't be more pleased with our experience. We received several estimates and selected Justin and his team because the proposal was extremely detailed, the price was competitive, and the professional approach was second to none. In the end everything was on schedule and the overall quality exceeded our expectations. This is my second pool in 20 years and I strongly recommend connecting with Justin and his team if you are considering a pool installation.

We hired Innovative in the Spring to install an in ground pool and were nothing short of impressed from the initial request for an estimate to completion of the project.Justin is highly knowledgeable and has a long history with pool installations which solidified our decision in hiring his company. He was patient and answered our plethora of questions! Joe and his team worked seamlessly, efficiently and conducted themselves in a professional manner the entire time at our home.

We went with Innovative Building & Design because of Tony. He was thorough, honest & helpful with suggestions when he came for our estimate. The work he and his crew completed on our roof is top notch. His skills and attention to detail were so impressive and the final product shows his great workmanship. He was patient and always took the time to answer our many questions as well as provide some tips to us. Thank you Tony and Innovative Building & Design.. The team provides uswith highest level of customer service. Thank you Justin!

Justin and the entire crew from Innovative were a pleasure to work with throughout the construction of our new pool. We were introduced to the Innovative team through a recommendation from our neighbor and are so glad we called them. Their price and quality of the work met all of our expectations and we couldn’t be happier with how the project turned out. Justin was always extremely responsive when we had questions and the professionalism of the entire crew was great.

I had already signed a contract with a different contractor but needed independent unbiased advice on work that was completed. I found Innovative Building and Design online, and saw they were local, so gave them a call. They returned my call promptly. After explaining my unique situation they had me speak with one of the owners - Justin. He was very understanding, and scheduled a time to come out the very next day!!Justin spent over an hour with me completing a very thorough inspection and listened to all my concerns. He was able to offer great insight and advice on some issues I asked about as well as issues I wasn’t even aware of. His years of experience clearly showed.I cannot thank Innovation Building and Design enough for their exemplary customer service. Which is unfortunately not easily found these days. I wished I had taken more time in finding the right contractor. Next time, I would work with this company in a heartbeat.

Innovative Design built our maintenance free deck and stamped concrete patio 5 years ago. We were so pleased with their work, we called them when we were ready to finish our backyard oasis. They installed a amazing in ground sport pool and built us a wonderful sport court. The whole process was very easy. Justin and Joe are professional, honest, easy to work with. We could not be happier with how the project turned out.

Richard House at Innovative Building & Design went above and beyond to be supportive through the process of storm damage repair. Never filing an insurance claim before, Richard was there to guide us at each step. He supplied us with an excellent 3D design tool to apply different color options to our home before making a selection. Richard was present while the insurance adjuster evaluated the damage and communicated with the desk adjuster to know exactly how our claim was being processed. The crew completed the job in one day and the quality control was great, making sure there were no trash or nails left behind. I couldn’t recommend Richard or Innovative Building & Design enough!

We reached out to Innovative in fall of 2020 for a new pool. Justin came out with Troy to take a look at the best option for our yard. Justin was fantastic to work with. He was consistently available to answer questions and was very knowledgeable. Our pool was installed early spring 2021 by Joe and his team. They were great to work with, especially because we were out of town on vacation when they broke ground. Justin remained involved from start to finish and we were able to reach out with any small question.This was our first major home project..We were very pleased with our final product and the quality of service we received. We'll definitely use them again for any future home improvement projects.

We used Innovative after a flood in our basement several years ago when our sump pump failed. They helped us immediately after it happened to get the area free of water damaged materials including drywall, flooring and cabinets. They remodeled the entire basement including the bathroom, walls, flooring, installed closet and other interior doors and updated the electrical. It was a big job and they were professional and highly skilled. They answered questions and handled the various teams that came in and kept the project on budget and on schedule. Years later, we had them replace our roof and siding and deck. They also updated our columns and replaced our front door. We have a home built in 1978. It looks great now with the new exterior. I highly recommend Innovative. They were excellent.

We have used Innovative Building and Design a few different times now and all services have been excellent. We worked with them on storm damage including full house siding/roofing and gutters. They worked with our Insurance company and all went smooth. They communicated with us all along the way with timelines and expectations. We also used Innovative for a backyard renovation which included an inground pool and full surround concrete and stamped concrete, as well as a full stamped concrete fireplace area. During all of the work provided, customer service was excellent and quickly addressed any questions we had. I would highly recommend them…

The company I’m the administrator for was working with the city of Brooklyn Park to get a housing project done. Joe and his team and at innovative were with us every step of the way. Communication was great, and once the project began Joe worked great at meeting the needs we had with some last minute adjustments. Whether it’s on a professional level or personal level in the future we’d use them again. Hopefully this helps anyone looking for a great contracting company to work with.

