St. Croix County Strong. Zero Corners Cut.
New Richmond is one of the fastest growing cities in St. Croix County and has been drawing families and professionals from the Twin Cities corridor for over two decades. The city sits along Highway 64 and offers the combination of strong schools, established neighborhoods, and small city character that makes western Wisconsin communities so appealing to homeowners looking for more space and a quieter pace. Homes range from historic in-town properties near downtown to sprawling newer construction subdivisions that have grown up on every edge of the city over the past twenty years.
St. Croix County winters are hard on home exteriors regardless of how new the construction is. Freeze-thaw cycling forces moisture into siding joints, window frames, and deck boards every single winter. Newer homes aren't immune. Builder-grade windows and siding installed during the construction boom of the early 2000s are hitting the age where seal failures and siding deterioration are showing up consistently. Older in-town properties have been dealing with these problems for decades.
Shane Ward brings the same direct, hands-on approach to every New Richmond job. He builds every deck personally, installs every siding run with his own crew, and replaces every window himself. No subcontractors, no call centers, no project handed off to someone you've never met. Shane pulls his own permits, knows St. Croix County requirements inside and out, and answers his own phone at 715-808-5260.

New Richmond WI Exterior FAQ
My windows are fogging up between the panes even though the house isn't that old, what's going on?
Builder-grade windows installed during New Richmond's early 2000s construction boom are hitting the age where seals fail, and it's not really about how old the house feels, it's about how the original windows were built. Fog or condensation between the panes means the sealed unit's compromised. If your home was built between 1995 and 2010, it's worth having Shane take a look when he comes out for your estimate.
What's a real deck going to cost me in New Richmond?
Depends on size, materials, elevation, and how complex the design gets. A basic pressure-treated deck usually starts around $8,000 to $12,000. Go bigger with composite decking, railings, and stairs and you're at $20,000 or more. Shane gives you a free on-site estimate and quotes the real number up front. What he quotes is what you pay.
Do you actually make it out to New Richmond and the rest of St. Croix County?
Yes. Shane regularly works New Richmond and throughout St. Croix County, Baldwin, Hudson, Roberts, Somerset, and everywhere in between. Call 715-808-5260 to talk through your project.
Do I have to deal with permits myself?
No. Shane handles all required permitting as part of every deck build in New Richmond and St. Croix County. He knows the local requirements and takes the whole process off your plate.
My siding is starting to crack and pull away at the seams, is that normal for a newer home?
More common than people expect. Siding installed during New Richmond's construction boom is hitting the age where seams start pulling away at penetrations and corners, and cracking or fading shows up right along with it. Whether your home's from the 90s or the 2000s, if the siding's original, it's worth having Shane check the actual condition rather than assuming newer means fine.
What happens when I ask for an estimate?
Call or text Shane at 715-808-5260, or use the form on this site. He schedules a time to walk the project with you, looks at the real scope of work, and hands you a detailed written estimate, no charge. No pressure, no sales pitch, just a straight answer.
Can you actually get work done in the middle of a St. Croix County winter, or does everything wait until spring?
Depends on the project. Siding and soffit work can often continue through cooler months with the right conditions. Deck builds typically run spring through fall. Shane gives you an honest timeline based on your specific project and the time of year, not a generic answer.
Am I hiring Shane, or does he hand my project off to a crew?
Shane's hands-on at every job. He builds every deck personally, runs every siding install with his own crew, and replaces every window himself. No subcontractors, no project managers, no one you've never met showing up at your house. Call 715-808-5260 and you reach Shane directly.
