Professional Seamless Gutter Installation

Water Flows Away, Problems Stay Away

Your gutters should handle Minnesota’s worst weather without you thinking about them. When they’re sized right and installed properly, water flows exactly where it should – away from your foundation, away from your landscaping, away from your basement.

No more watching water cascade over the sides during heavy rains. No more ice dams forming because your gutters can’t handle the runoff. No more foundation settling or basement moisture issues that trace back to poor water management.

Seamless gutters custom-formed on your property eliminate the weak points where sections connect. That means fewer leaks, less maintenance, and better protection for the long haul. You get gutters that work with your roofline, not against it.

Our Gutter Installation Process

Measured, Formed, and Installed On-Site

We start by measuring your roofline and calculating proper water flow based on your roof’s square footage and pitch. This determines the right gutter size and downspout placement for your specific situation.

Your seamless gutters are formed on-site using our portable equipment. This eliminates joints and seams that typically fail over time. We cut each section to the exact length needed for your home.

Installation includes proper fascia attachment, correct slope for drainage, and strategic downspout placement. We test water flow before we leave and clean up completely. You get gutters that handle Minnesota weather from day one.

Everything You Need for Proper Drainage

Your gutter installation includes seamless aluminum gutters formed to exact specifications, heavy-duty hangers rated for snow loads, and properly sized downspouts with extensions to direct water away from your foundation.

We handle gutter guards if you want them, though we’ll give you honest advice about whether they make sense for your situation. If you’re dealing with ice dam issues, we can coordinate gutter work with roof ventilation improvements.

Minnesota homeowners often need larger gutters than standard 5-inch systems. We size everything based on your roof area and local rainfall data, not just what looks standard. Your gutters need to handle spring snowmelt and summer downpours equally well.

Gutter size depends on your roof’s square footage, pitch, and the amount of water it sheds during heavy rains. Most homes need 5-inch gutters, but larger roofs or steep pitches often require 6-inch systems. We calculate this based on your specific roof measurements and local rainfall data. Undersized gutters overflow during storms, while oversized gutters look disproportionate and cost more than necessary. The key is matching capacity to your roof’s actual water volume, which we determine during our initial assessment.
Seamless gutters are formed on-site in continuous lengths that match your roofline exactly. Sectional gutters come in standard lengths that connect together with joints and seams. The main advantage of seamless is fewer leak points – every joint in sectional gutters is a potential failure spot over time. Seamless gutters also look cleaner and require less maintenance. While sectional gutters cost less upfront, seamless gutters typically last longer and perform better, especially in Minnesota’s freeze-thaw climate where expansion and contraction stress the connections.
Properly installed gutters don’t prevent ice dams by themselves, but they’re part of the solution. Ice dams form when snow melts on warm roof sections and refreezes at cold edges. Gutters sized correctly for spring snowmelt help manage the water volume when dams do melt. More importantly, gutter installation often reveals ventilation problems that contribute to ice dams. We can coordinate gutter work with roof ventilation improvements to address the root cause. Heated gutter cables are an option, but fixing the ventilation issue works better long-term.
Usually, yes. Roofing work requires removing gutters anyway, and old gutters rarely fit perfectly with new roofing materials. New shingles change the drip edge slightly, and you want gutters positioned correctly for the new roof line. Doing both projects together also saves on labor costs and ensures everything integrates properly. If your gutters are relatively new and in good condition, we can sometimes reinstall them, but most homeowners find it makes sense to upgrade both systems at once for better performance and appearance.
Most residential gutter installations take one to two days, depending on your home’s size and complexity. Simple ranch homes often finish in a day, while two-story homes with multiple roof lines take longer. Weather affects timing – we don’t install gutters in rain or when temperatures are too cold for proper sealant curing. If we’re coordinating with roofing or siding work, gutters typically happen near the end of the project sequence. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during our initial consultation based on your specific situation and current project schedule.
New gutters need cleaning twice yearly – typically spring and fall. Remove leaves, debris, and check that downspouts drain freely. Look for any loose hangers or small leaks that develop over time. Seamless gutters require less maintenance than sectional systems because there are fewer joints to check. Minnesota’s freeze-thaw cycles can shift hangers slightly over time, so annual inspection helps catch small issues before they become bigger problems. Gutter guards reduce cleaning frequency but don’t eliminate maintenance entirely. Most homeowners can handle basic cleaning, though professional cleaning is safer for two-story homes.
