Storm damaged window repair in Plymouth: JMB Builders photographs each window hit by hail or wind, including dented aluminum cladding and cracked glass in large picture windows, writes up glass, sash, cladding or whole unit, meets your adjuster when you want us there, and repairs what your approved scope covers. You file and handle the claim. Window-by-window pricing; start with photos or a free in-home estimate.
- Priced per window
- Clad, wood, vinyl and picture windows
- Labeled photos and a line-item list
Hail and straight-line wind are part of Minnesota summers, and Plymouth's housing carries a lot of the windows that show storm damage in quieter ways. Clad-wood windows dent in the aluminum cladding without breaking the glass. Fiberglass frames chip. Large picture and specialty windows, common in the bigger two-stories, can crack from one corner after a hit, and their size means the glass is made to order.
The first thing is to find it all. We go around the house with a ladder, photograph each hit with a tape in the shot, and label it by side of the house and window. Dented cladding goes on the list next to cracked glass, because a dent that opens a seam lets water reach the wood underneath.
The claim is yours: you file it and you talk to your insurer. We give you the photos and a line-item scope, walk the windows with the adjuster when you want us there, and do the work once it is approved. Under Minnesota law a contractor cannot waive, rebate or pay any part of your deductible, and we never offer to. For coverage and filing deadlines, check your policy and ask your agent.

How it is priced: per window
Quoted in writing from your photos, with a reply within one business day. What moves the number:
- Glass only vs. sash vs. cladding vs. a whole window
- Window size, especially large picture and specialty shapes
- Clad wood, fiberglass or vinyl, and whether the maker still supplies parts
- Second-story and high windows that need ladders or staging
- Matching stained interior trim if it has to come off
- Upgrades beyond like-for-like, paid on top of the approved scope
Send a photo of each damaged window, a close-up of each hit, and any brand label on the jamb or between the panes.
How long it takes
Glass, sashes and windows are made to order, and large or shaped glass takes longest. Once parts are here, glass and sash swaps are a few hours each; a whole window is about half a day.

Storm Damaged Window Repair in Plymouth, MN: questions, answered
How do I spot hail damage on clad-wood windows?
Look at the aluminum cladding on the sill and the bottom of the sash, the parts that face up. Hail leaves round dents there, sometimes with the paint cracked. From the ground they are easy to miss; from a ladder with light across the surface they show up. Photograph them with a coin or tape for scale.
Can a large picture window be repaired after a storm in Plymouth?
If the frame is sound, the cracked glass unit is replaced with a new one made to the same size and makeup. Large and shaped glass is made to order, so the wait is longer. If the frame is damaged too, the whole window is replaced.
Are dents in window cladding covered by insurance?
That is up to your policy and your adjuster. What we do is document the dents clearly and list them so the adjuster sees them. Check your policy and ask your agent how cosmetic damage is handled.
Do you meet the adjuster for window claims in Plymouth?
Yes, when you want us there. We walk the windows with the adjuster using the photos and list you already have. You file the claim and talk to your insurer; we explain the damage and the repair.
Can a contractor cover my deductible on a window claim?
No. Minnesota law bars a contractor from waiving, rebating or paying any part of your insurance deductible, and JMB Builders does not do it. The deductible is your share of the repair.
Do you repair storm damaged windows near Plymouth?
Yes, across the west metro, including Maple Grove and New Hope. We are a licensed Minnesota residential building contractor, BC809005, out of Zimmerman. Send photos and we reply within one business day, or book a free in-home estimate.
