Trusted Craftsmanship for Timeless Homes

Tucked between tree-lined streets and manicured gardens, Historic Edina is home to some of the most charming and architecturally rich homes in the Twin Cities. At New Leaf Restorations, we specialize in rot repair and thoughtful renovations that preserve the distinct character of these homes—while ensuring they stand strong for generations to come.

From early 20th-century Tudors and Colonials to post-war gems with original millwork and plaster, our team brings deep experience in working with the materials, layouts, and craftsmanship that define Edina’s historic homes.

Rot Repair for Historic Edina Homes

Moisture damage is a common issue in older homes—and if left unchecked, it can compromise both the structure and historic integrity of your property. Our rot repair services go beyond surface fixes. We investigate the source of the problem, eliminate it, and rebuild affected areas with care and period-appropriate materials.

Our rot repair services include:

• Repair and replacement of rotted wood siding, fascia, and trim

• Restoration of historic porches, soffits, and entryways

• Custom millwork replication to match original profiles

• Water management solutions: gutter, flashing, and drainage upgrades

• Full transparency about what can be preserved vs. what needs replacement

We aim to preserve original materials whenever possible—and when we can’t, we replicate them with precision.
