Award-Winning Mound Home Remodeler
Mound was settled in the 1850s and incorporated in 1912, and its history is inseparable from Lake Minnetonka, which surrounds the city on nearly every side. Early visitors arrived by steamboat and train to resorts like the Chapman House, Bartlett Place, and Mound City House, and the neighborhoods that make up Mound today, Three Points, Island Park, Halstead Heights, Shadywood Point, The Highlands, Phelps Island, and Shirley Hills, were annexed into the city gradually between the 1950s and 1960s. That layered annexation history means Mound’s housing stock varies block by block, from established single-family homes to newer luxury construction and townhomes. Boyer Building Corporation is a Mound remodeler familiar with this patchwork of neighborhoods and the lake access that touches nearly every one of them.
Mound Home Remodeling Experts
Mound’s geography, half land and half water, means lake access shapes nearly every remodeling conversation in the city, even for homes not directly on the shoreline. A remodeler who works in Mound regularly learns how each of its distinct neighborhoods, from Three Points to Shirley Hills, was originally developed, which pockets carry deed restrictions from their annexation era, and where shoreline and setback rules apply given how much of the city touches the water. That neighborhood-by-neighborhood knowledge keeps Mound projects predictable, whether the home is a modest single-family property or a newer lakefront build.

Boyer Building Corporation Remodeling Services
Mound’s mix of established single-family neighborhoods and newer lakefront construction spans a wide range of remodeling needs.
Kitchen Remodeling – Kitchens can vary by neighborhood and era, from mid-century layouts in the city’s older annexed areas to more open designs in newer construction. We tailor each kitchen remodel to the home’s original architecture and the way the current family gathers.
Bathroom Remodeling – Bathrooms in established homes are often original or updated only once. We rebuild these into efficient, current spaces suited to the scale of the home and the lifestyle of the homeowners.
Decks, Porches, and Three-Season Spaces – With water bordering so much of the city, outdoor living is central to how Mound homeowners use their property. Decks, patios, and dock-adjacent outdoor spaces are consistently high-value additions we build across Mound’s lake-access neighborhoods.
Great Rooms and Main-Level Renovations – Many of Mound’s older homes were built with separated living and dining spaces. Opening these into a great room is a common renovation across the city’s established neighborhoods.
Lower Level Finishing – Mound’s homes near the water frequently have walkout lower levels that were finished years ago or never finished. We can rebuild these into genuine living spaces, from guest suites to entertaining areas.
Exterior Renovation – Exterior remodels are where homes can change their identity completely. We coordinate siding, windows, doors, roofing, and trim as one design decision rather than a series of separate projects. The result is an exterior that is truly cohesive.
Home Office – A spare bedroom or underused den in an established Mound home is a common candidate for conversion into a functioning home office.
Bedroom and Primary Suite – Primary suites in older homes are often modest in scale. We focus on making the most of the existing footprint: a better closet, a rebuilt bath, and finishes that elevate the space.
Specialties – We work with homeowners to reimagine their home with tasteful entrances, stairways, mudrooms, and game rooms. We not only add to their homes’ beauty but also to their utility with thoughtful design and construction.

Remodeling FAQs
All new construction and remodeling work comes with a written warranty that meets or exceeds Minnesota statutory requirements: one year on workmanship and materials, two years on plumbing, electrical, and HVAC, and ten years on major structural elements. Beyond the warranty, our team responds to questions and small follow-up items for years after a project closes — that’s part of how referrals get earned.
Recent recognition includes 2025 NARI-MN Remodeler of the Year Gold and Silver awards, the 2025 Housing First ROMA awards, Lake Minnetonka Magazine’s 2024 and 2025 “Best Of” recognition in both the Remodeler and Builder categories, and multiple NARI-MN Contractor of the Year wins going back through 2023. Awards aren’t the reason to hire a builder, but they’re a useful signal that the work meets a professional standard reviewed by peers.
Yes. Boyer Building is a licensed and insured Mound remodeler and builder, and is familiar with Mound’s permitting requirements and inspection process.
Most projects move through five stages: an initial consultation to understand your goals and constraints; a design and budget development phase where the project takes shape on paper; a detailed proposal and contract; construction with a dedicated project manager and lead carpenter; and a final walkthrough plus warranty service. You work with the same core team from start to finish.
The simplest first step is to call our office at 952-475-2097 or send a message through the contact form. We’ll set up an introductory conversation, ask about your home and what you’re hoping to accomplish, and walk through next steps from there.
Yes. Boyer manages the permitting and inspection process with the Mound building department as part of every project scope.
The first conversation — in your home or at our office — is at no cost. Once we move into detailed design work, there’s a design fee that’s clearly outlined upfront. That fee covers the time of our designers and is credited against the project if you move forward into construction.
Not necessarily. Boyer is a design-build firm, which means our in-house design team can take a project from initial concept through construction documents. For projects with unusual structural complexity or historic considerations, we’ll bring in an outside architect when it serves the project. Either way, you have one team accountable for the result.
Yes. We’re glad to share our project portfolio for every community that we serve. Our blog and the project gallery on this site page include completed work throughout the Twin Cities Western Suburbs.
