A fast-moving storm swept across the Twin Cities metro area on the evening of September 21st, 2025, bringing strong winds and large hail that caused widespread property damage. Many homeowners in Minnetonka and Woodbury reported hailstones measuring up to two inches in diameter, with similar reports coming from South St. Paul, Wayzata, Deephaven, and Inver Grove Heights. With hail this size, the risk of roof damage is significant, even when it is not immediately visible from the ground.

Liberte Construction, a trusted local roofing and restoration company, is reminding Twin Cities homeowners to schedule professional inspections to assess storm-related damage. The company has been serving the Twin Cities under the same name and number since 2008 and is one of the few local contractors that specialize full-time, year-round, in storm damage claims.
“We have seen storms like this cause major damage that homeowners don’t notice until months later when leaks appear or insurance deadlines have passed,” said David Laiberte, owner of Liberte Construction. “Our team’s job is to make sure homeowners get a fair and honest settlement, without the stress and confusion that can come from navigating the claims process alone.”
Filing a property insurance claim can be complicated and is not something most people do regularly. If certain procedures are not followed, the process can quickly become stressful and time-consuming. Unfortunately, storm victims often become victims again through unfair or inadequate insurance settlements. While most insurance companies aim to serve their clients properly, their primary objective is to minimize loss and maximize profit.
When not held accountable, insurance adjusters can mistakenly overlook damage or underpay for necessary repairs. Liberte Construction’s knowledgeable and courteous staff act as advocates for homeowners, ensuring that every customer receives a fair and honest settlement. The company follows uniform pricing guidelines established by the National Insurance Standards and has established working relationships with all major insurance companies.
Over the years, Liberte Construction has processed thousands of property insurance claims throughout the Twin Cities. Its reputation for reliable storm and hail damage repair continues to set the standard in Minnesota.
A Minnetonka homeowner shared their experience: “I've never seen hail this bad in Minnetonka either. I was trying to put my kids to bed and thought it was just a branch on the roof until it sounded like the apocalypse.”
