Not Sure Where to Start? We'll Help You Find the Right Fit.

Ham Lake's rural-residential character means more property, more structures, and more exterior surface area to think about. Innovative Building & Design has been serving Ham Lake homeowners from our Blaine location since 2008. We understand the specific demands of rural Anoka County properties — larger homes, detached garages, outbuildings, and homeowners who expect straight talk and honest work without the sales pressure. We carry James Hardie, LP SmartSide, vinyl, and seamless steel — and we'll help you find the right product for your home and your budget.

Ham Lake properties often have more going on than a typical suburban siding job — main house, detached garage, sometimes a pole barn or workshop that also needs attention. Choosing the right siding material means thinking about durability, maintenance, and how the exterior holds up through decades of Minnesota winters on a rural property. Our team will walk your entire property, assess every structure that needs attention, and use our Hover visualization tool to show you how your Ham Lake home will look before you commit to anything. No pressure. No upselling. Just honest guidance from a team that's been doing this for nearly 20 years.

Every Style. Every Budget. One Trusted Installer.

We work with all major siding manufacturers so we can match the right product to your home and your budget. Our siding installation and replacement services cover every material and every budget — with VSI-certified installers who know what holds up in a Minnesota climate. Here’s what we install:

James Hardie Fiber Cement

The gold standard in siding durability. James Hardie fiber cement is engineered to resist Minnesota's freeze-thaw cycles, moisture, and impact. It looks like wood but never rots, warps, or requires painting as often. A premium choice that adds serious long-term value.

LP SmartSide Engineered Wood

LP SmartSide gives you the warmth and beauty of real wood with dramatically better performance. It's treated to resist moisture, fungal decay, and impact — and it's one of the most popular choices for homeowners who want a natural look without the maintenance.

Vinyl Siding

Low maintenance, cost-effective, and available in more colors and profiles than any other material. We install all major vinyl brands including Alside, Mastic, and Royal — so you get the look you want at a price that makes sense.

Seamless Aluminum & Steel

For homeowners who want maximum durability and a clean, modern look, seamless aluminum and steel siding delivers. It's dent-resistant, fade-resistant, and built to last decades with minimal upkeep.

Why Ham Lake Homeowners Choose Innovative Building & Design for Siding

Ham Lake homeowners are practical — they want to know what’s wrong, what it costs, and who’s going to be accountable when the job is done. After 17 years in the north metro, that’s exactly the reputation we’ve built. We work throughout rural Anoka County, we know what Ham Lake properties involve, and we bring VSI-certified installation standards to every job regardless of size. Because we’re based in Blaine just minutes away, we’ll be here for the warranty call too. We’re not the cheapest option — but on a rural property with multiple structures, you really don’t want the cheapest option.

VSI Certified Installer

VSI certification means our installers have been trained and tested to meet the industry's highest standards for siding installation. Most contractors don't have it. We do.

All Major Brands

We're not locked into one manufacturer. That means we can recommend the product that's genuinely right for your home — not just the one we have a deal to sell.

On-Site Project Manager

Every siding project has an IBD project manager on site from start to finish. You'll always know who to call, and our crew will always know exactly what's expected.

Clean Job Site

We treat your property with respect. Every job ends with a thorough cleanup — debris removed, landscaping protected, and your home left looking better than when we arrived.

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.

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. Everyone we interacted with were friendly and respectful. They will be the first company I turn to for any future projects. Highly recommend!

Common Questions From Ham Lake MN Homeowners

Quality siding installed correctly lasts 30–50 years depending on the material. James Hardie fiber cement is one of the most durable options available — engineered specifically to handle Minnesota’s freeze-thaw cycles, moisture, and impact. LP SmartSide and seamless steel are also excellent long-term investments. We’ll help you match the right material to your home and your budget.

Both are premium engineered products that outperform vinyl and wood in Minnesota’s climate. James Hardie fiber cement is heavier, harder, and holds paint longer — it’s the gold standard for durability. LP SmartSide is engineered wood — lighter, easier to install, and excellent at resisting moisture and impact. We install both and will give you an honest recommendation based on your home and your goals.

Yes — especially when combined with new house wrap and insulation during installation. Properly installed siding eliminates air gaps, reduces drafts, and can meaningfully improve your home’s thermal performance. We’ll assess your current exterior and let you know what options make sense.

Yes — we use Hover, a photo-realistic home visualization tool, to show you exactly how different siding styles and colors will look on your actual home before anything is ordered. No guessing, no surprises.

Yes. New siding is a significant investment and we offer flexible financing options to help you get the exterior your home deserves without the sticker shock. Ask us about current financing offers when you request your free estimate.