Innovative Building & Design just replaced our roof and did an excellent job. Richard was the only person who bothered getting on our roof prior to providing an estimate. The quote was fair, the explanation of the process was completely transparent, and the work was tremendous. The team showed up on time, despite the cold conditions, and finished the work as promised. All of the debris was picked up and the yard was left completely clean, better than they found it. We’re so glad we chose this company and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a new roof.

I've used Innovative close to a dozen times now on both my personal and rental properties over the past few years. I've also had several clients use them as well for roof, siding and window replacement. They have been very organized and have helped many of my clients navigate through the complexities of insurance claims and meeting with adjusters in person. Kelly & Justin have been my primary contacts and have been nothing but courteous and professional to work with.

The second time, they replaced our siding and roof after a storm. They were wonderful to work with, and even helped deal with the insurance company. We would definitely call them again if needed.

I worked with Richard mostly on the hail damage that was done to my house siding and roof back in 2019. He and Innovative held my hand through the process and worked directly with the insurance companies to make sure everything was judged fairly. I really appreciated his expertise in the insurance field and it felt nice that someone was batting for me. The work, as far as I can tell is great, and I would recommend them to anyone. I’m a fairly skeptical guy about contractors in general but I felt very comfortable working with their team.

We first contracted Innovative back in the fall of 2017 to repair our roof and siding after we had extensive hail damage. The owner Justin Kahmann took our first call directly and was out the next day to perform an inspection. He provided clear recommendations on required repairs and best quality materials to use, and also helped us navigate the insurance claim process. As part of the project we also worked with Joe Hansmann and his team to replace our brick veneer exterior with new stone. Both Justin and Joe were very responsive and professional throughout the whole process especially considering the large amount of jobs they had on their plates after the massive 2017 hail storm. We only had one minor issue with our AC unit not turning on after the siding was installed, but the team was quick to come out and fix it. We've now had our new exterior for 3+ years and have not had any issues. The attached picture shows a side by side of the before (red roof) and after (gray). We trust... Innovative's work that we have referred them to our family and also contracted them to renovate our kitchen. I will leave a separate review with pictures on the kitchen renovation, but so far we've been extremely impressed with the turnaround time of the demo and installation of our new cabinets/flooring (only 3 days total!) We plan to continue using Innovative for our repair and renovation needs, and will also recommend to friends and family.read more

From start to finish Innovative was amazing to work with. They came out the day after a large storm to inspect my house. I started my claim with my insurance and that was the last piece I had to do as a homeowner. Everything was coordinated and I was kept informed of every step of the way! The crew that replaced my roof were on time when they said they would be and did a beautiful job. I will recommend Innovative to all my friends and family!

Had a great experience with Innovative Building & Design. We started our project of siding with a request for a price quote. Richard House came out to take measurements to accurately give an estimate. In that process, they do a whole house inspection. He inspected the roof and found that there was hail damage on our roof and gutter. We filed a claim with the insurance and he walked us through the whole process. Richard was great when it came to working with the adjusters and the insurance claim team. We started the siding project without knowing if/when the roof project would happen. He was always willing to come to our house when we had questions about the project. He was easy to reach by phone or text at any reasonable time. When we had issues with the crew, Richard came out to fix the issue himself. Siding project completed. Roof project to start. Same thing, he was there for any issues/questions. Jeff was quick to finish the little tasks such as putting up the light fixtures,... doorbell, weatherstripping on the garage door, etc. Even after the projects are completed they are there to fix issues. We had a piece of siding that came down and they immediately sent Jeff out to fix it. I would recommend Innovative for any home improvement need that you have.read more

They were extremely helpful with repairs after we had storm damage to our home. They worked directly with our insurance company and handled all aspects of the various types of work that needed to be done. Roofing, gutters, siding, screen porch, garage doors, painting, etc. They handled all of the coordination—something that would have been challenging to do on our own. They made the process worry-free for us but were always good about keeping us informed throughout all decisions and repairs. I would highly recommend Innovative Building & Design for any of your home needs!!! Top notch!!!

Richard House did a fantastic job estimating and dealing with my insurance company.

His team at Innovative installed my roof quickly and cleaned up every day - a quality roof installation, and a very professional team all the way around. I would highly recommend Richard House and Innovative Construction again, I would use them again in a heartbeat!

