They were very responsive when I reached out. They worked around my schedule, showed up when they said they would be there. Very nice and did excellent work in a timely manner.
The First Fruits crew was quick, professional and courteous!. Service was completed in less than a day with an amazing clean up. The owners were knowledgeable with a great deal of experience. I love using local companies and small businesses, especially with a Christian base.
On a personal note, I appreciate how respectful of my wife and I Derrick was. I'm sure it took some courage to approach our little queer household as a Christian company, but I am glad that he did. He and his company embody the values of kindness and loving thy neighbor, and that is something we needed to see and be reminded of in these times, so thank you.
First Fruits put a new roof on our home a week ago and it was a delightful experience. Not only was the sales person Carly friendly and knowledgeable, but the entire team showed respect, interest, and care during the entire process. I would highly recommend this company to anyone. Five out of five stars…… if I could give them more, I sure would🤗

We are so grateful for the team at First Fruits Construction! When we needed new siding after a tornado, we checked into a few siding companies. If you’re looking for siding in Des Moines, save yourself some time and call First Fruits Construction first!

Frequently Asked Questions
Common Client Questions
What should I do if I think my home has storm damage?
The first step is to schedule a free inspection. Our experts will check your roof, siding, gutters, and other exterior features for any signs of damage—even the kind that’s hard to spot from the ground. We’ll give you an honest assessment and a clear plan, with no pressure and no gimmicks. Catching damage early helps prevent bigger, costlier problems down the road.
What does the inspection process look like?
Think of it as a health check for your home. One of our experienced team members comes out, takes a careful look at your exterior, and explains everything we find in simple, straightforward terms. You’ll get honest advice and a simple plan to keep your home strong and looking great. From there, the choice is always yours—we’re here to educate, not pressure.
Can you help with my insurance claim?
While we’re not public adjusters, we have extensive experience working alongside homeowners on property restoration projects. We provide accurate assessments of your roof damage, repair scope, and costs, and we’re happy to meet with your adjuster and stay involved throughout the process. Many of our customers tell us we took the stress right out of working with insurance—and that’s exactly what we aim to do.
