Gutters

Gutter Installation & Replacement in Minnetonka & the Twin Cities

Gutters that protect your home. Installed right. No chasing us for updates.

Your gutters are the drainage system for your entire roof. When they fail — through improper installation, age, or storm damage — the consequences go beyond the gutters themselves: foundation damage, siding staining, basement moisture, and landscaping erosion. We install gutter systems that handle what Minnesota weather throws at them and give you a clear answer on what your home actually needs before any work begins.

  • Seamless aluminum fabricated on-site
  • Repair-vs-replace honesty — not a default upsell
  • Proper hanger spacing for Minnesota snow load
  • Downspout placement that protects your foundation

Our Approach

Gutter Services We Provide

Seamless aluminum gutters are the standard for Minnesota homes — and for good reason. Fabricated on-site to the exact dimensions of your roofline, seamless gutters eliminate the seams where leaks start. They are custom-fit, installed in one continuous run per section, and far more durable over time than sectional gutters pieced together from pre-cut lengths.

We handle full replacement, isolated repairs, downspout installation and relocation, and gutter guard evaluation. We tell you which one actually applies — not what generates the bigger job.

Profiles & Materials

Types of Gutters We Install

Seamless Aluminum

The most practical and cost-effective gutter solution for Minnesota homes. Available in 5-inch and 6-inch profiles. Aluminum does not rust, holds paint well, and handles freeze-thaw cycles without cracking. Wide range of colors to match your home.

K-Style

The most common gutter profile in residential construction. Flat back, decorative front. Holds more water volume than half-round at the same width — the practical choice for most Twin Cities homes.

Half-Round

Traditional rounded profile that suits historic and craftsman-style homes architecturally. Slightly less capacity than K-style at the same width, but a cleaner aesthetic on the right home. Available in aluminum and copper.

Copper

A premium option for homes where visual detail matters. Develops a natural patina over time and never rusts. Long-lasting and distinctive — strong choice for high-end historic properties.

Steel

More durable than aluminum and better suited to heavy debris load and physical impact. A practical upgrade for homes in wooded areas where branches are a factor.

Gutter Guards

Reduce debris accumulation and cleaning frequency — meaningful for homes with significant tree coverage. Not maintenance-free and not the right call for every home. We give you an honest assessment.

Climate

Why Gutters Matter More in Minnesota

Snow and Ice Load

Heavy snow accumulation on gutters is a real structural concern. Improperly fastened gutters or gutters without adequate hanger spacing pull away from fascia under snow load. We install with proper hanger spacing and fascia attachment.

Ice Dams

Ice dams form when heat escaping through the roof melts snow that refreezes at the cold eave. Gutters filled with ice cannot drain. Proper slope reduces the damage ice dams cause.

Spring Runoff Volume

Spring snowmelt produces significant water volume in a short period. Undersized gutters, improper slope, or too few downspouts lead to overflow — sending water directly against your foundation.

Debris from Tree Coverage

The western Twin Cities suburbs have dense tree coverage. Proper gutter sizing, guard options, and downspout configuration all affect how your system performs through debris season.