Innovative Building and Design came out to help with a half finished storm damage project. Our original contractor left us with over half the siding gone, trim and venting issues and became unresponsive. The very same day I inquired for help, Dave W. and his construction superintendent came to inspect the job. The owner also came out to see what was going on and we’re eager to help get the job done for us! They gave a very fair bid, kept me updated through the whole project and had it completed in a matter of weeks. They listened to our needs, worked with us to get the job done right and did a fantastic job finishing. The teams who came were very personable and just wanted to do the job right. We will definitely be back!

Justin and Innovative Design did a fantastic job of repairing and replacing our roof after a storm. Our insurance company originally turned us down for full coverage after the storm, but Justin met with the adjuster and showed them why we should receive full coverage. We did receive full coverage thanks to him. Innovatives' work was done quickly, professionally and I would highly recommend them.Barbara Beckstead

Innovative reviewInnovative does thorough, high quality work with complete follow up.Justin and Joe and their crew have done several projects on our property through the years. They are experts at design, vision and build. Our examples; they installed an inground pool with complete management of excavation, electrical, plumbing and gas. All the work was thorough and high-quality.After storm damage occurred to our home they were the first people I called. Innovative resided our home as well as a installed a new roof. Not only did they work with us on colors but built architectural improvements on the exterior of our home.Justin and Innovative are accessible and available and dependable. I will continue to work with them and I know numerous people who I have referred them to agree.

Love love love this company!! This is the 2nd time we’ve worked with them and they do not disappoint! This time around we were able to pick out brand new siding as well as a roof! Mike Went above and beyond showing me samples and choices. My house looks amazing and the crews were quick and with 2 little kids and a dog, they took extra time cleaning up small pieces, nails and staples!

Justin & his crew built our beautiful in-ground pool. The pool went in very fast and the guys were great! We were referred by a friend and we would highly recommend Justin for a pool! He was very responsive to all my questions and requests and a very friendly guy! He is very knowledgeable in pools and even helped me with a little pool 101. He also recommended a landscaper that did a fantastic job. Our yard now looks like a resort!

I had the pleasure of working with Justin and his team at Innovative Building & Design. Justin and his team helped me with a leaky roof caused by hail damage we sustained earlier in the year. I called them in the fall last year. Despite being in the middle of their busy season and my last minute planning, they were able to accommodate me and replace my roof along with downspouts. From handling the insurance side to the work itself, I could not have asked for a smoother process. They will definitely be my go-to company in the future. Thank you Justin!

These guys are great! They replaced our roofing and siding that was damaged in the June 2017 storms. I enjoyed working with Kelly Johnson! They do not try to upsell you anything, instead they offered options and listened to our needs. The crew was very professional and did a good job! I highly recommend this company and plan to use them for remodeling projects in the near future!

We had to wait our turn until they could come and do our work. The good guys are always very busy. When our turn came up they got out and efficiently completed roofing and siding. They definitely want to make sure the customer is happy.

After having a tree fall through my house Innovative quickly worked to get the roof as well as the inside of the house repaired. Now inside and outside of the house look like new. Getting this done quickly was very important as it happened during a Minnesota winter. Excellent work and service in a timely manner.

Every single person representing innovative was amazing to work with. They were honest, trustworthy, experienced, took pride in their work, and did a fantastic job cleaning up after their work. Start to finish these guys were awesome!! Very highly recommended! If you need anything call Tony Hardy.

From start to finish it has been a pleasant experience. After having my roof inspected it was obvious that it needed to be replaced. They are experts at dealing with insurance and are very knowledgeable when it comes to
building code. So not only do they fix your house, but they fix it right. They stand behind their work and use the best product. My house looks amazing after the new roof was put on.
I would reccomend them to family and friends.

We had minor siding damage at our house from some recent high winds. Other companies had a minimum charge way over extent of damage. Sent pictures of damage, Innovative sent rough estimate, and set repair time within two days. The craftsman was on time, took pride in his work, and did an extremely professional job! The repair cost was VERY reasonable.

I had new gutters and gutter installed on my house.
They did a fine job with the way house edges go.
The rain gutter are working just fine.
I also had an emergency vent fix on the side of my roof where a raccoon got in.
Fixed it just perfect. Should keep the critters out.
Thanks.

Common Questions From Mankato Homeowners
Does my homeowners insurance cover the April 13, 2026 hail damage?
In most cases, yes. Standard Minnesota homeowners insurance policies cover hail damage to your roof, siding, gutters, and windows. The key is getting the damage documented quickly and filing before your claim window closes. We help you through every step of that process.
How do I know if I really have hail damage?
You may not be able to tell from the ground. Hail damage to shingles often looks like dark spots or bruising that’s only visible up close. We offer free inspections — honest answer, no obligation.
Will I have to pay out of pocket?
If the damage is covered by your insurance claim, your primary cost is your deductible. We work directly with your adjuster to maximize your claim coverage.
