Real answers to the questions Saint Paul homeowners actually ask.
Before the first phone call, most homeowners want to know if Rayco is the right fit. These answers cut through the uncertainty so you can reach out with confidence.
What kinds of projects does Rayco Construction handle?
Rayco specializes in residential remodeling, roofing repairs, full roof installations, and practical home repairs and installations. The best fit is a Saint Paul-area homeowner who wants clear scoping, upfront communication, and construction that holds up — not just looks good on day one.
What areas does Rayco serve?
Rayco Construction is based in Saint Paul, Minnesota, and serves homeowners across the Twin Cities metro, including Maplewood, North St. Paul, Woodbury, and surrounding communities.
Who started Rayco Construction?
Rayco was founded by Duane Nelson and remains a family-owned business. Duane stays personally involved in projects, which means homeowners deal with someone who has a direct stake in the quality of the work.
My roof was damaged in a storm. Can Rayco help?
Yes. Rayco can inspect the damage, document what is visible, explain your repair or replacement options clearly, and complete the work when you are ready. Acting quickly after storm damage helps prevent secondary issues like water infiltration and mold growth.
How do I get started? What do I need to have ready?
Not much. A quick description of the problem or project, the property address, and a rough sense of timing is plenty. Photos of visible damage or problem areas help too. Rayco reviews every request and follows up to schedule a walkthrough.
How does Rayco handle pricing and estimates?
Rayco walks the project in person before quoting any numbers. Estimates separate required work from optional improvements so you know exactly what you are paying for and why. There are no surprise charges for work that was not agreed to upfront.
